Today, I overheard my 14-year-old daughter telling her friend that she's saving money to get her hymen surgically removed so her first time won't hurt. FML

Because the surgery won't hurt afterwards...

Time to have the talk with your daughter... And if that doesn't work, tell her that all surgeries like that require the doctors to get permission from parents no matter the age, and that she's going to have to wait for some years to come until she came have her first time.

Does she realize that it can still hurt even if someone has already torn their hymen or was born without one?

Didn't you read the FML? The daughter is already waiting to came. On a serious note, I have nothing better to do than attempt to make a joke here......

She may not necessarily be planning on sex soon. But if you can find a way to bring it up, maybe tell her if she's planning on saving herself for someone special, he may not believe she's a virgin without a hymen. It may make her think twice, both about the surgery and about giving it up to just anyone.

Yeah...a hymen, or the lack of one, doesn't indicate virginity. Only ignorance perpetuates the belief that virgins must have an intact hymen.
kittykat_bw13 12
and why would it matter? If you are willing to give yourself that completely to someone, yet they don't believe you when you tell them something, I don't think theyre the right person.

Agreed with 39. After all, there's no evidence required on the part of the boy.

And why should the guy care if it's actually her first time? It's relevant if she's new to sex, because that means he should take it slowly and be especially attentive to her level of comfort, but there isn't really that much difference between the first time and the second time. Is this more of that "purity" nonsense? Men love to think that their penises change women's states of being but the truth is that it doesn't (except when pregnancy happens). Penises don't even change a woman's hymen if sufficient foreplay and lube is used. Besides, it's creepy as hell that guys would want to be a girl's first while believing that the first time necessarily hurts her. These men get off on hurting women and that's messed up. But yeah, the first time doesn't have to hurt. If it starts to hurt, the penetration should stop and more foreplay and/or lube should be introduced as needed unless

Any man that will drop a woman for not being a virgin, is a douche.

That actually happened to me with my first time. I broke it through experimentation and when I finally had sex the guy accused me of lying "because I didn't bleed". And in fact, he WAS a douche.

62- the idea that hurting people during sexual acts as bad just adds to the stigma of bdsm being a wrong thing

On the bright side, at least you know she is still a virgin.

Pretty sure is broke my hymen with a tampon. So she may not even have one.
jeepers_1 21
Your "hymen" doesn't actually break.
little_one 20
Well the first time I had sex there was no bleeding at all. Still painful yes, I figured the first I used a tampon broke my hymen since it was extremely uncomfortable I may have angled it wrong or something never bothered me like that again once I got the hang of it. Just a personal theory.
XcuzimsotiredX 25
no like you literally don't break your hymen. it doesn't break. if they get your period it's already got a hole in it. also meaning your first time SHOULD NOT HURT
little_one 20
My first time hurt a little, maybe he was larger than average but it took two tries and a lot of patience to get it in. After I was kinda sore, I wouldn't say it's painful but I also wouldn't say it's painless. Also maybe break isn't the right term but hymens can tear and bleed. Your hymen doesn't always cover the entire opening allowing you to have your period.

She seems smart, maybe steer that intelligence into more age-appropriate activities

You must've raised her right...

Hey... maybe she's onto something.
Lars93 18
she at least won't be having sex for the up comming years, be glad.

Talk to her, give her as much info as possible and explain that the first time shouldn't hurt anyway if your partner is gentle and you're completely ready. The fact so many people think the first time is supposed to hurt is really sad. Or if she is at that stage where it's uncool to listen to a parent direct her to some books or even some sex+ videos like Laci Green. she's really good at explaining stuff in a relatable way to young girls.

I watched a BDSM video from Laci Green once. It was full of misinformation. The only thing good thing about it was that she misinformed in a sex positive way.
sicksadworld1317 30
71, exactly which misinformation was it full of? I saw the Laci Green BDSM videos (I believe she has two now), and both videos have healthy and smart information for the target age group of young adults looking to experiment with BDSM play. If you're pissy because the videos weren't as comprehensive as they could have been; you might want to keep in mind that those new to the lifestyle or activities don't necessarily want every fetish and kink in the book thrown at them at once. BDSM is not one size fits all, and has a unique interpretation to every person who experiences it. Laci did a great job of distinguishing BDSM from abuse and giving examples of some of the implements and fetishes involved. I fail to see how any part of that represents misinformation to the target audience.
fakedsincerity 32
#71 as someone whose been in the lifestyle for a good few years I found her videos pretty good for newbies who want to just dabble and want avoid the awful way 50 shades portrayed their abusive relationship masquerading as BDSM. But either way, that's really irrelevant to the point of the OPs daughters misinformation about hymens and sex.
