The three sexually active guys all, after agonzing personal experiences, commiserate that maybe celibacy ain't so bad after all?
The virgin, instead of being portrayed as a loser with some serious neuroses, is just a guy who... has never been laid.
If you missed all the speechifying and moralizing about how wonderful "waiting" was (is), and how glorious his life now is--- while the lives of his horny-fucker friends went down in well-deserved flames--- I can't help you.
Basic theme, which hit you over the head like a cartoon club: sex before marriage bad, celibacy good.
My friend's teenage girl says in her group it's said more succinctly, "No rang, no thang."
BTW, glad you're ok after that hiking episode. Reminds me of how lucky I was in Bolivia and Peru. I did lots of vigorous hiking above 15-thousand feet but was in my 20s and early 30s. Good thing, too, as there was NO medical help (except, maybe, for a shaman) for hundreds of miles (nope, no helicopters, or even decent wheeled transpo).
Great pics, too...

Sorry... I have to agree with everything Analog Scott said in his reply to this post. Methinks you are over-reaching here. Or, perhaps, just trying to incite ;-)
I would love to hike/trek in/visit Bolivia and Peru and the high desert in Chile and Patagonia. I've never been to South America and it may have to be next when I travel outside of the US again.
I'd been up over 18,000 feet in the past with no problems but, like you that was late 20's early 30's.

I guess we didn't see the same movie. I nevr saw that. I do remeber one of them hooking up with the sex freak. yeah he was considering celibacy. not

"The virgin, instead of being portrayed as a loser with some serious neuroses, is just a guy who... has never been laid."

Are we talking about the guy with a half million dollar toy collection. a bicycle instead of a car and an Asia poster? Noooo he wasn't portrayed as a loser. LMAO. He looked amazingly hip. Oh yeah, he was a stock clerk at a crap electronics store. Way cool. Can't imagine why he never got laid.

"If you missed all the speechifying and moralizing about how wonderful "waiting" was (is), and how glorious his life now is--- while the lives of his horny-fucker friends went down in well-deserved flames--- I can't help you."

I gues you can't help us. All I saw was a guy who wanted to get laid but after a multitude of failed attempts built up so much angxiety that he was just avoiding it. Did you forget that the guy was embarrassed about it? Did you forget that a room full of geeks laughed at the idea of a 40 year old virgin? Did you get any of the jokes?

"Basic theme, which hit you over the head like a cartoon club: sex before marriage bad, celibacy good."

Nope, you didn't get the jokes.

"My friend's teenage girl says in her group it's said more succinctly, 'No rang, no thang.'"

What movie did you see? It wasn't 40 yer old virgin.
