a person who has never had sexual intercourse
from Latin virgo 'maiden, unmarried woman'
Concept varies across cultures
Historically loaded with gendered meaning tied to female purity, marriageability, and male control. Male 'virgin' lacks the same moral/social weight.
Use 'inexperienced' or task-specific language ('new to coding'). When sex/sexuality relevant, use neutral descriptors if needed at all.
["inexperienced","first-time","unfamiliar"]
Women's virginity was weaponized as property/control; moving away from gendered purity language honors bodily autonomy.
