HoneyCalling All Bloggers! Let’s Talk Virgins!
By Lance on Sep 25, 2008 in Featured, Relationships, Sex
Similar to what we did last March on the subject of attraction (see here and here), we’re putting a call out for a bunch of cool bloggers to do another roundtable. The subject this time around is virginity. Sweet! I love virgins! Oh wait…actually I don’t, but you’ll have to wait until my post to read why.
Any blogger can feel free to join in on this. We’re asking you to post on the topic on YOUR blog and then link to the other posts when the roundtable is over. This isn’t a contest, there are no prizes, and we’re simply looking for your interesting perspectives. We’re looking for posts to be published by next Wednesday, October 1. If you do participate, please drop the link to your post in our comments section.
There are several great benefits:
1. Test out your writing chops.
2. By interlinking the posts everyone will pump up their pageranking and take advantage of search engine traffic. Having a keyword like “virgin” or “virginity” could be a bonanzo, too, and give your post a majorly long tail.
3. Drive our individual audiences to other blogs.
4. Read interesting and diverse perspectives.
When the roundtable is over, we’ll summarize and link all of the participants in The Weekly and spread the link love. We’re also asking everyone to link to the other posts in your entry, like this:
To Get Your Wheels Turning
With Natalie Dylan and Raffealla Fico auctioning off their v-cards and The Virgin finally getting laid (hoorah!), what kind of value does virginity have in our society, anyway?
Feel free to approach the topic any way you’d like. For example, what should we be encouraging as a society as far as how long to keep ”it” and who to give it up to? What’s the most important thing that could be learned the first time, and did you learn it your first time? What advice would you give to a younger person (say, a child, for those of you who are parents)? Is virginity even a big deal? How did losing your virginity in the way that you did impact your future relationships? How much is virginity worth, anyway?
Also, feel free to tell your own virginity story.
Here are some links to get your wheels turning:
- Virginity, going once, twice, sold…
- Raffaella Fico: Yay! More Absurdly Expensive Virgins!
- Fuck You: The Virgin, Part II
We look forward to reading what everyone has to say.

Very, very tempted to enter. But too many ex-virgin lovers read my blog!
Ha.
I’m in. And as a dad, I have living proof that I’m not a virgin.
Funny how my kids don’t even look like me… but, whatever.

Technically you could be a dad and still be a virgin though it’s probably rather unlikely unless you really needed money in college.

Ha, what a coincidence, I was just in the middle of writing a post about virgins. I suppose we are all on the same track of thinking with all this news about virgins lately. I’ll have my post up in a few days.
Matt Savage’s last blog post…The Homeless Pickup Artist
Natalie Dylan and Raffaela have had my gears turning about this whole virgin freelance market that has been created. I’ll see if I can come up with a good post this weekend about it.
Would love to be a part of the roundtable!
@Matt & Infinity: Awesome, we’d love to see your perspectives!

Now I’m going to have to hunt down the girl who took my virginity and have a nice little rendezvous… although i’m sure 13 years later, she’s fat and crazy. But i’ll still hit it
by the way, if i’m missing anyone in my roundup at the end just send me an email or leave a comment and i’ll add you
I’ll be posting “Why I’m a virgin again” tomorrow.
And for sure, I’ll be sharing the link love!

Ok, it took me all night but this is a pretty solid post and one of my finest if I do say so myself. See below. Also, I’ll likely do post sharing the love on Thursday, so look out for that.

Wow – I do a whole blog JUST ABOUT virginity (and female sexuality)! This is a bonanza of cool stuff to link to. Let me get cracking on a post, but in the meantime feel free to check out ‘The American Virgin’ for yourself.
Trixie´s last blog post…Diablo Cody Hearts Judy Blume. Don’t We All!
We have a whole blog about virginity (and female sexuality) which is linked to a doc-in-progress by the same name: The American Virgin.
Love meeting others fascinated with this topic! Feel free to sample or contribute!

Course not, blog away. I’m writing my post on Friday.
p.s. Why do I feel like this is some elaborate ploy to get the Virgin *The Stud* out of the non blogging hole he’s been in lately?

Because it would work and H / L has poor timing, NWY
