    I. What is Virginity ? Misconceptions (MCCT) and


    prejudices.
    A. Hymen (vaginal corona):
    . A membrane covering all of the vaginal opening in human
    females.
    Being "pierced or "broken" during a females first
    time having sexual intercourse (HSI).
    EX : The slang Popping the cherry

    B. Virgin (noun a person):


    Who has never had sex.
    Having intact hymen.
    Virgin, hymen and SI are three definition which
    inextricably link to each other and cant be
    separated. Not HSI Intact hymen Virgin.
    st
    (1
    misconception).
    C. Virginity
    (a concept):
    The state of being a virgin.
    Being the symbol of purity (2nd misconception).
    Typically imposed negatively on females (3rd
    misconception).
    Being called the most valuable property of a woman. (4th
    misconception). EX: Ci ngn vng.

    II. There is no medical or biological definition of


    virginity (dealing with the 1st MCCT).
    Hymen is NOT the demonstration of Virginity
    Clip
    The vaginal corona :
    Bleeding and pain during SI DONT
    prove whether a female is virgin or not.

    The are various types of


    hymen.

    III. The
    concept Virginity wrongfully considers sex
    Increase in the STDs, unwanted pregnancy and abortion.
    dirty and inappropriate, especially with females
    (caused by the 2nd MCCT).
    A. Virgins are considered pure.

    Sex and HSI will be considered dirty.


    B. Slut-shaming on those who have sexual
    intercourse.
    An immoral issue causing serious mental disorders.
    C. Sex becomes a sensitive and
    embarrassing issue :
    Sex education or discussion about
    sex are limited and discouraged.

    In Vietnam, about 70,000 abortion in adolescent age, unmarried


    youth every year. The Central Obstetrics Hospital every year about
    . 5,000 abortion (over 30% of pregnant women under 24 years old
    and even children are 15 years old which had 2 abortions).

    Lack of safe sex knowledge.

    IV. The concept virginity is sexist.


    A. It is an irrational double standard (caused by the 3rd MCCT).

    Only females have hymen Virginity is typically imposed


    negatively on them.

    IV. The concept virginity is sexist.


    A. It is an irrational double standard. (caused by the 3rd MCCT)

    Men are socially rewarded for


    having sex & women are socially
    punished.

    Men are applauded for their sexual


    experience.
    The shame in NOT having sex in male.
    Ben Moynihan, 18,
    stabbed 3 women
    aged 20, 45 & 67 in
    random attacks as
    they walked alone
    in the north area of
    Portsmouth,
    Hampshire, in June
    and July 2014.

    IV. The concept virginity is sexist.

    B. It considers women as (mens) products (caused by the 4th MCCT).


    Virginity is the most valuable
    property of a women.
    A woman losing her virginity
    before marriage is worthless/
    damaged/ not useful anymore.
    Her family/ husband no longer
    needs/ loves/ appreciates her.
    She deserves being abused by her
    family/ husband (honor crime).
    A female mustnt engage in
    premarital sex & would "give up" her
    virginity to her husband = purchasing
    a product.

    V. We should exclude virginity from our


    moral standards on sex and marriage
    A. A person should be valued by his/her personality,
    NOT by the state of virginity.
    Women totally have authority over their body.
    They have the freedom in their sexual activities.
    A persons worth must be evaluated basing on his/ her
    personalities and characteristics, NOT on his/her sex
    experience.

    B. 5 principles for sexual intercourse:

    The sexual intercourse


    is consensual.
    Its a legal process
    (no incest).
    It causes little or no pain
    (physical and mental).

    Protection is used during


    sex.
    Both partner love each other,
    and are in a normal
    relationship.

    Virginity is a unscientific and


    socially unequal concept.
    It is a social construction
    controlling females value and
    position.
    It should be removed from our
    moral standard on sex and
    marriage.

    We should get rid of the concept


    of virginity and stop using it
    as a tool for evaluating a
    persons worth.
