The hymen is a natural virginity test. FALSE.

As the following video explains, “Physically speaking, virginity doesn’t exist.” While some countries can legally force a woman to reveal her privates to law enforcement in order to perform crude “virginity tests,” the entire stunt has no basis in science.

A 2004 study published by the Archives of Adolescent and Pediatric Medicine found that 52% of sexually active teenagers still had intact hymens. Why didn’t anyone teach us this stuff?
