I have similar views as well. I'm a virgin as well and I don't even discuss anything personal with my family b/c it is embarrassing. I used to open up to friends about past relationships, but now they sort of just want me to be seen and not heard. Anyway, there's this statement that says "If you can't do, teach," so I guess I'm into learning all I can about sex just in case one of my friends needs some advice on the subject (you'd be surprised about how often advice is asked from me about this topic). Oh, and starslight, I wouldn't give up on it if I were you, but I do know that many of my friends have told me that I wasn't missing a lot.
I don't like to talk about it openly (unless it's interesting, important, or I can remain anonymous), but I'm ok with others talking about it as long as it doesn't get too graphic (especially during meals). However, I do get very envious with people who show affection in public, but I don't exactly say anything. I was rasied in a way that made me believe that showing any emotional connection--other than talking--in public was rude, but if others want to do it then I won't stop them.
