Adult Virgins
We live in a sex obsessed world, where hook-up culture is king and getting laid out like a spatchcocked chicken is a status symbol.
But what if you’re a fully-fledged adult, paying your own bills and you’re still a “virgin”?
Some women might hold off having sex for the first time because they want to meet the “right” person, others because they haven’t had the opportunity or are waiting until marriage. Whatever the reason, it can feel lonely and isolating when there so much noise around sex.
Yumi Stynes talks to women who haven’t yet had sex, either by choice or circumstance and to another who waited to have sex for over 40 years, until she met her perfect person.
We love hearing from you! Send us an email or a voice note to ladies@abc.net.au
