Cayce LaCorte has gone viral on social media after revealing that she's raising her daughters to believe there's 'no such thing as virginity' as it's a 'patriarchal concept'

Author Cayce LaCorte has gone viral on TikTok after responding to a challenge by @nevadashareef asking people to "name something about the way you raised your kids that people think is weird but you think is healthy."

The mum, from South Carolina, made her own video saying: "I'm raising my five daughters to believe that there is no such thing as virginity.
"It is a patriarchal concept used to control women and serves no purpose other than making women feel bad about ourselves.

"Just because some guy randomly sticks his penis in you at some point in your life, it does not change your worth, it's not changing who you are. It doesn't do anything other than it happened.

"Sex is important, it's a big deal, it should always be a big deal. It has nothing to do with your first time and it's just ridiculous and I get a lot of c**p from other mums saying 'Oh well don't you think that will make your daughters promiscuous?'
"I was like, no. I'm raising them to be good people and have solid foundations and like make your own choices and make smart, intelligent choices, not because some book says not to."

More than two million people have since watched the clip, with over 500,000 liking it and 22,000 commenting.

People were divided over the idea, with some really supporting it and others being unsure.
One person wrote: "OMG!!! As a therapist, there is much praise I want to drop here for you!!"

Another said: "We need to normalise this!!! You just shifted my perspective in 15 seconds, it makes so much sense. Thank you so much."
"Love this, always taught my daughters that it is more important to protect their credit score than their virginity," replied a third.

Someone else posted: "Why do I feel the same way but didn't realise I felt that way until hearing this?"

However, a different user asked: "How do you teach your daughters this? What about when they go to big school and it's all everyone talks about?"

"I think virginity is a legit thing," admitted a second. "People tend to put other meanings behind it tho and make it more than it actually is."
"Wow, I have no idea how to feel about this honestly, it goes against everything I was taught but my mind is blown and I kind of love it," added a fellow TikTok user.

Seems fair. It's not entirely accurate to say there's no such thing, but it is silly that we place so much more value on somebody's first time having sex than on their first time doing other things. The concept of virginity really isn't acknowledged in a formal sense for non-sexual activities, beyond recognizing the impact that a lack of experience will have on performance.

Basically, the state of not having had sex before does in fact exist, just as the state of not having tried a peanut butter and banana sandwich exists. There's no reason, though, for it to exist so formally, with its own special name and a bunch of social significance attached to it, and the only way to change that is to deny the concept's legitimacy.

Identifying as a group when it comes to being an 'incel' is fine, but you are not being erased by this, and it isn't a 'culture', by definition. You can still gather in groups, and talk about sexuality in a healthy and productive way.

I think it would be beneficial to the incel community to place less emphasis on the 'importance' of losing virginity or having sex in general.

Some people have a fair bit of sex, some people don't, some people go through phases. What should be made important is communication around sex, and not "OMG WHEN WILL I/YOU LOSE MY/YOUR VIRGINITY". That's how it felt for me. People bullied me about it. At the end of the day, there were times where I was sexually active, and times where I am not/was not. It is part of my life, but not that important over-all.

My parents never talked about sex and virginity with me, that's part of why it got so blown up in my head. Other teenagers were the driving force behind my thoughts on sex and sexuality, instead of adults/professionals. Even sex-ed classes laughed and made jokes about virginity - not really that healthy.

Good on this mom for talking about such difficult, but everyday facts of life.

Largely untrue, considering how much value we place on any other number of firsts. And this in particular has a reason to be significant. And, honestly, you're a lot more likely to remember your first kiss and your first fuck than a lot of other firsts.

And do you think that's because there are any practical reasons to consider those more significant life events than other firsts, or simply because there's so much social significance attached to it?

Loaded question, really. There's certainly a very logical emotional reason to attach significance to those events, which is probably why they're so culturally recognized and have social significance in the first place. And in cultures with fewer and fewer rites of passage, I suppose it's natural that their social significance has only grown with time.

Just because social significance is placed on something, does not mean it is healthy or beneficial.

Also another note. Hymens can remain intact or not intact regardless of 'virginity'. so they should not inherently be associated with virginity. instead the conversation should be more nuanced and factual, as this mother seems to be doing, imo.

If you attach the "patriarchal concept" aspects of virginity onto it, that's all on you.

All it is is a term indicating whether you've had sex or not. That's it.

