the baffling silliness of the loose woman theory

A tale as old as time, the truly flabbergasting and ignorant theory of the loose vagina. I’m sure every woman has heard it before, and I’m fairly confident more men than we think believe in it’s legitimacy. Of which it doesn’t have any, but beside the point. The loose woman, the kind of girl who’s slept with more than two partners in her whole life - she’s used, she’s loose. Apparently the belief that because of how much she’s slept around, she must have a looser vagina is worryingly popular. Partially due to the sheer lack of anatomical knowledge. But here are my indisputable reasons as to why this is factually incorrect - this isn’t even my opinion, this is straight up facts. A side point, I think people who feel they can have an opinion on proven facts are wilfully ignorant because an opinion is something you can have about whether or not you like oranges. An example of something you cannot have an opinion on: how a body works. Whether France actually exists.

Onto the actual discussion.

To begin, let’s go over the anatomy. Vaginas are elastic - they always go back to their original shape, unless they’ve had significant trauma inflicted on them. No, Kyle, you’re not big enough to inflict the kind of trauma I’m talking about. I mean particularly difficult childbirths, etc. And even then, most return back to their original size after healing - if even a newborn head the size of a watermelon can be squeeze out and it still returns to the original shape, I highly doubt sleeping around is gonna have the kind of impact that the loose vagina theory suggests. Furthermore, when turned on (like you would have to be during sexual interactions), a vagina naturally becomes looser. So, really, if you’re getting it on with someone who has a vagina and they’re really as tight as you want them to be, you’re probably not as competent as you think you are.

If we completely disregard the anatomical facts, then I have a more posing question to really split the loose woman argument in two. Statistically, women have more sex whilst in relationships. So, theoretically, if the theory was correct and ‘excessive’ sex resulted in looser vaginas, then women in relationships would be significantly looser than women that aren’t in relationships. If a woman has had twenty partners and has only had sex with each of them once, when compared to a woman who has only had one partner in her life but has been in a relationship for even just a year, chances are, the latter has had more sexual encounters than the former.

The whole argument is silly and obnoxious in my opinion, and was invented by men (because most women know how their own bodies work) that dislike women having higher body counts and wanted a ‘legitimate’ reason to justify their distaste, something that can’t be traced back to what it actually is: sexism. Because men are not held to the same standard of expected chastity. But that’s just my opinion - because that’s what an opinion is. Something that isn’t factually proven, but I believe there’s some truth in it. But the loose woman theory? That’s just my relaying of facts in my own words - they’re not disputable because they are simply proven to be true. In the same way as if you believe you can have the opinion that this theory is correct despite it’s status as factually disproven, most people are going to think you’re ignorant and sexist.

Because that’s factual.
