Losing your virginity is a big deal. When you're in high school especially, losing your V-card can be particularly traumatizing because of the implications that come with it. As a female, you're questioned in every way. Are you a floozy? Is she putting out now? Was that her first time? When you're a high school boy, it's all high fives and back pats, congratulating a job well done. That double standard has been this way as long as humanity has existed.
One high school boy, an 18 year old, played a dangerous game in celebrating the loss of his innocence. After having relations with his girlfriend of 8 months, he finally became the last of his friend group to enter the domaine of manhood. To celebrate, they bought him a frosted cake with "Virginity" written on the front with a huge red X slashing through it– hilarious to a group of hootin' and hollerin' teenaged boys. Things went south when a video of him blowing out the candles of his V-cake got posted in an online story, letting everyone know that his cat was out of its bag.
The teen's girlfriend saw the story and was furious.
Obviously since everyone knew they were a couple, this implicated her as well. Naturally, the whole thing blew up in his face and now the Internet is up in arms about their relationship. She threatened to break up with him after being publicly shamed; she hated that all of their friends knew about their intimate relationship. The boyfriend immediately took the video down once she called him out on it and made her threats.
She eventually came around though, because the cake itself was actually pretty funny. For her it was more about sharing the details of their physical relationship than it was having the world know that they were doing it. She was a pretty good sport for what could have been a disastrous end to a beautiful beginning.
