As I wrote in my previous column, it has even tried to humiliate female activists by subjecting them to forced “virginity exams. 正如我在先前的专栏中所写到的,他们甚至试图通过强制进行“童贞测试”来羞辱女性活动者。
But, maybe we need to throw out the idea of virginity altogether, toss away the idea that you “lose” something from a single act. 但是,也许我们需要完全丢掉处女这个概念,不要有从一个行为中你会失去什么的想法。