You might as well be getting all uppity about the term "newbie". Trying to hide or get rid of a word won't change the fact that someone will have either had prior exposure to X thing, or not -- and whether or not you attach a term to such experience (or lack thereof), other people and prospective relationship partners will evaluate and weigh such experience (or lack thereof) accordingly to their own values. You can't put a stop to that, any more than you can't put a stop to employers not hiring you because of your lack of work experience.

I'm all for teaching kids not to place virginity on some kind of weird pedestal, but I don't feel sheltering them from the term entirely is the correct way to go about it.

That can be broke without sex. This story is weird though. Not only is virginity if a girl/woman has sex but also if a guy has too so I don't understand this shit. IF you've had sex you're not a virgin. It's that simple. Having lots of sex with many people has a stigma to it as does having none at all.

sure, we all know from his few years trolling hes a misogynist and a neo-nazi apologist. but he watched a youtube video on the story of zeus and thought to himself, a mythological character who had sex with not only his siblings, but his children, animals and fictional creatures, where do i sign up, ok?

It's actually a shitty take, and overlooks that downplaying virginity is a tactic very frequently employed by the perpetrators of said abuse trying to justify and normalize their behavior towards their victims. This is especially true when it comes to the practice of grooming.

The concept of virginity is outdated anyway.

It's not some special thing that you have to wait till you're married to lose or no one will value you as a woman.

That's just dumb nonsense some dudes made up.

Thank you for nicely summarizing how I feel every time I respond to your posts, but I still feel I must point out how rude it is to not answer a question when asked. Very poor conversational etiquette.

Given that you're apparently unable to do anything to refute the support I've provided for this position (which should be really easy, given that my support is "there's no reason to consider virginity special" and all that's necessary to refute that is to provide a reason), I'd say I've satisfied the burden of proof for any claims I'm making. Meanwhile, you're claiming that "virginity's important because it just is, and that's the only reason it has cultural and social significance," which I'd say is a thoroughly absurd claim in its own right, and "just because" very much does not satisfy the burden of proof.

If you think I'm saying wrong things, you should be able to prove me wrong (very easily, if I am in fact being as silly as you seem to think I am). If you can't, then you have no reason to think that I'm wrong and should amend your beliefs accordingly. It's very simple, and your refusal to play along is only making you look more wronger.

Zeus posted...

Actually, it originated from the possessive objectification that has (and does) resulted in women being treated as property to be exchanged as favours for social status. It's an ownership/power thing, which has less to do with virginity having some magical special significance and more men feeling better about themselves when they have their property all to themselves. Which, you know, you'd have realized if you actually spent three seconds thinking critically about the matter instead of defaulting to the lazy "that's just the way it's done so that means it's okay" approach you apparently take to all of life.

You might as well be getting all uppity about the term "newbie".

The key difference being that "newbie" is a general-purpose term, which is modified by context and qualifiers to provide a useful description of experience levels. "Virgin" is a special term made just for sex (it can be adopted into other contexts with specific qualifiers, but I feel it goes without saying that those aren't particularly relevant here), which is assigned significance in far more contexts than the one in which it's relevant. Even during sex, it's an arbitrary milestone that indicates very little about overall sex-having ability (the only functional difference between "I've had intercourse once" and "I've never had intercourse" is the fact that there might be a bit of blood/pain during penetration, and even then, dildos are a thing), meaning it's a pretty useless description.

The mere existence of the term "virginity" isn't what's being objected to here (hence my disclaimer that "virginity doesn't exist" isn't entirely accurate), it's treating virginity as a special concept that requires specific recognition and should have social significance attached to it. It's really not, and I'm all in favour of this mother teaching her kids not to put it on a pedestal the way so much of society does.

Outside of really extreme cases (on either end), dick size really doesn't influence that much about how enjoyable sex is, and I say this as somebody who's larger (in both respects) than 99.9% of North American dudes. Angling thrusts properly is generally going to be much more pleasurable than simply penetrating deeper or stretching further, and the vast majority of women rely more on external stimulation than penetration to get off. And that's without even considering the emotional angle of things, which can often do just as much (if not more) than the physical experience to make somebody feel good.

HornedLion posted...

It's not so much hate for hymens as it is hate for the idea that the presence or absence of a hymen means anything significant. Even if we presume that virginity is a meaningful concept (which is a big if), the hymen is not at all a reliable indicator of it, and treating it as being significant (to the point of some people - even in America - having doctors perform "purity checks" on their daughters) is therefore foolish at best. At worst, it gets downright abusive.

