It's When you buy a brand-new laptop and plug a USB device into one of the USB ports and it goes in really tight. +Nik Louch, Matthew S. and Elliot B. 3 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1399148-have-you-ever-used-the-term-virgin-usb-port/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

margrave Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 First I've every heard of this term. Now I fear I will use this unknowingly. I hope it doesn't slip out in conversation at work. Ugh.

Depend on how old/used the device is you are plugging in as well. Not just the port itself. A used usb cable/drive tends to have wear patterns over time. +Warwagon 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1399148-have-you-ever-used-the-term-virgin-usb-port/#findComment-598575267 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick H. Supervisor Posted August 20, 2020 Supervisor Share Posted August 20, 2020 Nope. Not once. Never even heard of it before this poll. Never even considered the idea that a USB port hasn't been used before.

+Nik Louch Subscriber² Posted August 20, 2020 Subscriber² Share Posted August 20, 2020 The presumption that the flexibility of a woman's genitals is related to her sexual activity is also incorrect.

+Warwagon MVC Posted August 20, 2020 Author MVC Share Posted August 20, 2020 Adjective 2) Not yet, touched, used or exploited. The only thing that gives it away, is because it's hard to plug a USB device into the port due to the tight fit.

In this context ( ' goes in really tight' ) there are clear sexual connotations regarding the female and her anatomy, what with ports being referred to as either male or female. Virgin has contemporarily referred to a complete absence of sexual activity. e.g. Do you call unused flash drives virgins ? No ?

What's going to be really funny is when you come across a brand-new computer and plug in a flash drive into its port for the first time and think of this thread 😄 ... you'll be like...Well.... As far as getting creeped out by the phrase. I guess I don't get creeped out by much. 10 minutes ago, waysidesc said: In this context there are clear sexual connotations, especially regarding the female and her anatomy, what with ports being referred to as either male or female. Virgin has contemporarily referred to a complete absence of sexual activity. e.g. Do you call unused flash drives virgins ? No ? True, but the usb on a flash drive is the male end and the port is the female, and the fact of the matter is the female port is the tight one. It's just the way it is. Do I call the Male virgin, no, the only thing that brings to my attention it's never been used before is usb devices goes in tight into the port. otherwise I probably wouldn't even notice.
