The 30-year-old virgins

It was once a badge of honor. But to the surprising number of adult women today who have not had sex, virginity is nothing but a curse.

    "late bloomer"

    Due to social anxiety, I never dated in either high school or college, though I did manage to lose my virginity at age 19 to an older (married) woman I'm sure my dad put up to deflowering me. I was 26 the next time I had sex, and it's still a rare event for me now in my 40s. Yep, I'm an introverted freak who couldn't get laid to save my life.
