Virginity Value: “Adolescent virginity has a significant impact on well-being in middle adulthood,” says Focus on the Family Medical Issues Analyst Reginald Finger, M.D., M.P.H. “Men and women who were virgins at age 18, when evaluated approximately 20 years later, had about half the risk of divorce, had completed about an additional year of education and had annual incomes nearly 20% higher than those who were not virgins at 18. We used 18 as the cutoff age because it gave approximately equal populations of virgins and non-virgins to study.” (Pastor’s Weekly Briefing 5/13/05)
