Line 314:
*** Considering that {{spoiler|he is his own perfect companion, his virginity may not count.}}
* Averted by ''[[Glee]]'', which portrays high school students' sex lives very accurately—or at least, more accurately than most shows. Kurt and Artie (unpopular) are both virgins at their introductions, as are Finn and Blaine (popular). Over the course of three seasons {{spoiler|all four of them}} lose their virginity, as do most of the virginal female characters. Special mention goes to Kurt, who explicitly states on two separate occasions that either he isn't ready for sex (to the point of ''literally'' sticking his fingers in his ears and going "la la la" in order to avoid talking about it), or that he wants his first time to be meaningful. On a smaller scale, however, played straight in "The Power of Madonna", when Finn is the only one who sleeps with his intended (in his case, [[Bi the Way|Santana]]) during the "Like a Virgin" number (Emma and Rachel [[My Girl Is Not a Slut|do not]]). It becomes [[Sex as Rite-Of-Passage]], and he "doesn't feel any different."
* In ''[[NCIS]]'', Tony dumps on McGee (who, though nerdy, fulfills most of the stereotyped requirements of manliness as a field agent), in an annoying manner. Ironically McGee in the end has a happier love life even if it takes him a longer time to find a sweetheart.
* In an early episode of ''[[The OC]]'', Seth suggests to Ryan that they "hire some hookers and lose our virginity", and Ryan gives a look that suggests he most likely isn't a virgin. This is probably to highlight the difference between sheltered, nerdy Seth and [[Troubled but Cute]] Ryan.
* Subverted in ''[[Smallville]]''. For the first several seasons Clark was the epitome of the innocent male virgin, to the point that it'd become somewhat of an in-joke among fans, who coined the term "Supervirgin." In one episode, a witch who needs the hair of two virgins for a spell successfully uses Clark's, just in case there was any doubt.
