Me do virginity test at my age? What do I want to prove with it? Hmm, any guy that expects me to still be virgin at this stage is living in a fool’s paradise. If he is insisting that I go for it or threatens me with it, then he can forget about the relationship.

Am I a baby? If we quit the relationship over the so-called virginity test, life would still continue. It is not the end of the world. If the guy involved is just asking and he does so nicely, it’s okay but virginity test, count me out.

The first time he saw me, I’m sure he must have been attracted to my unique selling points especially those relating to my physical features. There is no way any man would take a good look at me and begin to play with the unrealistic possibility that I might still be a virgin. That’s bull s..t, if I’m permitted to use that word. Look, I’m not a virgin and any man that loves me should not insist on my doing any damn virginity test. I might personally call off the relationship. Nonsense!

Remi Davies
See me see trouble o! Do I look like a virgin? One hard truth is that these days, when you meet a young girl with lipstick on her lips and every other thing in place, she’s most likely no longer a virgin. That’s the truth of the matter. The only place where you can get a virgin these days is in the village but the sad part is that in the villages that we now have, there are girls who are even more wayward than you think. If my guy is insisting that I go for virginity test, I will but he should have it at the back of his mind that the result won’t be positive. Now guess what? Do you know that these days, men like their women to be ‘tested and trusted’ (laughter). I won’t advise any man to marry a virgin. What if she cannot perform?

Maureen Odigie
As for me, if I really love him, I will go for it especially if I am convinced that it would help the relationship. Hey! Why are you asking me if I am a virgin or not? Are you my boyfriend or fiancé? I said leave me alone. I cannot answer that question.

Bisola Muhammed
If I am sure that I am a virgin why not but the truth of the matter is that being a virgin or not is not a big deal. As for me, I am still a virgin.

Titi Vera-Cruz
If my guy tells me that I have to go for a virginity test, I’ll bluntly tell him to vamoose. Is he a virgin himself? At this stage of one’s life, being a virgin or not is insignificant. At one point in time, it must have happened somewhere with someone. There’s no big deal being a virgin these days. There are more important things to be thought about. I’m not saying being a virgin is not a good thing o! Let me make it very clear, if you’re still a virgin, good luck to you but if you’re not, stay happy. I have even heard that there is a place on Allen Avenue where they can do certain things between your legs that would make you a virgin again.

Rasheedat Alejo
When I know I’m intact, why would I be scared of such a test? There’s nothing wrong in a man asking his woman to go through such a test. He probably just wants to be sure.

Taiwo Funmilayo
I’ll definitely go for it because I am sure of myself. I would however be wondering why he wants me to go for such. Isn’t asking a better option? The only justification would probably be if he wants to confirm. If I was not a virgin, there’s no way I would go for the test.

Ngozi Anyawike
Me! I won’t go because after everything, he might still disappoint me. What if he ends up not marrying me? There is no guarantee that he will marry me at the end of the day.

Temitope Onifade
Virginity test for what? If I’m involved with a man who is insisting on making me go through virginity test, then he can go to blazes. In fact, he should go and marry his sister.

Gloria Mowete
What kind of test would it be? I won’t, because my virginity is not meant for the world, it’s supposed to be between God, my future husband and me. I don’t bloody care about the gift that they are offering.

Omowunmi Lawal
Yes, provided the test will not be detrimental to my health. I have the courage because I’m sure of myself and I believe in myself.

Olabisi Johnson
What a funny question! You mean I can still be a virgin at my age? No!No!No!It’s not possible. In fact, it’s even embarrassing telling the whole world that I am a virgin in this modern time. At my age? Haba! What are you talking about?

Akudo Stella
No, I can’t do any virginity test because people can go crazy and give you all sorts of names when they realise that you are a virgin, which could stand as an identity. So it is better you keep it to yourself.

Rita Ekpu
Yes because I believe whatever the result reads or says will be private between me and the doctor carrying out the test without the whole world knowing what category I belong. I also believe The Sun newspaper would not publish what is personal to me without my consent.

Onyinye Collins
No, it’s not necessary, as I am not a virgin. To hell with virginity and with the promised gifts. Why would I subject myself to that type of humiliation when we are not in the stone age?

Helen Ben
Being a virgin at 25? Of course not. If not for education, I would have been in my husband’s house now, where virginity would have been a non-issue.

Nkechi Okonkwo
Yes, I can go for such a test but I don’t have the time, moreover it’s a personal thing and a thing of the mind.
