Answer 1

Virginity has been in simple reffered to not having an intercourse in any form(vaginal, oral or sexual) An act of doing any one or more among this is considered to be loss of virginity of an individual. It is easily acceptable and identifiable in heterosexual but not in homosexuals like LGBT community. Hence a same sex couple loses their virginity by having any form of sexual act with sound mind.

In women the hymen plays a key role to decide on virginity and still followed and practiced in many part of the world when it comes to marriage but in men it is non judgmental because of absence of this part.So virginity always depends on the thought and act of an individual rather than being physical

The women are open to this talk especially to their best friends and healthcare professionals in order to make a better family without frustration and trying to satisfy their male partners.They always think the physiological act is due to the trigger of psychological wish .Similarly they can come out with problems associated with it and get help.In order to change this perception education and awareness can be done among men.
