Home › Forums › Sex & Relationships › Virgin and Non Virgin
Hello , I am male of 24 years. I have had sex with a non-virgin. I have no
experience of sex with a virgin. My question is, Is there any difference
between having sex with a virgin and non-virgin, especially in terms of physical
and psychological aspects for men.
Hi RMahato and welcome to PlaySafe! That’s a good great question – as far as I am aware there isn’t much difference however some may perceive extra societal pressure etc. @Nurse_Nettie will know best though!
Hi @RMahato, the truth is there isn’t any real physical difference between a woman who has had vaginal sex & a woman who hasn’t! Some people think you can tell by whether or not the hymen is intact, but the hymen often breaks down without any penetration at all! It’s a very delicate bit of tissue that commonly disappears without bleeding or pain.
The psychological experience for a man having sex with a virgin is about him rather than her. His values & culture & relationship all influence how he’ll think & feel about any sexual experience. There isn’t one way to feel about having sex with a virgin.
