Most Indian Men Want Virgin Brides - Half Of Indian Men Had Sex With Prostitutes
<snip>

Nearly two-thirds of young Indian men expect the woman they marry to be a virgin, but nearly half have had sex with prostitutes, according to a poll.

The survey of more than 2,500 men aged between 16 and 25 conducted by India Today magazine across 11 cities found that 49 percent claimed to have had sex with a sex worker while 37 percent said they had had a homosexual experience.

But 63 percent of young men in conservative India said they expected the women they married to be a virgin.

The average age of their first sexual encounter appears to be falling -- to 18 years from 23 in a similar survey two years ago, but condom use is on the rise, the report said. More than half of the men surveyed said they always used a condom.

Fourteen percent of those surveyed said they had had sex with a member of their own family.

1. So they're just as deluded with double standards as (most) American men. So what?

3. Most American men want (and expect) to marry a virgin?
Or American guys also have different but still have double standards? The latter I agree with, the former not.

7. I honestly don't know what men think...
Except they want sex with no effort put into relationships and seem to prefer women who are pure, at least for their first marriage...

9. Yeah; remember when I asked "Are you me?"
Lately I've turned love into hate and it's serving me well. I hope you don't resemble me to that extent :hug:
