This is a question that I resisted answering for a long time as it is not strictly a medical issue. However, a lot of our subscribers are asking this question. A virgin is culturally accepted as a person (male or female) who has not had sexual intercourse. Virginity has _nothing to do_ with any physical characteristic. In females, there is a thin bit of tissue, called the hymen, in the vagina that can rupture during the first act of penetration. This is what gives rise to the bleeding that you are asking about. However, this tissue can also rupture from exercise, and other physical activity. The structure of the hymen can also vary from being completely absent to being thin and elastic to being thick and in some cases, it may even obstruct the vaginal opening. It is possible that even if present it may not rupture during sexual intercourse. Owing to this wide variation in the structure of the hymen and the fact that it can rupture from physical activity, absence of bleeding should not be taken as a sign of lack of virginity. Bleeding may also occur due to injury to the vagina during sex. Bleeding from the vagina _is not_ an indication of virginity. Absence of bleeding _does not_ mean that a woman is not a virgin.
