"I'm a virgin. Do I need to disclose that to him?"

Before we begin the ninth installment of C.U. in Bed, we’d like to remind you to submit your questions to this Google form. Don’t worry, it’s all anonymous.

In this installment of C.U. in Bed, a reader faces a moral dilemma in whether or not to tell her first potential partner that she's never had sex before. A second reader wonders if oral sex can ever be pleasant, or if she's doomed to never like it.

Dear Andrea,

I'm a woman, and a virgin. I wish I was more secure, but I'm embarrassed about it and keep it a secret. I think I'm going to have sex soon. Would it be wrong not to tell the guy before it happens? When and how would I even tell him without making things awkward? Do I have a responsibility to let this other person know, even though I don't consider the "first time" to be all that significant, and would rather not draw attention to it?
