“I lost my virginity through my ear.”

“My virgin sense of sound was steeped
In the music of young streams;
And roses through the casement peeped,
And scented all my dreams.”

Alfred Austin (1835–1913) British writer and poet

“I love my virginity to the apocalypse.”

Scott Westerfeld (1963) American science fiction writer

“My language is the common prostitute that I turn into a virgin.”

Karl Kraus (1874–1936) Czech playwright and publicist

“I lost my virginity to a [record] skip. "Lay Lady Lay--Lay Lady Lay--Lay Lady Lay". We didn't even get to the big brass bed part.”

Lewis Black (1948) American stand-up comedian, author, playwright, social critic and actor

“I arrived at the house one day, my mother being at work, and heard the sounds of Samuel plunging his penis into my sister’s vagina through her closed room door, along with my sister’s moans. I stood there and listened to it all. So my sister, who was four years younger than me, managed to lose her virginity before I did. It reminded me of how pathetic I was, that at the age of twenty-two, I was still a virgin.”

Elliot Rodger (1991–2014) American spree killer

“now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened”

E.E. Cummings (1894–1962) American poet

“My eye came to rest on the delicate convolutions of her ear-those intricate, perfect ears. The thought passed through my mind: "No, those ears were not created by any chance coming together of atoms in nature (the Communist view). They could have been created only by immense design."”

Whittaker Chambers Witness

“People with lost personalities will suffer a great deal more than those with lost virginities.”
