I made a post on Showerthoughts saying if you are a guy and you are a virgin at 22 years old, you are fucked because most women in their 20s have sexual experience, so if you are a 22-year-old guy, a woman who’s 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, or 30 wouldn’t want to date you because they have sexual experience already.

However, I could be wrong, so do some women with sexual experience date a virgin? If so, why?

Yes. Source: my life. Having sexual experiences does not mean you only want to date people with sexual experiences. Your premise is flawed from the get-go.

If so, why?

Why not? Sex is a normal human desire for a majority of people. Whether someone has had sex previously or not doesn't change that fact. Why should it matter if someone has a body count or not?

I think a better question is: Why is your picture of women so messed up? Why do you think they are so absurdly shallow that they have these arbitrary standards? Women are humans, not some separate species. You want to fuck, and so do they.

If they don't want to fuck you in particular, that's not because you're 22 and a virgin, that's more likely because you have this weird view about what women are like that influences your thoughts and behavior.

And to be completely honest, you sound like someone who has been listening to toxic masculinity goobers like Andrew Tate, or at least other people who listen to them. My recommendation: go out and meet some women. Make friends with them. Actually bother to learn about them as individuals, and notice how they're not at all like the caricature you've invented.
