Virginity:

• is sexist
• is heteronormative
• commodifies sex
• commodifies young cis-het white women
• contributes to rape culture
• contributes to slut-shaming
• erases queer folk
• erases transfolk
• frames a woman’s worth as inversely proportional to the number of dicks that have been inside her

and much, much more! 

fuck that noise.

Relevant.

Wait, I’m confused.  I thought virginity was just the state of not having had sex?

Virginity is a construct of “purity” and usually only applies to women and then only to PIV sex. Basically the whole purpose is to tell a woman her sexuality belongs to her husband, and she is “impure” if she doesn’t follow that particular rule.
