GiddyGeezer answered Saturday June 28 2014, 8:17 pm: I believe the question you are asking is if you have anal sex and your partner does not enter your vagina with his penis are you still a virgin? The answer is yes. Your hymen would still be intact and you are still considered a virgin. [ GiddyGeezer's advice column | Ask GiddyGeezer A Question ]
talldivaofbeverlyhillz answered Saturday June 28 2014, 5:22 pm: Scientifically speaking, if your hymen has not been purposely broken, you are a virgin. But what does a "virgin" really mean? It's not about if it slipped into your vagina. In my opinion, anal sex or oral sex, mentally and spiritually, makes you not a virgin anymore. Do not be stressed. If you regret and have doubts about something now, learn a lesson from it and remember to not do it again unless you're sure about it and sure about yourself. ^-^ Good luck and do not stress and panic! Virginity is as serious as you decide to make it. It is up to you whether you are a "virgin" anymore and remember that what happened is in the past. :)
Good luck!!!!-talldivaofbeverlyhillz [ talldivaofbeverlyhillz's advice column | Ask talldivaofbeverlyhillz A Question ]

juliet132132 answered Wednesday June 25 2014, 9:10 pm: If i understand you correctly, you had sex, anlly, and it did NOT slip into your vagina. You are a virgin vaginally. You are not a backdoor virgin however. [ juliet132132's advice column | Ask juliet132132 A Question ]
MrAkshay answered Tuesday June 24 2014, 10:24 pm: Firstly, use a medical device to find our whether you are pregnant or not ?
Secondly, a virgin is a person who never had sex. You had anal sex. Unfortunately, you are no more a virgin.
But that shouldn't call for any harassment until and unless you get pregnant.
Take needed measures. You won't get pregnant, if you do so. [ MrAkshay's advice column | Ask MrAkshay A Question ]
ron777 answered Tuesday June 24 2014, 4:07 pm: I guess that you could tell people that you still are if it's important to you, because it would appear that you still are if they didn't have knowledge of said anal sex. [ ron777's advice column | Ask ron777 A Question ]
Jheel answered Tuesday June 24 2014, 4:00 am: Depends on how you look at it.. if according to you..its having sex..then yes..you are no more a virgin and if you look at the conventional way people think that breakage of hymen is loss of virginity..then you are still a virgin but mind it...physical excercise and cycling can also lead to its breakage.. So its not a valid way to look at virginity.. So Actually its better you forget about and stop thinking about it.. There's no way anyone can understand whether you had anal or not.. And there are no chances of being pregnant. So chill [ Jheel's advice column | Ask Jheel A Question ]
misspiggy answered Monday June 23 2014, 9:03 pm: This is called being a "technical virgin". Although you have not technically had intercourse, you did do something intimate.
NinjaNeer answered Monday June 23 2014, 5:15 pm: It all depends on your personal definition of virginity. To some, virginity is lost when the then is broken; however, this can happen without any sexual contact at all. Many define it as not having had penetrative sex.
nikz answered Monday June 23 2014, 12:37 pm: Yes you are. You're only a virgin until your hymen is broken which is located in the vagina [ nikz's advice column | Ask nikz A Question ]
June answered Monday June 23 2014, 7:36 am: Yes and No. In some people's eyes when you have any type of sex you are no longer a virgin. In medical terms yes you are still a virgin. [ June's advice column | Ask June A Question ]
ciao77 answered Monday June 23 2014, 6:51 am: Regardless of whether you had sex vaginally or not, you are not a virgin. You still had sex--anal sex is still sex. So even if your hymen is still in tact, you aren't a virgin. I don't know what your personal viewpoints or values are, and I'm sorry if this changes things for you. The most important thing is to only have sex when you feel it is right and you are comfortable (you sound young, so please hold off until you are older).. If you do go ahead with things, make sure to use a condom EVERY TIME. You can still contract STD's through anal or oral sex, not just vaginal. [ ciao77's advice column | Ask ciao77 A Question ]
adviceman49 answered Monday June 23 2014, 5:06 am: By today's definition of "Virgin" you are still a virgin. Today's definition of "Virgin" for a female is that there has been no penetration of her vagina by a penis.
