6 years is a long time and a lot can happen, OP. Also, "practical" isn't the same as "right" or "cool." I think you're looking for slights where none exist.

(Anonymous) 2012-11-14 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
not OP but do you somehow understand what she meant by "practical"? Because I can't figure it out.

[personal profile] visp 2012-11-14 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
I'd assume she means remaining a virgin while having a sex drive, dating, having a boyfriend/girlfriend and/or marriage - things a whole lot of people do/have by that age.

(Anonymous) 2012-11-14 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Dating, having a significant other, or being married shouldn't render being a virgin "impractical" -- it's one's own decision, for heaven's sake! Who's rendering it "impractical?"

Hey, if you marry someone who's fine with not having sex with you, and that's what you want as well, more power to you. But that's not how it goes for most people.

I think I get it now.

It just didn't occur to her that some people stay inside masturbating.

(Anonymous) 2012-11-14 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
I would high five you for this comment, but considering we both probably spend a lot of time inside masturbating, that's probably not hygienic.

Nice of you to assume. Assumption isn't knowledge or understanding. And just because "a whole lot" do it doesn't mean it's impractical, whatever that means, not to.

(Anonymous) 2012-11-14 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry, but how is being a virgin more or less practical? What exactly is more difficult in my life based on not having had sex?

Also, telling people that they're being impractical is pretty much telling people that they're doing it wrong.

It definitely comes off as judging people for not having sex.

"Practical" doesn't make any sense to me in that context, but it certainly doesn't sound like a compliment.

(Anonymous) 2012-11-14 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh you.

How is being, or not being, a virgin ever something with practicality attached?

[personal profile] deadtree 2012-11-14 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
I still haven't figured out what that even means tbh. Like... what does it even mean?! I'm 27 -- quite nearly 28-- and a virgin and I fail to see the impracticality.
visp: (Default)

[personal profile] visp 2012-11-14 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
Well, for people who date, have a sex drive and/or are married, not having sex might be considered impractical.

(Anonymous) 2012-11-14 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
I'll give you the married, but what makes fucking any more practical? The bigger issue is, who gives her - or you - the right to judge someone else's sexual choices?
visp: (Default)

[personal profile] visp 2012-11-14 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Saying something isn't practical isn't really judging. High heels, nice clothes, vintage cars, collectors items, ocean cruises. People do all sorts of impractical shit all the time, either because they want to or because their specific situations make is less impractical.

But isn't that still a silly thing to say? Yes, it's impractical to be a version if you're having sex--it's impossible. But presumably if the person is a virgin they aren't having sex?

It's like saying being someone who's never eaten meat is impractical if you're eating a hamburger. If you're eating the hamburger you're not a person who's eaten meat.

(Anonymous) 2012-11-14 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
As a vegetarian, not eating meat is HELLA impractical. As a virgin at 23, not so impractical--actually quite easy. Maybe there's a tipping point when you're 25 that makes it the equivalent to voluntarily limiting yourself to one or two dishes on every menu ever, though. I wouldn't know.

...also it took me 20 minutes and a calculator to figure out how old I am. I'm kinda worried about that.

Except from your example being a virgin isn't the impractical part, it's being in a romantic relationship without having sex part that's impractical - and not everyone is in a romantic relationship or wants to be. And that doesn't explain the random age cap she decided on.

People who date and have a sex drive don't have to have sex. It's not a law, there's no danger of their parts exploding or anything.

People who get married have, hopefully, talked about sex *before* getting married, as it's generally a part of being married.

So, uh...do you think virginity at 25 is impractical?
visp: (Default)

[personal profile] visp 2012-11-14 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Depends on the person, I suppose.

I suppose.

But what the heck does "practical" even mean? I have a feeling it means something different to you than it does to me.

I don't find it practical in any way to have long-term relationships or sex. It's a lot of time and attention and effort that I just don't feel I have to spare. I find it practical to be a virgin at 23. I'm not interested in sex, or getting an SO, and it's easier to remain single and not bother with sex. How is this an impracticality?
