That is normal. I lost mines at 15 and never bled. It did hurt ALOT!

Sweetmaiden,

Have you had sexual intercourse...meaning your husband's penis has entered into your vagina?

Are you referring to "breaking your virginity" as breaking your hymen? (The skin that partially covers the vagina)?

sweetmaiden

yes....i have had sexual intecourse with my husband several times. In the beginning it used to hurt but now i enjoy it...i am surprised why i never fekt the breaking of the hymen. Is this possible?

I am wondering what your definition of "virgin" is?

In most cultures, a virgin is a description of a women who has not had sexual intercourse; penis-to-vagina specifically.

If you have had sexual intercourse with your husband, then you would not be considered a virgin.

Are you asking because you thought you have to experience pain in order not to be a virgin? Is this your culture's definition of "virgin" (a woman can have sex, but if she doesn't experience pain with intercourse...then she is still a virgin?).

Some women have hymens in-tact into their adulthood, other women have small hymens, no hymen or a hymen that was normally expanded through normal activity in their childhood (playing, exercising, etc). Some women experience pain with their hymen "breaking", and others do not...this is all normal!

thankyou so much for the answer..u have cleared my misconceptions.
