Attitudes like this, said Su Lei, a professor at Guangdong Academy of Social Sciences, show that "conservative conception of virginity hasn't faded away in China."
"For some young men, in particular, male superiority remains deeply rooted in their hearts. The traditional view that a broken hymen equals unchastity still has a hold on them."
Females might be a little more laid back on this issue, but that doesn't mean they don't want their men to be virgins.
Pan Xiaoyu, 24, who is now thinking about marrying her boyfriend, said:"I would feel cheated if I am a virgin and he isn't. The best circumstances are that we truly love each other, and both of us are virgins. If one breaks the balance, the relationship may be difficult to maintain."
This view was echoed by Pan Suiming, a sex study expert at Renmin University.
"For lots of college students, marriage is still far away. Some may be unconcerned about virginity for the moment. But may be after five or ten years when they are in real society and in a serious relationship, some might change their views."
