Olympic hurdler Lolo Jones, a 40-year-old virgin, has also spoken about the challenges of her decision, stating that it has been more difficult than training for the Olympics.

Lauren’s followers have shown strong support, with comments such as, “I’m 29 and still a virgin. It’s great to see women who aren’t ashamed of this,” and “I’m 32, single, never been in a relationship, and a virgin. I live by the motto ‘I am mine before I am ever anyone else’s.’ There’s nothing wrong with waiting for the right person.”

Another supporter added, “Good for you doing what you want with your body,” and a fourth noted, “No pregnancy scares, no worries about STDs.”

While Lauren has faced some criticism, many stand by her, affirming that it’s her right to choose how to live her life.
