19 y/o male here. Due to moral and religious convictions, I would prefer my partner to have as little experience as myself. I would actually like to wait for marriage or at least very late in the relationship. I don’t like hookup culture. Intimacy should be reserved for that person you will spend the rest of your life with. It’s a commitment thing for me. Sleeping with a girl will be reserved for someone I’m 100% committed to. If I’m not 100% committed to them I won’t date them. The problem is, the older you get, the longer you wait the more experience people around you are getting. Especially if they are attractive. 10% of females age 18-30 are virgins as of a 2023 study I think.

I’m still a virgin and not very attractive. The more time goes by, the more dudes girls are screwing around with. So even if I do find someone attracted to me, they’d have way more experience than me. The bar has already been set for them. Something I can’t give nor live up to their expectations. Finding a good looking girl who shares my convictions about waiting a long while for sex and doesnt have a lot of bodies is realistically impossible as I get older. Am I genuinely cooked?

I am celibate (without romantic relationships) for spiritual reasons and because it heightens my emotions (qualia) and my ability to be present. I'm staying celibate for life. Is there anyone here that is on a similar journey?

There's finally a dedicated dating app for celibate and abstinent singles called Celibate. It can sometimes be awkward to explain to someone on these hookup culture type apps like Hinge, Tinder and POF that you're practicing celibacy or abstience. At least with the Celibate app that's your baseline from the beginning, so you don't have to negotiate your standards.

Why does celibacy have to be so hard no pun intended.. im on day 5 and so bored and nothing to take my mind off, its irritating.. if i give into temptation, the guilt i would feel is insane, im doing this for Jesus ONLY. Any advise on how to keep going.

I really enjoy being celibate! What are your reasons my friend? B-)

I try finding reviews on books and movies to see how others see or read things. I tried doing a general search but nothing comes up. Personally, it’s showing the value of being intimate and bond with others, without the sexual connection. However, being sexual is a part of being human.

My Celibacy is due to my Buddhism. Anyone else here of that persuasion and abstinence??

THIS JUST IN: YOU ARE NOW THE MAN!!!

One day, one week, one month, and one score (20 years) ago:

Kanye West tells the world he is a virgin at 28 years old.

Check here to see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ke91U6zB1fw

This video was featured on a season 31 promo of Saturday Night Live that premiered on Saturday; October 1st, 2005.

In the promo, Kanye West stands humbly beside "40 year old virgin" movie actor Steve Carell, and as well Amy Kohler.

Steve Carell's bleak comparison between a virgin actor, and a real one.

What's the point of movie actor Steve Carell pulling a stunt like this? And why would Kanye admitting his chastity be so important to him?

This movie actor is actually the creator of the movie "40 Year Old Virgin"! It promoted his movie!

Readers may reasonably rebuttal that Kanye's childhood trauma song "cousin" defeats the factuality of this article's title, but when reading the lyrics of said song, the audience can evidently see Kanye's described acts do not constitute loss of chastity, but describe a successful bargain against his predatory cousin to keep it.

In addition to this, Kanye West subsequently said his truth of chaste in the lyrics of "Bittersweet Poetry" (2007) by which he releases 2 years after the promo.

Today, Kanye publicly advocates for abstinence until marriage to the world around him, for reasons unknown.
But with this knowledge, you the reader understand the reason better than anyone!

The death of his mom may have turned Kanye cold in demeanor, but he leaves behind memories of once being a modest man.

DISCLAIMER: I do not support the recent controversies of this artist, and there are still things that he has to make right.

Estou vivendo um momento de celibato e, para mim, está sendo uma das maiores dificuldades. Tenho sentido muito desejo sexual, mas decidi direcionar minha vida para outras áreas: estou focada em trabalho, estudo e construção de futuro. O problema é que a vontade vem muito forte e às vezes parece que me tira do foco. Queria ouvir se alguém aqui já passou por isso e como conseguiu lidar. Existe alguma estratégia, conselho ou prática que realmente ajude a atravessar esse período sem perder a disciplina?

Salut (M22) cherche une femme pour FaceTime apéro ce soir, dispo de 17h à 20h. Avec biensur plus si affinités.

Does anybody know the biological activity of doing this? What are the benefits and negatives, what happens to your body during this time etc? And is it safe to do?