By this definition you are still a virgin. In the biblical sense you may not be for even though you only had anal sex, you have had copulated with him. In a manner of speaking you have had carnal knowledge of one another since anal sex is now considered a sex act.
Copulation; the act of a man having penetrative sexual relations with a woman.
SilentOne answered Monday June 23 2014, 4:55 am: An anal virgin, no. Vaginal virgin, yes. Overall, it's up to you, or anyone who you discuss it together with to decide.
There are a lot of different interpretations of the word Virgin.
1 Religious
2 Psychologically
3 Hymen not broken
4 Never had any kind of sexual contact [ SilentOne's advice column | Ask SilentOne A Question ]
mrsh answered Sunday June 22 2014, 11:44 pm: From a technical point of view even anal penetration is losing your virginity however I'm inclined to feel personally that virginity is largely up to the individual to define
The question I think you should be asking is
Do you still view yourself as a virgin or not
Really hope this helps you feel less confused and conflicted [ mrsh's advice column | Ask mrsh A Question ]
masterclinic answered Sunday June 22 2014, 8:56 pm: Depends on what you think being a virgin is. Some girls think oral and anal don't count, which I think is pretty stupid because it's called oral "sex" and anal "sex", once you've had sex your not longer a virgin right? Well like a said it depends on the person. If you belong to a religion chances are your no longer considered a virgin either. You shouldn't be stressed because it doesn't really matter, nobody cares if you've had any kind of sex before, at least anyone that's mature [ masterclinic's advice column | Ask masterclinic A Question ]
DDiazella3 answered Sunday June 22 2014, 6:54 pm: It depends what your definition of a virgin is. If you believe that being a virgin means you have never had sex, then no you are not a virgin because you have had anal sex. If you believe that being a virgin means that your hymen is still in tact, then yes you are a virgin. Because, the only way a hymen can be broke is from vaginal penetration.
Either way you should NOT feel stressed about it. Loosing your virginity is a natural and normal part of life. It's part of your experience and you should accept and embrace that. The most important thing to consider when your having sex is that your doing it because you want to. No one should force you. Sex should be happening between willing adults. Secondly, you should make sure that you trust the people you have sex with. You should be able to speak to them about your feelings and they should respond in a kind and compassionate manner. Thirdly, you should practice safe sex or sex with a condom. A condom is the most effective way to protect yourself from an unplanned pregnancy or an STI.
Dragonflymagic answered Sunday June 22 2014, 5:47 pm: It all depends on what you consider virginity to be. Penis in vagina is generally what people consider means you're no longer a virgin. If so, then at what point do two same sex male lovers or two same sex females lose their virginity if they never do anything with a person of the opposite sex. They either have two vagina's or two penis's and there's no way to have 'penis in vagina' sex. Does it mean they remain virgin's eternally?
Well, I suppose one girl could use a strap on, or one of the guys could do anal on the other. Are you getting the picture? At what point does a person then become no longer a virgin? Its an outdated, useless word. Our sexual experience from puberty til we die, is a unfolding of experiences, one by one. You have just experienced one of them.

Sensaura answered Sunday June 22 2014, 4:21 pm: I cannot imagine having had anal sex and still considering yourself a virgin -
Using the technical definition - if your hymen is still whole, you are a virgin. So if you have never been vaginally penetrated, then yes, you are a virgin, technically.
Why is staying a virgin important to you? I am trying to imagine a reason where participating in anal sex would not mean basically the same thing as virginal, and I just cannot.
