As a multicultural person, depends what society you’re in. Western culture is hedonistic and obsessed with sex, while the more conservative non-Western cultures are prude and ascetic. Either way, both cultures put sex on pedestal. When one loses their virginity doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things. Humans are weird creatures for having this attitude on sex.
It’s fundamentally different for humanity. A bug has sex, shits out a thousand eggs, and then dies by flying into a rock moving at speed. A monkey cares for its young for a year. Gorillas are considered crazy for having a three year long rearing process. And then there are humans with fucking 12 years, a sixth of your life at absolute minimum for our children to avoid dying by just existing in society. Preganancy historically, and presently, killing leagues of women certainly doesn’t dissuade the careful choice. Sex has only very recently, broadly speaking, become a safe diversion, and human culture is slow to adapt.
Women are also generally able to get pregnant year-round, which is unusual in the animal kingdom. And AFAIK there are only a couple of species where the women can actually have a good orgasm, though obviously that’s kind of difficult to test.
