Revirginization: Punk or Puritan? Punk: The Pros of Revirginization Rejuvenate Yourself! When you meet a boy you like, don't jump into bed. Instead, hold hands, hang out in your bedroom and listen to records, and make out a lot. You'll feel like a teenager again. Freedom to Flirt You can have quick crushes and get over guys with the greatest of ease, instead of thinking you're falling in love and waking to the rude realization that it's not the real thing. A Healthy Solution It's a proven fact that abstinence is the best prevention against STDs, as well as untimely and unwanted pregnancies. Plus, your head will be clear of the clutter of messy mind games. Resist the Temptation of "Danger" Boy Save yourself the frustration of chasing after the truly unattainable types who are not willing to commit. You should know by now that you will not convert them by sleeping with them. Puritan: The Cons of Revirginization Poor Pitiful Pearl Many of your friends will pity you for not getting any. You may need to enlighten them and offer assurance that you like it that way. Some friends will consider you conservative, while others will admire your willpower. Slow Ride Because you're not giving out free sex, it's possible that dating may slow down. Be careful not to fall into ruts of depression and low self-esteem as a result. Instead, use the down-time to work on projects you never had time for and find alternatives to build up your self-image. Deep Freeze After enough time passes, you may actually fear sex. This is probably an unhealthy attitude to have. When it comes time to give it up to the one you love, you will definitely have to talk honestly about your fears and it's possible you may need to seek counseling. The Human Touch My friend's therapist told him that people need to be touched 15 times a day. If you're not getting your recommended daily dosage of strokes, find alternatives: get a massage, get your hair cut a lot, get involved in some kind of contact sport, surround yourself with friends who like to hug and/or beat up each other.
