I've had intercourse with three guys, and I've been sexual (beyond making out, no intercourse) with a handful (ha!) of guys, and that's just super.

I'm not someone who was ever really proud to be a virgin any more than I'm proud to be brown haired or a female. That's how I was born. I'm not proud not to be a smoker - what have I done to be proud of in that instance? This isn't to say I was in a hurry to lose it, I had sex for the first time when I was nineteen, after reading dozens of books on sex ed, contraception, STDs, erotica, and technique. I'm kind of really interested in sexuality on a big scale. When I finally decide what it is I want to do with my life, I'll be genuinely surprised if it doesn't involve sex in some way. (Current ideas: freelance writer on various topics related to safer sex, sex-positivity, kink, etc; bigwig at a sex toy company *crosses fingers*; sex ed teacher; or something else entirely.)

Anyway, I just came off a three year relationship where he and I lived with our parents, so while we were both adults, we weren't in the most passion-friendly environment. We probably had sex twice a week. Since breaking up on January first, I've had two makeout sessions and nothing else.
