Column: Born-Again Virginity — Not

In Christianity, the term “born again” refers to a spiritual or metaphorical rebirth, or the accepting of the Lord as Savior. Today, “born again” has been removed 10 times over from its original meaning and morphed into what is convenient for the speaker. People claim they are born-again vegans, born-again Americans, a born-again Elvis, and more recently born-again virgins. This born-again virgin movement has been around for some time, but has been brought into the spotlight, as of late, by “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Danielle Staubs. She claims after two failed marriages she wants to do things differently. She says she is abstaining from sex until her next marriage and has already been abstinent for a year. I say good for her. I just wouldn’t call it becoming a virgin again/ Erin Harty , UI Argonaut. More here .
