(18) Why do people make fun of me for being a virgin?

Don’t worry about it too much. Easier said than done, right? If you haven’t told them that you are a virgin just keep it for yourself, nobody has to know, that’s a private thing. If they ask, try saying something like - “maybe, maybe not” jokingly, be mysterious. And if they know you’re a virgin, who cares.

Don’t let anyone pressure you into having sex if you’re not ready. Wait for the right person, you don’t want to have sex with anyone just because your peers are doing it. Doesn’t mean it’s right thing to do.

Work on being comfortable in your skin, with who you are and what you want. I’ll give you an example- It’s much better attitude “yeah I’m a virgin and I want it that way, I’m waiting for the right person” than to be like “I’m a virgin but I hate it, feel ashamed of it”. It’s a normal thing at your age to be virgin and other girls might have the same thoughts as you do but they’re keeping quiet.
