It has nothing to do with shame, it has to do with strategy, it has to do with influence, nobody will respect you if they know without a doubt you haven't put your dick in a hole, and that will hamper your progress career wise, humans are primitive creatures at their core, a useless average guy who everyone knows has gotten laid may get that promotion you wanted because you admitted to being a virgin, despite being a better worker, and the funny part is he may have also been a virgin, but he was smart enough not to admit to it
I have done both and seen the results of both, oh and the last place where I worked and claimed having one GF, I got a promotion a few months in while working there, and negotiated a raise a few months after
YOU DON'T HAVE ANY LEVERAGE IF NO ONE RESPECTS YOU
NO LEVERAGE = NO DEMANDS
If you can't make demands, then you can't move forward in the business or work world
Let me also tell you that all the managers were female, so it probably mattered 10 times as much that I wasn't a known virgin
You guys sound delusional, it has nothing to do with, "Never had a GF, whats it to you"
, do you know how cringy that shit sounds, as if you are trying to do some "turn it back on them" BS, that shit doesn't work anymore because being a virgin is shameful in this era, you aren't in the 1950's
The question isn't "whats it to you", its "whats it to your" financial prospects, business pursuits, social circles, etc
