In this iCarly episode, Sam tells the world that Freddie never kissed a girl (they were all like 13-14 at this time). It’s one of those episodes where you have to “read between the lines”. They were using kissing as a metaphor for having sex. Being an adult virgin is a very big deal, and it’ll ruin your social life if people find out. Some people like to have sex “just to get it over with”, and I think that’s what the iKiss episode was going for. Everyone bullying Freddie for not kissing a girl is actually the most realistic thing out of any Nick show or comedy.

And this goes for male or female: if you are a virgin in your 20s, you will get made fun of BY EVERYONE if they find out.

    Dude, seriously, you need to talk with someone, like a mental health professional. Your obsession with virginity is very concerning. If you are not already an incel, I think you are very close to becoming one.

    i’m sorry, but it will not ruin your social life if people find out you’re a virgin.

    Adults grow out of that hyperfixation on perceived group approval - but it probably doesn’t even matter in high school. Adults don’t ask each other about this stuff. It sounds like some manosphere incel BS.

    Question: how old are you?

    I’m a 34 year old virgin and nobody has ever made fun of me for it. It rarely even comes up in conversation.

    You need better ‘friends’, beacuse no-one cares if you’ve had sex or not.

    First off, I wouldn’t take anything from a junior high level sitcom seriously.

    Second, no one cares if you’re a virgin. And if they do care, their opinion on the subject is irrelevant.

    Stop worrying about it.
