I was born adn brought up in Guangzhou, where people around me were quite open about sex. At the age of 18, I just felt I'd lose face if friends knew I was still a virgin.
At that time, both of my parents were busy with their businesses. So during the summer holiday before entering college, I secretly rented an apartment.
My then-boyfriend and I were eager to sleep together. I still clearly remember thinking after my first sex experience:"That's it?" Actually, I didn't feel much of anything.
After I went to college, I was surprised to find that many people were still virgins. Over time, I realized that I had bought into the media culture around me.
Sex seemed to be everywhere - on TV, in magazines. Even song lyrics contained sexual overtones. They had made me think everyone was doing it.
