Default Re: I am still a virgin...

What kind of help was she looking for precisely??



She was asking them to help her as she was new in the job. They were a group of journalists who were about to leave to work on their reports. This new girl has never done a report before. Does this make sense?


Quote:
At root, the term "virgin" applies to those who are sexually inexperienced, but the word has wider uses.


For sure it is not this meaning. But what are these other uses, Ron?


Quote:
A virgin in this sense is someone who hasn't done something before. I have never tried parachuting, so if someone asked me is I wanted to go, I could say that I was scared because I was a virgin.
I thought about it this way, tdol, but then I was confused why she connected the two things togather. Is there any other expression I can use instead?


Thanks all.
