Virginity
Virginity is a term used as an expression of purity. In its most common context, it is a concept that refers to the state of a person never having engaged in sexual intercourse. A person who still has his or her virginity can accordingly be described as being a virgin.Alternatively, the term can indicate a general lack of experience in other activities outside the realm of sexuality, such as a player of bingo being described as virgin when she/he is a newcomer to the game. This word for purity can also be applied to some food and beverage products. For example, some cocktails can be described as being "virgin" when they lack alcoholic content. Similarly, olive oil may be called "virgin" or "extra-virgin" if it comes from the first pressing and contains no refined oil.
