Chief seems to support this barbarian position by saying a girl isn't even worth his time if she's a virgin. Bluntly, as a PUA I enjoy the intimacy of sex. When you say that virgins deserve special SPAM, when you elevate them above "regular" women, you are sending a message that women should not be having sex.
Really?
This is what you got out of it? ...

I'm hoping most of the guys here don't think like you, but I'm not that optimistic.
I on the other hand am hoping most of the guys here (i) actually UNDERSTAND what is being said, and (ii) take it into careful consideration.
I was with my boyfriend for a little less than a year when I lost my virginity to him. Despite the comfort I felt with him, despite how much I knew he cared for me, despite the fact that we'd done a great deal of other things that made sex not such a big step, -despite this and a lot more- losing my virginity to him still affected me a great deal, both in the moment it happen, and for a long time afterward.
Girls speak of the disappointment they feel- how sex for the first time isn't at all what they expected... it's short, it hurts, it's awkward, it's anything but romantic, etc. But there's another strand of disappointment there that is rarely mentioned... I saw losing my virginity as some sort of threshold to womanhood. I expected to feel like a "woman" and instead I came out feeling like a little girl- more scared, more vulnerable, and more insecure than I had ever been in my whole life.
How do I explain to you that feeling of loss? I felt as if I was losing myself. And the vulnerability! I think back now at how my boyfriend held me when it was all over- what would have become of me if he had just got up and left? I could take a guy leaving now... but then? Then, in that moment, I would have been ruined.
How do I explain to you the feeling of abandonment? I felt
abandoned by my boyfriend when he had to leave to go home that night. Imagine that! I remember I was sensitive to the little things for so long- him not calling me when he said he would, him postponing our plans, him not answering my messages ASAP, him talking to other girls... I overlooked this in the past, but all of a sudden these things seemed to be screaming signs of abandonment.
And how do I explain to you the feeling of
attachment? That boy was witness to a very unique moment in my life; it's something I'll never share with anyone again. Sure, I loved him before he took my virginity, but what I felt for him thereafter could almost be classified as obsessive to a certain extent. I depended on him a lot, and for a long time I felt like he held a part of me.
Anyway, I consider myself lucky to have lost "it" with this particular guy. He was patient and reassuring, but more importantly,
he stayed with me. I really needed him to stay.
You're a PUA. You enjoy seducing women. You love them, and you appreciate them- there are so many women out there you want, and want to get to know, and you now have some knowledge on how to go about getting them.
You're a PUA. Natrually, you move on... most virgins will need you to stay. Do you see the conflict here? It's not about you not being worthy or less qualified... it's about you wanting to enjoy and experience women, and it's about her needing you to remain dependable and present.
