    So you're saying a person is a virgin...

    until they've had intercourse with a member of the opposite sex.

    Isn't that the standard definition?

    Again with your standards.

    I think virginity is lost when you make love for the first time.

    - With a member of the opposite sex. - Why? Why only?

    Because that's the standard. What do you want me to tell ya?

    So if a virgin is raped, then she's still a virgin?

    - No, of course not. - But rape is not the standard.

    So she's had sex, but not the standard idea of sex.

    Hence, according to your definition, she'd still be a virgin.

    - Okay, fine, I'll revise. - Uh-huh.
