Guys losing their virginity

Ah, the first time—be it good, bad, or somewhere in between, there's only ever one. You probably know a lot of your besties' first time stories, but ever wonder how the other half fares? We asked guys to share their first-time experiences—and you might be surprised by a few of them. My roommate was out for a little while, so we took advantage of the open space.

In order to help debunk some of the harmful and confusing myths around the subject, we spoke to a variety of sex experts, psychologists and regular people about what losing your virginity means, and how to go about getting it done the right way. The concept of losing your virginity is not as simple as many people make it out to be. Traditionally, losing your virginity has meant engaging in penetrative sexual intercourse, whether penis-in-vagina or penis-in-anus. However, not everyone sees it as that. But there is great variation and it seems young folks are more open to seeing sex as an experience that can involve a range of acts — not simply a singular one.

But does that still hold true when you lose it at a shockingly young age? And how does doing so affect the rest of your life? We asked three men it happened to. We were in middle school, my girlfriend at the time and me.

Be that their most memorable experience, their favourite position, or their go-to sex toy. This article comes as the first of our new series, We Asked Guys. After months of dating, kissing and heavy petting we decided that the time was right. We decided to do it at my house as her mother was at home as she was a teacher and it was the summer holidays. Me and my girlfriend were upstairs in my room and the moment just felt right.
