She reappeared on-screen after claiming to have waited for people to voice their opinions.
“The response is… well, there is no one answer for what losing your virginity is,” the doctor replied, before mentioning various types of s*xes.
“There is no single empirical concept of losing your virginity,” she concludes. That is precisely the point. No, your hymen is unimportant.”
“There’s no such thing as a ‘virginity test,’ either.”
The doctor expresses his hope that posting this video will assist teenagers who often inquire if they have misplaced theirs. The doctor wants them to avoid looking at virginity as a way to quantify their worth because society is fixated on how virginity equals purity. The key is to determine your own worth rather than allowing society to do so for you.
