In the dating world of today all you have is snap judgements.
I could say there is a direct link between girls of quality and girls with tattoo's. I find that majority of girls I meet at bars with tattoo's tend to be of a lesser quality than the more clean, all natural girls I tend to meet.
Mind you the all natural girls are usually few and far between, I've never actually liked a girl with tattoo's past the initial beginning stages of a relationship. They tend to be too flaky and wishy washy, and more hedonistic. Which is probably why they got the sex tattoo's on the lower back in the first place. So, I think given that a lot of American life especially is based on snap judgements and very little information it's safe to assume that a girl with a tattoo on her lower back is not a virgin. Then you can go further and say that most likely, if she has further tattoo's in various unappropriate area's it is safe to say that she is probably not still with the first guy she dated. It's safe, but does not mean 100% of the time this is true.
You have to be judgemental in the dating world. Your life depends on it. If one person sleeps with another person, and that person sleeps with another person... and lets just say she's only slept with four people... the chains of sex that he-did she-did accumulate up to 100's of people you may be sleeping with in just one sitting. Then you have to factor in that no one's going to be honest if they have an STD. They're also not going to be honest about how many people they've slept with. A friend of mine who sleeps around a lot just got an STD. His dating life is pretty much ruined... unless he decides to create a site www.datingforpeoplewithherpes.com

Dead reckoning, it's extremely rare in a Western society to find a girl over age 25 who is a virgin; as in, less than one in every ten thousand or even worse. The same is true for males at around age 30. (The reason I call males higher than females is because females get approached for romantic relationships considerably more than in the other direction, so those males who have anxiety problems when approaching women will probably remain virgins for some time longer until natural urges force them to overcome it.) | |

First off, I apologize for contributing to this horrible undying thread. I mean good gads, it's over two weeks old. I'm calling bull on the 1-in-10,000, unless you're referring to all of Western society; even then I'd peg it closer to 1 in 100 at least. In the US I think that'll be higher. Thing is, in spite of rapid secularization, the US still has a profound religious influence and in spite of sex going mainstream, there are still major segments of the population holding to taboos on sexual encounters outside of marriage. Not to mention some people in high-pressure grad student programs might deliberately put off any kind of relationship or the sorts of opportunities for one-night-stands, with the goal in mind of focusing squarely on achieving their degree. So in the Western world in general, 1 in 80 is my bet, owing to (much) more relaxed attitudes toward sex in Europe and South America. In the US it's probably more like 1 in 20 or more. Lummox JR | |

Despite sex being the focal point of the media, and the majority viewpoint seeing it as acceptable, there are still A LOT of people that are virgin. Some just because they can't find someone, others just because they choose to be so. And you can't use tattoos/piercings to determine such, at least not all the time. In my (for lack of a better word) "clique," almost every one is pierced/tatted. I won't go as far as to say that everyone is a virgin, but most are, and proudly so. And I'm the only religious one among us. There isn't any particular reason why, but it's just seen as mildly disgusting the promiscuity of the mainstream world. But it seems we digress from the point of the topic. | |
I never said it was a requirement. I was saying, in the dating world... where all you have is snap judgements of someone and brief moments of rather absurd conversations you tend to make assumptions to perhaps protect yourself, and also to determine if someone is worth going for. I've dated quite a few people though, and typically meet a lot of people at bars. Once you get older, it's a little harder to find people outside of em! At least, when you get off at midnight it is.
I was mostly exaggerating the statement. I meant most likely if they have a tattoo on their back, from my experience, it means they've probably done a lot more than they're going to tell you... make sure to use protection, as you should anyway. That is of course if you go that far... who knows if you're drunk enough, which once again points towards the "snap judgements" that are almost a necessity during those times. | |
“It is extremely important to hire a trained medical person to conduct this piercing, which is essentially a surgical procedure. Jamming a rod through one’s own testicles is one thing, but piercing your own brain? That just isn’t safe.”
