While we've seen whole movie plots and characters developed around virginity — who's lost it, who hasn't, when you lost it, and how to lose it — there's a new pop culture trend on the sexy subject. Instead of the standard awkward teen boy virgin archetype (see Superbad, The Girl Next Door, Porky's, and countless others), TV shows are now featuring more and more 20-something female virgins. From Shoshanna on Girls to April on Grey's Anatomy, the silver screen is proving that not all girls are having sex in high school, and that's OK. Maybe it'll encourage a more accepting attitude toward female virgins, as opposed to the infamously "way harsh" jab from Clueless: "You're a virgin . . . who can't drive." Let's look back at how some of the most notable onscreen virgins in film and TV lost their v-cards!
