Description

A groundbreaking and very personal insight into modern sexuality. Losing our virginity – it happens to all of us. How did it happen for you? What do other people think and feel about it? In February 2007, Kate Monro went on a mission to find out. She decided to ask as many people as possible – how did you lose your virginity? Men and women, old and young, gay, straight, Christian and Muslim; the stories range from the funny and the sad to the happy and occasionally, the unbelievable. Thus was born her much reviewed blog, The Virginity Project, and now this book. How do we define the loss of our virginity? What, if any, impact does the first time have on the rest of our lives? And in some cases how do we know for sure when that moment has occurred? After all sorts of conversations with all sorts of people, Kate will reveal the truth about other people s most intimate sexual stories. She also discovers that the answers are not always as straightforward as you might think.

Kate Monro picks up where Nancy Friday left off with wit and wisdom …’ Em & Lo, EMandLO.com

Kate Monro was born the daughter of a diplomat on a farm in Yorkshire. An unremarkable education preceded a career that has taken in spells with the rock band Blur, with publishing mavericks Dazed & Confused, experiential agency Cunning and more recently creative agency RKCR Y&R. Whilst feeling that she had achieved her ambition to work for companies with odd names, it wasn t until she completed a copy writing course, that she discovered a love of words and editing text.

A light bulb moment on El Matador beach followed and as a result, she set out to ask men and women to reveal their most intimate truth – their virginity loss stories. The response was overwhelming and the result is a groundbreaking and very personal insight into the beating heart of modern sexuality.

An enthusiastic and articulate speaker on her subject she has also caught the media s attention via her blog, The Virginity Project . Writing about her unusual journey as she interviews strangers about their sex lives, she is regularly asked to contribute on virginity related issues in the media. As a result, The Virginity Project blog now receives virginity loss stories from all over the world.

Losing It: How we popped our cherry over the last 80 years is Kate Monro s first book. Upon completion, she plans to take herself and her interviewing skills to the USA in a bid to meet Americans everywhere and ask them the question, So, how did you lose yours?

In October 2011, the book became a play at The Tristan Bates Theatre in London s Covent Garden.
