Today the Romans traditionally honored Saint Agnes, patron saint of chastity, so it seems like a great time to think "like a virgin." But wait, let's go back to the original meaning of the word. A virgin was a woman not under the care and control of a father, brother, or husband; an autonomous woman, independent and not required to answer to any man or child. According to Marilyn Frye, author of Willful Virgin, "virgins are wild and willful humans, not subjugated property."

Today, regardless of your gender, act like a virgin. Close your eyes and picture yourself as a wild and willful human. How do you dress? What do you desire? Who do you love? How do you live your life? Now open your eyes and spend the day living like a virgin. You may choose to hold on to your virginity for a long, long time.
