That's true.
I do know that, but so what? The collective mentality took a while to change (it's still in the process, sexism is far from extinguished).How could you not know that sexual mores eased after the sexual revolution in the late 60's. It amazes me how ignorant young people are.
And I agree... If you're inexperienced, you want someone with experience.
It has nothing to do with her virginity. It's the fact that this poor son of a bitch has had blue balls for a year and you're suggesting that, what, she break up with him and find herself a virgin boy for the "experiencing it together" bit? Christ. Who cares?
On another note, I'd like to give the 2014 Most Relaxing Poster Award to dem862. He's now officially my favorite.
Searock, she has been with him for a year. She loves him enough to want him to be her first. What is she supposed to do? Break up with him to find a virgin? No.
OP, what you need to do is be honest with him. If he is as experienced as you claim he is, he will know that you're a virgin when you start to have sex. Unless his dick is the size of a peanut then you're probably going to feel some discomfort. I'm not a virgin and depending on how well endowed a guy is and the position, then well I may still feel some discomfort. Mainly from the back, I'll probably be running as oppose to throwing it back as usual. Anyway, I think its real lame that you haven't told him that. This could be real special for the both of you and you're ruining it by being fake.
Well, you were saying that virginity was only honored and respected prior to the use of condoms and birth control, which have been around for thousands of years, and from a time when men owned their women as property, which is well before my memory. My point is that virginity was still honored and respected well into the 20th century, and still is in some places. That doesn't make it wrong or anachronistic. Just because something was socially accepted prior to your birth does not necessarily make it sexist.
