40 Year Old Virgin

The 40 Year Old Virgin
I contributed to my group was the similarities in the scene in the 40 Year Old Virgin where Andy is playing poker with his friends and they find out he’s a virgin and The Breakfast Club where the character of Brian is told he’s a cherry meaning a virgin by John in front of Claire. The two scenes fit together on how it rebels the two characters are virgins and the shame they feel about it. I found it fascinating that although their peers find out their virgins on how they feel more shame that the girls find out. It shows how the typical nerd or dork wants to strive in being a total ladies man. Andy’s friends just see sex as a game and there shouldn’t be anything serious about it. As for Andy he sees it there should be relationship and the connection between the two people. Although both Andy and Brian are different ages by 20 years part it shows how regardless of our age being a virgin is pretty bad for a male. Especially in high school since all teenagers what do to it’s lose their virginity and be accepted by their peers. The Breakfast Club is almost twenty years older than the 40 Year Old Virgin it shows that no matter what time era it is a male is suppose to be promiscuous and women virgins. Men have to be sexually active and if their not their masculinity is questioned.
