Just reading some topics reminded me of an incident 1-2 years ago now.

A mate's girlfriend openly asked me in front of a group of people I know straight up "Are you a virgin?"
I was immediately embarrassed and tried to make some quip but she wasn't accepting that and asked again. I think I just walked away ashamed which must have confirmed her suspicions.

On another occasion, again in a group of people, she told me "You shouldn't sit like that!" and her tone suggested I should be embarrassed. I was sitting on a chair with my right foot resting on my left knee (possibly vice-versa) which I consider perfectly normal. She then whispered in an obvious "I'm whispering about you" kinda way to a mate. I suspected at the time she was asking him if I was a virgin. His response of "Yeah, probably" didn't help quash these thoughts and I still suspect I was right. His tone suggested he didn't want to answer with me so close. It may not soon obvious from that why I would jump to that conclusion but the way she said it implied it, in my opinion.

Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and how you coped with it or if not, how you wuld cope with it?

never openly but if asked I would probably say the truth.

yes.

Yes at my last place of work I was asked on a regular basis. This question was usually posed by several guys my age who meet the whigger stereotype with a couple black gang members. I was severely embarrassed. Like you quietguy, I walked away and I think their suspicions were obviously confirmed.

At my current place of work the first week they were asking a lot of related questions, though not direct questions. When they asked a related question I blushed a lot and they laughed.

Guys seem to figure out quickly if you're a virgin or not. I might as well have a sign on my back.

In the words of one of our first admins, Cold Heart: "If they have to ask it's because they already know."

I've been asked once by the first girl I went out on a date with. Needless to say that besides all the horrible n00b mistakes I was making with that woman, she wouldn't of have stayed with me anyway once she knew the answer. Of course she asked me before our first date so I guess that says something.

I wish I knew what was wring with your way of sitting myself. I thought it was alright for guys to rest their foot on a knee?

An older guy asked me once while we were sitting at a table (in a bar or something) with at least three other people. I couldn't believe why this piece of shit asked this question in the presence of other guys. He is actually a distant relative of mine.

virgin

Yup, and I replied in the affirmative. No point in lying about it, as Ramm just pointed out, they probably already know. And if they know, you're just making a huge fool of yourself by lying.

Nobody's asked me that to my face since I was early 19.

Yes, mostly the guys at the union in the first few years after I got in (in other words, when I still was a virgin.) Naturally, I refused to discuss the topic.
After awhile, it started coming up much less often. I noticed this in mid-2003, around the time I finally shed the albatross. Coincidence or not? I have no idea. I don't think anyone has asked in at least a couple years, now.

I think noncels carry themselves differently most definitely. Its like a guy who pooped his pants. You cant see it upfront, but eventually it will be detected.

If I was asked, I'd just say yes.

If you say, "no" and then they ask why you're never seen with a girl, ever, it gets more awkward.

One of my cousins. Our conversation:

Me: Why ask a question you already know the answer to?
Him: Just askin'. I know this lady who seems to be interested in you, based on the pics I've shown her.
Me: Let me guess: She's twice my weight, possibly pregnant and smells like old milk...
Dude: Yeah, she's the first two things. But you gotta start somewhere.
Me: Right. I can finally enact my voraphillic fantasy by snuggling into her folds and asking her unborn child to move over. [/sarcasm]
Him: ...what's vore?

yeah

That last part made me LOL.
