    Because they are extremely immature, have no respect for themselves or other people, and upset because they're not virgins anymore out of spite and jealously. The standards for society is forever changing and is changing every day. And it's not for the better. I've seen more of these people who insults others sexual status have more problems psychologically than those who don't do it. Nearly 90% of the world's population expects you and basically everybody to be sexually involved but shames others who decided to not conform to those ways. Being one myself, I have received far more respect being one and my behavior, attitude towards life, etc shows the fruits of what it means to be one than if you weren't. And being one also taught me that virginity is also YOU and not just a part of you. Having hatred for it is saying you hate yourself. Plus they use it because they have issues with themselves and often regret losing theirs. So there is a lot of envy, jealousy and resentment.

    Because if a person is still a virgin at a certain age, some people will make the following equation in their heads:
    Virginity = sexually unattractive = unattractive person = no one likes you = bad personality, bad grades, bad whatever = someone to be avoided = invitiation for an insult

    Geddit? The reasons are basically a really long string of unwarranted, unjustified, and ignorant assumptions about someone.

    Normally used for a man as typically an "alpha" is one who can court women.

    I think this is true, however not necessarily does it need to be sexually.

    An alpha can also be one who courts a single person, but to call someone a virgin is implying they are so undesirable no one would want them.

    For men, it's a shaming tactic that questions your masculinity. A man's status or worth is how many quality women he can have sex with.

      And a women is worth less for having contributed to increasing a man's worth. Should women stop putting out to maintain their value, or should men stop shaming them for putting out?

      @dragonfly6516 Not true. A woman's worth is her attractiveness and in exchange for sex, she gets a better lifestyle with high status men. Simple economics. Something that is easily obtained has no value. If you look at sex as a commodity where men are the buyers and women are the sellers, women that puts out easily have low value. As for the men shaming promiscuous women, people generally get jealous of things that only a select few can obtain.

      I agree with your analogy on supply and demand, but my question still stands. How are "men" supposed to be "men" and land multiple women, if women are being "ladies" and not putting out until marriage? We're damned if we do and damned if we don't. You're still going to brand us if we don't give you what you want.

      @dragonfly6516 I'm not a traditional man by today's standards. Don't want kids or get married. I don't care about a woman's sexual past as long "I get what I want" and she's STD free. To answer your question, thanks to women's sexual liberation through feminism, high status men will always have a steady stream of women wanting to give it up. If there's a woman that wants to wait till marriage, there's one across the street that's willing to fulfill his needs. Women can either save themselves for virgin nice guys that still believe in "marriage"... BORING, or be with men that doesn't believe in marriage where her history doesn't matter. Can't have your cake and eat it too. However, high value men can.

      I'm not traditional. I'm non-monogamous, and sapeosexual. I commit to one romantic partner, but sex is a physical act that ain't got shit to do with love. It doesn't matter how many partners you have as long as everyone is honest clean and safe. I get regular checkups, I only sleep with other men who do the same, and there is no excuse to not use a condom every time, unless you're trying to get pregnant, or catch an STD/I intentionally.

      lol @dragonfly6516 what planet you from? On this planet though, no woman is shamed or damned for not putting out, they are actually respected.

      Most men (not manchilds) would gladly actually wait If it is the right pure woman they see marriage potential in. I've seen it happen multiple times.

      But If you want to go out there and make a man feel like a "man" for sleeping with multiple women, go ahead and be my guest. lol

      Christ! I don't know what type of human-being with such beliefs you hang out with.

      Um, you need to learn to read. Women are shamed by other women if they DO put out for anyone who isn't their husband, and shamed by men if they've had more than 3 partners. And as Dr. Truth pointed out, some guys will spread rumors that a girl is a slut if she doesn't sleep with them.

      Yeah, so it is wiser to fuck that boy so that he doesn't spread rumours that I am a slut, and even he does spread gossip that I am a slut it would actually be true because I did sleep with him. lol there is literally no sense in what you are saying.

      Do you know the true reason and symbolism in old times as to why women wore white on their wedding day and were celebrated by everyone? When you find it out, come let's have a discussion.

      White was a color that was hard to keep clean. It was a symbol of status. I'm sure what kind of idea you have about me, but in anything but traditional. I don't like the fact I can't go out and have fun as adult workout being judged. I don't even believe in monogamy. Mammals as a species are not designed for monogamy.

      Yeah, it seems sane to compare yourself to animals who live in the jungle and act on instinct without any form of discipline, laws or code of conducts guiding them.

      I don't know about you but I as a human am far higher than animals in thinking. I am not guided by the basic instincts of food, shelter, sex e. t. c I can aspire to be far above those. Sex and the rest don't rule me as I am disciplined and in control of my body.

      Last I checked, Gold and purple symbolised royalty and high status. Wearing white on your wedding day symbolised purity, which brought tears to the eyes of parents and family and the groom when watching his wife walk down the Isle. But alas, nowadays that means nothing lol. Women like that were never gossiped about lol they were praised and respected. You need to switch up your friends who have been lying to you.

      Haha lmao. No. Only rich women who didn't need work could afford to buy a special dress that they would only wear once. And since white was impossible to keto clean, it was an impractical choice, and this only rich women wore them initially. It wasn't until the queen wore one on her wedding day that it became the trendy standard, in the 1800's. I was unaware that having a boyfriend and one other guy on the side occasionally was behaving lime a jungle animal. Did you know that monogamy is mostly a reptilian and avian trait? Or that homosexuality is found in several species? That 5 known species other than humans have sex die pleasure? Or that almost all mammals are either opportunistic breeders or live in packs with a few males sharing all the females?
      My friends are all monogamous.

      I get to know guys for a minimum of two weeks before agreeing to sleep with them. I only sleep with men who get tested and checked up regularly, I get regular testing done. And there is no excuse to not use a condom every time. You obviously don't agree with my views, and that's fine. I can accept that people are going cling to their view of normal, but when is obvious that you haven't read what I've already said in comments before you, then you're either ignorant or trolling and I'm done.

      I can assure you that most sane people in the world don't think it is normal to have a boyfriend and one other guy on the side. You must have sexual addiction (like most people out there who are unaware of it and won't admit it) If you need so much sex that one person can't satisfy you. Sex is not a basic need like food, water and shelter.

      Many people live without ever having sex, but between those people and people like you, I know there is reasonable line that can be drawn.

      Get help for your addiction and stop using jungle animal biology to defend your actions as a human being, I'm done.

      You only say that because you are grateful to women like dragonfly who provide you with the much needed pleasure to boost your ego and feel like a 'man'.

      Off course, it is impossible to stop some girls from putting out to guys like you or at least regain whatever is left of any shred of dignity they have left.

      But If you think it is normal for your future wife or girlfriend to have a fuck buddy on the side like dragonfly here thinks it is, you are gladly obliged to jump right on the crazy freak train at the bottom of society. These are a bunch of people who constantly whine like victims and blame society for not allowing them to fuck as much as they'd like to without being judged. God forbid sanity and morality exist on this planet to them. They revel in chaos and rebelliousness.

      To each their own.

    Because men are seen as weak for being virgins, since that means he's incapable of finding a girl, and that's "unmanly".
    Girls see you as weak too, they feel like if no girl has wanted to be with you, then there's something wrong with you.
