Why are we obsessed with virginity?
While I do think it's entirely possible for someone to abstain from sex until marriage, statistically it's not very realistic and it also leads me to wonder why we are culturally so obsessed with the idea of virginity, specifically girls' virginity, since you rarely see abstinence-only messaging aimed at boys.
Empathy and self-esteem seem to enhance sexual enjoyment among young adults, which in turn is linked to healthy psychological and social development.
