I'm not a virgin. Are you?

Raised eyebrows, protruding eyes, firmer grip of your device - some of the anticipated reactions after reading such a title. Virginity, as we know it, is the state of not having indulged in sexual intercourse. But, a deeper approach would relate this term to a woman's purity, her sanctity. Considering the second definition, most of us (girls) lose our virginity at a really tender age. Stunned? Read on.

At the age of five, when the shorts that provided me comfort, the small pretty frocks that gave me the look of a fairy, the same dresses offered beautiful,naked legs to "educated adults" for staring. It is then that I felt impure for the first time, the first time I lost my sanctity, my virginity.
With age increased the length of the dresses I wore. But, my purity was still adulterated each time I was catcalled. In a bus, a train or even a temple, they took advantage of the crowd to touch my breasts, squeeze my butts. The hormonal changes are supposed to be a natural thing, aren't they? Then, why did they offer me something which led to unnatural happenings?!

As I trod down the roads, I feel like I am on a constant watch. Every time you guys talk to me while staring at my breasts, I feel I am not pure. Your eyes follow my butt till I go out of your sight, after which your imagination plays a major role.Your staring eyes penetrate deep into me and snatch away my sanctity, my virginity. The time you took my NO for a YES, my "resistance" for "wanting it" , I escaped somehow. But, I couldn't escape from the contamination you left me in.

Your staring, your "caring", your stalking, your cocking, your watching, your touching - that's how I became impure, that's how I lost my virginity. It would have been so much better if we would have been asked for permission to lose our virginity. But, unfortunately, the eyes won't stop, the hands won't resist and the mouths, they will continue to bark - bark about fighting for women, to protect them etc etc. This has been going for ages and will continue for many more. And for the girls, we are sorry for having lost our virginity so early, and most of all we are sorry that we had to lose it even though we didn't want to lose it. With all these blames and "harsh words" , I guess I justify myself enough when I end up saying that I am not a virgin.. Are you?
