It's strange how something quite normal and traditional is seen as odd or some kind of novelty.
@AreolaGrande9410 жыл бұрын
the truth is that in this day and age, being a virgin at age 29 ISN'T normal. The vast majority of Americans lose their virginity at some point in high school. I have several religious friends who stayed virgins until they got married, but ended up actually getting married between 21-25. It is also not biologically normal. A woman's peak sexual maturity is from puberty to about 30-35. I'm just talking about the health of the eggs for procreation here. Women have sex throughout their lives, but the biological drive to have children is strongest at about her age +/- 5-7 years. Being a virgin at 29 is not 'odd' in the sense that it is strange behavior. You have to respect her decision. It is just not 'normal' in that you won't find many 29 year old women who have never had sex in their lives.

EdudLufetips It is normal and this "peak" sexuality theory is wrong.
@AreolaGrande9410 жыл бұрын
Camel76 Um, no. "Normal" refers to an 'average,' 'usual,' or 'typical' state of condition. Let's you and I both do a survey... say, 1,000 people between the ages of 18 and 40, each of a standard population. I am willing to bet my entire net worth that the overwhelming majority will say they have had sex, i.e. they are not virgins. Bump it up from 25-40 and the number of vrigins will be extremely low. It is not 'normal' to be a virgin at 29 by the definition of the word normal itself. Secondly, there are dozens of dozens of peer-reviewed studies that have studied male/female peak sexuality trends. The internet is funny when someone can just say 'the sky is green' out of the blue and just act as though they are correct. Pull up a database and do some research before just throwing out fallacies for anyone out there to read. Lastly, I think semantics is keeping you from understanding what I meant. What I mean by 'normal' is merely that it is not typical of the majority. I think what you think I mean is that I am saying it's abnormal behavior... which I did NOT mean. It's her choice to be a virgin and her choice alone. But to claim it's representative of 'normal' is incorrect.

"Once they realize she's for real, they're out". It's a good thing those guys left her. They quickly reveal who they are. Not saying they are bad people or anything, but at the very least they can't respect her commitement towards purity. If they can't do that, then they don't deserve her. I really hope she finds that guy who also waited or that guy who may have not waited but for her he will. I too am holding out until marriage. Abstaining from sex isn't easy, especially for me (a guy).

Thank you for being the first person to give me an intelligent response. I feel that in this century, the only possible reason to wait until marriage is purely for your own personal pleasure. It is possible to have sex without getting pregnant or an STD as long as you take the right precautions and there are plenty of men who care more about who you are inside. I too have friends who waited for their husbands but sadly are divorced too. This has been happening for centuries. It's sad but true :(

dude, she's the product of her environment. she just doesn't want to have the life she had when she was a kid. Her mom apparently had a kid for every boyfriend she ever had and they were poor living in a church basement..or something like that. she's inexperienced with relationships because no guy is respecting her choice to remain a virgin until marriage. I'm still a virgin(and have dated) and I feel that I live. It is hard to find those kind of guys but they exist.
@RavenVonK3 жыл бұрын
True, since most men even if they're genuinely interested in you or are seeking long term relationship they get frustrated in the long run of that relationship. On top of that some men especially the rich and successful men who Lolo is surrounded with don't play games like that. If they're spending time, energy and resources and they are a full adult men they're going to want the puss sooner or later. On top of that, she has no sexual experience other than watching pornhub. Who knows if she ever had a long term relationship. I highly doubt it. Since most men won't stay that long with no sex. Why would he want to marry a 38 year old virgin, someone who probably will have troubles getting pregnant when he can go for a virgin who's under the age of 25?

I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand, I give her praise and honor for withholding herself from the temptation, but on the other hand I find her constant need to talk about sex a bit annoying, self-serving and pious. Look, at the end of the day no one cares if you're a virgin or not, that's between you and God, or if you don't believe in God, yourself. Sometimes I listen to this woman in interviews, and I can't help but think she is using her sexuality to sell herself and remain relevant. Again, who am I to judge?
@TheLady2luv7 жыл бұрын
Are you being serious? She needs to talk about it because she's a public figure who is blessed enough to have such an impact on society, young women and young girls. She taught me and others it's ok to be virgins in a society that says it is not. There's so much pressure to have sex because everyone in hollywood, in the media or in general is supposedly doing it so for her to be so brave about it is phenomenal. Even though people laugh and make jokes about her decision, she doesn't pay them any attention so it's not like she's boasting if it only brings her insults and humiliating jokes. Many teenagers are ashamed to be virgins let alone full grown adults. Lolo is a beautiful woman, has an amazing personality and career so her being very open I sincerely appreciate it because it goes against the stereotypes of virgins being ugly, unsuccessful, prudish religious fanatics.

@Stalicone12 жыл бұрын
While I can't speak for other men regarding the value of chastity, I view it (sex) as a biological function, so I value it as much as any other. We, as a society don't consider going to the bathroom a "gift" or tears, perspiring, or any other biological function. Why is sex so lofty? Perhaps, because I'm a trained scientist it's devalued in my eyes, but I see it as an issue of pragmatism. The more forbidden and mysterious the attributes we assign to sex - the more repressed we become.

Just because you lacked the moral fortitude to abstain until marriage doesn't mean that others lacked the will power to do what you couldn't. Instead of trying to bash her and her purity, you should admire and uphold her for doing something so challenging. Stop the hate.

Thanks for your respect, we don't get that alot on youtube. I sort of agree with your definitions. I disagree with chastity and repression being cause and effect to each other. There are many reasons to chaste, and many not to. Lolo finds it much more profitable to do it. There are cases where chastity leads to repression, but it's really about the individual's understanding and mental development. Repression can occur in many situations regarding no biological act. It's of psychological nature.
