I was chatting with a friend the other day about his new relationship. He was struggling to let go of her past sexual history. He knew that it was ridiculous to think that she hadn’t been with anyone in the decades before he met her — especially since he loved that she had a high sex drive. However, thinking about her with other men still bothered him, no matter how much he tried to talk himself out of it.

This got me wondering about society’s obsession with women being virgins. Where did this really come from? Why is it only about the women being inexperienced and not the men? Is it just male insecurity? Is it a power play? Is there something spiritually interesting about being a virgin?

This has actually been a fascination for me for a long time. There are many lines of research we can go into about the history of virginity, the idea that a virgin was originally someone who is not betrothed, and therefore is whole and free, why they only sacrificed virgins, etc.

But today, as we explore the true nature of the masculine and feminine with the goal of total merging and union, this is a critical discussion if we are ever to truly understand just how rich, powerful, and interesting the divine feminine is…
