PLEASE READ

So, I am a second-generation immigrant from a very traditional and conservative country, now living in one of the most liberal Western countries in the world. I am very grateful to be living here as the quality of life and opportunities are just a lot better; however, needless to say, the cultural differences are immense.

One of the things that always bothered me growing up was this "rush" to lose your virginity, especially as a guy. My friends would drag me along to clubs and stuff, and I'm not a bad-looking guy by any means, and opportunities for me to have "one-night stands" have presented themselves, but I never really had any interest in this.

Call me corny, but the idea of being intimate with someone I do not have a very strong emotional connection with, someone who couldn't be my wife in the future, did not appeal to me.

Guys talk about this stuff, and I am open about this in my friend group as I don't feel like lying about it, but I find myself being the subject of "virgin" jokes quite often, especially considering my age (which isn't an abnormal thing in my home country).

Now, I know it's all in good fun and I know they have no malicious intent, but I can't help but wonder if this would be a problem for potential future mates. So my question to you girls is, if a guy you were dating in his mid to late twenties said he was a virgin, would you immediately associate that with negative attributes? Would this be a problem or perhaps not your first choice, would you be indifferent or heck even prefer it?

Hey there y'all! I'm posting questions again, and I'm picking back up with the Couple Series. If you aren't dating, feel free to still share your thoughts on what you would enjoy :)

So I have two questions, one multiple choice (respond in the poll) and one open response (respond in the comment section).

1) Would you and/or your enjoy playing a game where one partner can't say "no" (unless, of course, the request/idea is unreasonable/unsafe) for an entire day or has to say "yes" to five requests/ideas?

2) If the answer is yes, what (let's say 5) requests/ideas would you come up with?

For me and Raine:
1. Sleep in together 😂 we both work pretty hard and LOVE the few days we get a guilt-free sleeping in pass.
2. Go on a hike and see some nature. Again, this is something we both really enjoy, but don't always do because of time restraints.
3. Shower and then bathe together. After a hike, bathing is going to be really nice. It will also help our muscles relax so that we can sleep well that night and not wake up sore.
4. Watch a romance or drama together since we both enjoy movies/shows.
5. Talk together while cuddling before going to sleep. Those sweet moments mean so much to us.
