The 40 Year Old Virgin,embarrassment and awkwardness.



In the 2005 romantic comedy, "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," Steve
Carell plays Andy, a nerdy retail salesman into his fourth decade
who has never done the deed. He inadvertently lets his virginity slip to his friends, who decide to help him gain sexual experience, but
their advice is screw ball and their help is, at best, dubious.
Of course, as the plot unfolds, on his own, Andy meets Trish
(Catherine Keener), and eventually, well, it's Hollywood, so you can
guess....

"The 40-Year-Old Virgin" is played for laughs, but for real older
virgins, generally defined as people who have not had intercourse
by age 25, it elicits tears and misery. The real world of older virgins is
much different from the one depicted in the film. It's a world of
shame and low self esteem.

Forty years ago, older virgins were considered curiosities, but by
the mid-1980s, sex therapists began reporting a steady trickle of
clients over age 25, about three-quarters of them men, who had never had sex with anyone other than themselves. By the 1990s, it was clear that a surprisingly large number of people were still involuntarily virgins at age 25, but the true prevalence of older virginity remained a mystery.
Accidental virgins tend to morph into terrified virgins.
Terrified he’ll embarrass himself, or being made fun of because he does not live up to the standards or sexual stamina a experienced normal male should be able to display he avoids making any sexual advances at all.
Girls aren’t used to men not wanting to sleep with them so he quickly gets a reputation of being ‘a bit weird’.

And who needs women anyhow,when there is porn and a good hand?
Perhaps a women wants to mercy fuck* me,but that’s not going to happen because I feel that sex is something that belongs in a relationship.

I don’t want to be called Mr. 0.5 seconds, so it must be with someone that have proved that they can be trusted,and does have genuine feelings for me.

*Fucking someone because you feel deeply sorry for them.
 There is very little difference between a mercy fuck and a pity fuck.
