Q: Have I Lost My Virginity?
asked by: notikka on September 23rd, 2005

Well, the first time I had real sex, my cherry never popped. When my cherry pops, does it make it official that I have lost my virginity to my partner? At most times, are all cherries suppose to pop when having there first time sex?

My ex-boyfriend, said he once put it in me, but I never felt anything, and also when he did try to go in, he only got the tip of his head. It never bled, and didnt even hurt.

Now, my boyfriend that I have now, has really went inside me and I really felt it. The thing is my vagina never bled, and my cherry never popped. Although, when we do have sex often, is penis always hits something [im assuming its my cherry], and im assuming it my cherry.

From friends, i've heard that a cherry can easily pop by even riding a bike. I'd really want my boyfriend that I have now and that i've had sex with to be my first, but im not sure whether he is, or my ex-boyfriend is. Please help me out with some information, and opinions, or answers. Thanks.

I Have Lost My Virginty
Hey when I first had sex my cherry did not break. I did not hurt nor bleed. I dont know why but when I had sex with my husband the first time it broke. And I felt every thing. I dont know why it dose not break every time you have sex the first time. I have never talked to anyone who had the same thing happen to them. Every one I know thinks I am crazy or lieing. I guess they was not large to break it. I dont know honey. But you are not alone.

If his penis was in your vagina, you are no longer a virgin.

Is it really important for you to be a virgin or not?

I don't think that you are still a virgin

For the love of god, all this obsession with the "cherry popping"! First off, "cherry" is a slang term for a woman's hymen. The hymen is a thin covering of skin over the entrance to a woman's vagina, ie it's on the outside of the body.

Hymens come in all kinds: sometimes the skin can almost completely cover the entrance, with only a few holes or slits for menstrual fluids to leak through. Other women have almost no hymen from birth. Personally, I have almost no hymen, and have been like that since birth.


You can find out what kind of hymen you have by holding a miror in front of yourself while lying in bed or on the bathroom floor; you can also tell by touch. I'd say that since none of your sexual encounters have been particularly painful, that you were born with a hymen that is very open, or even nonexistant. this is totally normal.

"popping the cherry" is a reference to when the man's penis rips (ow!) through the hymen in order to enter the vagina. You bleed because of this... That is if your hymen breaks. But as I said, if your hymen is open or basically unobstructive, then chances are he's not going to break it, and save you some pain!

When you felt your second boyfriend hit someting, if it was inside of you and it felt good, then he was either hittin your g-spot (which is an area of skin inside the vagina that is packed with extra touch-receptors) or you were simply feeling him hitting against the wall of your vagina.

On to virginity: because his penis was inside your vagina, you are no longer a virgin. It's that simple. Stop obsessing about the freakin "cherry popping". Many young women these days don't have hymens! We are evolving out of needing them, perhaps.

Do people who use the term "cherry popping" actually expect to hear a popping noise or something the first time they have sex?

Read This
The cherry refers to the hymen - a ring of tissue surrounding the vaginal opening, but not covering it completely. There is a common myth that a woman does not lose her hymen (cherry) until she has sex for the first time. So "pop the cherry" refers to the hymen breaking and the bleeding that may occur (but does not have to) after sexual intercourse. The hymen does not always get stretched or torn during the first experience of sexual penetration. Many females tear their hymen through tampon use or physical activity such as horse riding before their first sexual experience.

the Ex-boyfriend Is Your First
Once a man enters into the vagina than you have lost your virginity, end of story. My hymn broke long before I had sex. If you still don't know what a hymn is read above.

I know you want your current boyfriend to be the one but he is not. The moment you let your ex in is the moment you lost the chance to give your guy now the pleasure of being your first.

Be safe and use a condom regardless of if you think you are a virgin or not. Another good way to know if your a virgin or not is once he cums you have defiantly lost it. Enjoy the new truths to your life.

I kinda have the same problem. Me and my boyfriend have has sexual intercourse a few times. He says that I have not lost my virginity because he does nor go in hard everytime we have done it, does anyone know if what he is saying is true, i have never blead and it has never hurt, however when he first entered my virgina with his fngers i blead.
Is what he is saying true that I am still a virgin because he does not go in hard when he enters my virgina with his penis?

Confused
I've been having sex for four years, and a few days ago I heard a pop for the first time. There was no pain and no blood. Does that mean that was the first time my hymen broke? Can you have sex for years without tearing your hymen? If my hymen was torn the other day why was there no blood or pain?
