What you are talking about is breaking your Hymen. Back long before the 1960's and the sexual revolution. It was accepted that a female was a virgin only if her Hymen was intact. In some cultures this is still true today, though not in most western cultures.
Today with all the activities a female can do that was either not allowed years ago, to things not even thought of in the way of activities they now can do. It is possible that a females Hymen can be dislodged without any penetration of her vagina. Even the use of a Tampon can rupture the Hymen without the women's knowledge she has done so.
Because of all this the acceptable definition today is for female virginity is: Vaginal intercourse with a penis. Once this has occurred she is no longer a virgin. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

Dragonflymagic answered Thursday November 14 2013, 11:50 pm: I am glad you asked. Your question shows you are really thinking things out. There is no easy yes or no because 'virginity is a social construction and very little of the word is based in reality. Read on and I will explain.
At what point does anyone lose virginity? Is it something being lost or is it sexual experience and expression being gained?
It is better to call puberty, and intercourse with a sexual partner and everything else in between: your Sexual Debut!!
It isn't a one time act like a show on stage only one night. Rather this evolves over time and contains many stages. Step one is being comfortable with yourself, getting to know what your own normal musky sexual smell is like, using a mirror, discovering what you look like, use your fingers to go exploring for more than inserting a tampon and of course, using a dildo and, discovering what the cervix feels like or your g-spot. Give yourself orgasms. Once you know what exactly works best for you, it will be easier to explain that to your partner when you have one later.
I have a couple of great short videos 3-4 mins. both by the same gal, Laci Green age 23 ish, Very funny and entertaining but you learn a lot and she had her facts down straight. She does the research. In fact Planned parenthood on the east coast has used her to create videos and work with them for a while.
She has many many informative videos on all subjects including gender types, proper hygiene, optional period products, birth control, dating and relationship related topics.... its a good place to start to self educate on the topic of sex and relationships.