You can still be infected with diseased anally. You are still sharing the most intimate activities with someone when you have sex anally. You are still risking pregnancy - although it is much less likely - when you have sex anally - (because when he ejaculates, the liquid will drip into the vaginal area and could possibly still enter the uterus - very, very unlikely, but a risk) -
Sharing the intimacy of any kind of sex is something that can only be truly appreciated when it is done with someone who you so close to, that when you are with that person, you are as comfortable as you are when you are by yourself.
Sex, in any form - vaginal, oral, or anal - is never as meaningful or as wonderfully magically and intimately transforming - as it is when you experience it with the one person on the planet who you know so well and so deeply, that you only feel truly at home when you are with them. When you can know someone in such a way that no matter how they change - you love them for their soul - you love not who they might be at this certain time and place, but you love the person they were on the day the born - who is the same as the person they will be on the day they day, and the person they stay every day of their life - that deep and intimate part of person that never changes, even while they learn and grown and their looks and opinions and habits and likes and dislikes change -
And even then - sex in any form cannot be truly enjoyed and understood in a meaningful way, until the person you are with, loves you in that same way.
When you just know - without doubt - that they are there for you and simply always will be, and that you have found your other half, and thinking that there might be someone else out there for you is just - not possible.
Don't settle. Wait for it; it's worth the wait. And whether they penetrate your vagina or not - that's a detail that loses all meaning when you start to really understand what sex is really all about.
So my answer, if you have had anal sex with someone, but have never been penetrated vaginally?
Technically your still a *vaginal* virgin.
Morally? Mentally? Psychologically and Emotionally? No - I'm sorry, but you are most certainly *not* a virgin.
Good luck to you, and when you do find that person I describe - it will be like you have never had sex before; you will wonder what it was you were doing all those other times when you *thought* it was sex... [ Sensaura's advice column | Ask Sensaura A Question ]
ellekaay answered Sunday June 22 2014, 3:45 pm: To lose your virginity, you need to follow to rules. Normal sex usually involves the penis and the vagina. Not anal. I believe that you are still a virgin. [ ellekaay's advice column | Ask ellekaay A Question ]
Cardigan answered Sunday June 22 2014, 3:26 pm: If the anal sex was consentual, then you are not a virgin, so far as virginity matters or means anything. An untouched vagina is not a prize that you need to save for last. Having anal sex is as intimate as vaginal sex, in some ways more so. What you've done with the partner is really your first time, so long as it was consentual. That being said, your lack of experience and understanding makes me concerned that you are under 18 and/or your partner coerced you or misled you. If that's the case, and you didn't consent or are legally unable to consent, you didn't lose your virginity; it's possible that you were raped instead. Virginity is not something someone else can take from you without your permission.
You really need to examine what virginity means to you and why you find that status so valuable, more valuable than saving anal sex. Vaginal sex is for most women more pleasurable and more comfortable than anal sex, so you're not doing yourself a favor by making your backdoor the first choice (except in protecting yourself from pregnancy).
I'm sorry you feel stressed. In my opinion, the only value of virginity is taking pressure-free time to allow yourself to figure out what you want, what pleases you, and how to protect yourself now and for the future... and learning to assert yourself before bringing another party--someone you can trust to respect your body and your wishes--into the mix. The good news is, you can take that time for yourself even if you're not a "real virgin." There's nothing a virgin can do that any other woman can't. Don't do anything that you are not enthusiastic about, or anything without protection (guarding emotions and preventing pregnancy & STDs) from this point on, no matter how much your partner wants it. That's the only thing that matters. [ Cardigan's advice column | Ask Cardigan A Question ]
RoxyK96 answered Sunday June 22 2014, 3:04 pm: It all depends. Everyone has their own idea of what virginity is, some say yes you are a virgin still because he never penetrated your vagina where as others say that you are no longer a virgin once you have any form of sex (oral, vaginal, anal). So it's up to you how you define virginity. In my opinion though, I believe anal or vaginal sex is losing your virginity. But like I said it's how you see it that matters.
