not quite vestal virgins, virgin men in romance
Unsullied. Undefiled. Uninitiated. Untouched. Chaste. Pure. While the tired trope of virginal and inexperienced women abounds, particularly in historical romance but even in contemporary works, virginal men are much less common. With stories that can be refreshing and joyful, or not (lol), this list brings together heroes who’ve done little more than kiss. (Some of them haven’t even done that.) All romance sub-genres are included, except YA.
