“Boys are rarely told that their virginity is a gift, or indeed that their sexuality is about “giving” something to another person – lightly or not. Boys “get laid”, “get lucky”, “get some”. They “take a girl’s virginity”, “take advantage”; if they’re thoughtful, they “take their time”. Boys are not taught to think of themselves or their virginity as something to be offered up, unwrapped and enjoyed.” IfsThinkingGivingPersonsGirlBoysTaughtLuckyAdvantageSexualityEnjoyedThoughtfulVirginityGetting Laid Author:Emily Maguire