Her daughters are aged from seven to sixteen so I believe they are actually virgins. This is more about how society sees woman who have a lot of sex with different people compared to how they see men. In general men are often praised for sleeping about when woman are not. On the other side of the coin though a guy who hasn't had sex is looked down upon where as a woman who hasn't is often praised as "pure". These are all old fashioned was of thinking. Still even now we are told obese is beautiful in woman but you asked these woman if they date a "plus size" man and they certainly would not as they find it gross so double standards will always be a thing. I do agree with you. Virginity means you haven't had sex and this woman isn't going to change that no matter what she tells her daughters.

That's not on society, that's on biology. It's pretty important for the species that men want to spread their seed as much as they can and women want to be more picky with who they fuck, otherwise we wouldn't be much more than monkeys still

Discriminate breeding on the females part is important because it let's the species get better instead of letting every bum water down the gene pool

Outside of really extreme cases (on either end), dick size really doesn't influence that much about how enjoyable sex is, and I say this as somebody who's larger (in both respects) than 99.9% of North American dudes. Angling thrusts properly is generally going to be much more pleasurable than simply penetrating deeper or stretching further, and the vast majority of women rely more on external stimulation than penetration to get off. And that's without even considering the emotional angle of things, which can often do just as much (if not more) than the physical experience to make somebody feel good.

It's not so much hate for hymens as it is hate for the idea that the presence or absence of a hymen means anything significant. Even if we presume that virginity is a meaningful concept (which is a big if), the hymen is not at all a reliable indicator of it, and treating it as being significant (to the point of some people - even in America - having doctors perform "purity checks" on their daughters) is therefore foolish at best. At worst, it gets downright abusive.

I fucking love you, man.

adjl is the fucking man. He brought math into a discussion about science, and got me to rethink a stance I had regarding vaccinations and ASD rates.

That's not on society, that's on biology.

No it's a society thing. It doesn't matter how many people you fuck or don't when it comes to biology. Also some people can't reproduce or simply don't want to. Being a woman doesn't automatically mean their self-worth amounts to nothing more than a baby making machine.

What's wrong with what I said? Women being picky partners and not just giving it up for just anyone they see was important for the evolution of mankind and went back before any actual societies existed

By that logic surely men should be more picky too. Also having sex doesn't automatically mean getting pregnant.

How is there no such thing as virginity? Have her daughters had sex yet? If the answer is no they're virgins, that's how language works. You can't just say a label isn't real because you don't like connotations behind it

Basically, the state of not having had sex before does in fact exist, just as the state of not having tried a peanut butter and banana sandwich exists. There's no reason, though, for it to exist so formally, with its own special name and a bunch of social significance attached to it, and the only way to change that is to deny the concept's legitimacy.

Already covered, dude. Yes, virginity exists, but there's no reason to put it on a pedestal over the state of not having done anything else.

That's not on society, that's on biology. It's pretty important for the species that men want to spread their seed as much as they can and women want to be more picky with who they fuck, otherwise we wouldn't be much more than monkeys still

Discriminate breeding on the females part is important because it let's the species get better instead of letting every bum water down the gene pool

You should probably take more than high school biology before trying to act like you understand the subject of evolution. Evolution is not directed. There's no goal or drive behind it. It simply happens, as those that produce more offspring have their genes become more prevalent in the population. Sexual selection does entail deliberate choices on the part of the female (or males, in species like seahorses where males have higher reproductive investment than females), but that's quite distinct from natural selection, and often has nothing to do with "improving" the species by any practical measure. Peacocks are perhaps the most obvious example of this: Those tails are stupid and impractical and dramatically reduce males' ability to avoid predators, but because females prefer larger ones, males with larger ones end up being reproductively successful enough to dominate the gene pool.

In species with biparental care (there's actually some room to question whether or not humans evolved as such a species, since early homonids tended to form tribal groups to raise their young, but they still definitely did not evolve to fit the paradigm you're suggesting of "males impregnate every woman they can"), you don't get that runaway sexual selection because both parents are invested in the offspring and therefore benefit from choosing "good" partners. Males still have less direct investment, given that they can skip the whole gestation thing, but they still want to pick a healthy, fertile mate. It's very much not a matter of women being the only picky ones. In fact, throughout most of history and even much of the modern world, women aren't really given a significant say in choosing their mates.

Of course, none of this is remotely relevant to non-reproductive sex. Instincts are all well and good, but when reproduction is taken out of the equation (which is the case for the vast majority of sex in the modern world, thanks to birth control), knowing that supersedes instincts.
