Discussion on the concept of virginity

Misconceptions about the hymen
1. There are still wrong notions about hymen in our society. Hymen is a thin membrane. It is often said that if a girl has physical relations with someone, it breaks. And this is how we know whether the girl is a virgin or not. It is also said that bleeding occurs after the hymen breaks. There are such myths about hymen.
Facts: For your information, let us tell you that this thing about the hymen is completely false. Because the hymen does not cover. It is a membrane. It is completely inside. The hymen can also break due to exercise and playing. The hymen does not break just by having sex. The hymen is not a sign of your virginity. It is quite flexible and can be penetrated without breaking. But it is so delicate that it can be affected even by intense physical activity.
2. Virginity Test
Facts: Hymen test cannot be a test of your virginity. It can never disappear forever. It always remains in the body.
