Why Are Virgins Fetishized?
 
 
Double Standards: ‘Men who have pre-marital sex want virgin brides’
*DISCLAIMER* This topic does not pertain to ALL men, nor is it about ALL relationships or marriages. However, this is highlighting a few cases where this happens.

Whilst India is broadening its horizons, it remains trapped in patriarchal thinking as there are severe double standards between men and women when it comes to marriage and sex.

A few years ago, a friend of mine had an argument with a South Asian male online. He was a womaniser and bragged about sleeping around but highlighted his desire for a virgin bride. He felt he could “teach her” what he liked. It’s this shocking perception which allow men to objectify all women, fetishize virgins and discard non-virgin women.
