This section discusses the findings obtained from the comparison of the definitions of

virginity and hymen from the perspective of Hanu students. The findings indicate that
the majority of students clearly distinguish between hymen and virginity. It suggests
that differences in factors such as gender or sociocultural background may affect the
judgments of students in this research sample.

The majority of respondents, regardless of age, background, and place of residence,

commented that the hymen is a thin biological membrane in the female genitals and is
easily torn not only during sexual intercourse but also during other activities such as
sports.

“The hymen is a thin membrane that partially covers the opening of the vagina. It is a
part of the female genitalia and varies in shape and thickness among individuals...”
Đ - Nam
Our comprehensive quantitative analysis has delved deep into the complex nature of
the concept of virginity, revealing that it encompasses multiple dimensions that are far
more intricate than the commonly held notion solely linked to the presence or absence
of the hymen. In our study,the participants could diligently categorized into three
primary groups with different aspects of virginity: "first time having sex", "state of
not having sex" and "virginity and fidelity of a girl".

“Virginity is a concept that refers to the value of a person who has never had sex, or
the fidelity of a person to another person”
A - nữ
“The first time someone have sex”
N - nam

The findings of our study indicate that a majority of the student participants possess a
clear understanding of the concept of virginity in general, as well as the distinction
between the physiological marker of the hymen and the broader concept of virginity.
However, it is important to note that a small subset of students exhibited there was no
differentiation between the two defination, or, in cases where a distinction was
acknowledged, their perspective on the definitions of hymen and virginity differ from
the majority understanding.

“Hymen is built based on love and trust, which is not related to virginity”
L - female

“I think they're the same thing biologically. But in society, hymen is more of a
medical term while virginity represents whether you have ever sex”
A - Non-binary

Within this subset, there appeared to be a degree of confusion or misinterpretation

surrounding the difference between the hymen and virginity. This lack of clarity may
be attributed to a variety of factors, including cultural or religious beliefs, or a lack of
comprehensive sex education.

#### Findings from the Comparison of Definitions of Virginity and Hymen

The aim of this study was to investigate the perceptions of Hanu students regarding
the definitions of virginity and the hymen. The findings reveal that the majority of
students possess a clear understanding of the distinction between these two concepts.
However, it is important to note that there is a subset of students who either do not
differentiate between the two definitions or hold perspectives that differ from the
majority understanding.

**Understanding of the Hymen:**

Regardless of age, background, or place of residence, most respondents described the

hymen as a thin biological membrane located in the female genitalia. They
acknowledged that this membrane can be easily torn not only during sexual
intercourse but also during other activities such as sports. Their descriptions align
with the widely accepted medical definition of the hymen, which is a thin membrane
that partially covers the opening of the vagina and varies in shape and thickness
among individuals.

**Understanding of Virginity:**

The quantitative analysis conducted in this study delved deep into the complex nature
of the concept of virginity, revealing that it encompasses multiple dimensions beyond
the commonly held notion solely linked to the presence or absence of the hymen.
Participants were categorized into three primary groups, each with different aspects of
virginity: "first time having sex," "state of not having sex," and "virginity and fidelity
of a girl."

The majority of respondents defined virginity as a concept that refers to a person who
has never engaged in sexual intercourse or as a measure of fidelity between
individuals. These definitions highlight the value placed on sexual experience and
faithfulness within relationships. Interestingly, some participants also associated
virginity with notions of love and trust, perceiving it as a quality built upon these
foundations.

**Subset with Confusion or Misinterpretation:**

However, within a small subset of students, there appeared to be confusion or

misinterpretation regarding the difference between the hymen and virginity. This lack
of clarity could be attributed to various factors, including cultural or religious beliefs,
or a limited exposure to comprehensive sex education.

For instance, one participant expressed the belief that the hymen is not related to
virginity, emphasizing that it is built based on love and trust, rather than being a
physiological marker of a person's sexual history. Another participant, identifying as
non-binary, acknowledged the biological similarity between the hymen and virginity
but recognized that in society, the term "hymen" is more commonly associated with
medical terminology, while "virginity" represents whether an individual has ever
engaged in sexual activity.

**Implications of the Findings:**

These findings highlight the need for further research and education regarding the
definitions of virginity and the hymen, particularly among individuals who exhibit
confusion or hold differing perspectives. It is essential to address cultural and
religious influences while providing comprehensive sex education that encompasses
the various dimensions of virginity beyond the physical presence of the hymen.

By expanding our understanding of virginity to include broader aspects such as

emotional connections, trust, and fidelity, we can foster a more inclusive and
informed dialogue surrounding this concept. Moreover, promoting accurate
information about the hymen and dispelling misconceptions can contribute to a
healthier understanding of female sexuality and counter harmful myths and
stereotypes.

In conclusion, the majority of Hanu students in this study demonstrated a clear

distinction between the definitions of virginity and the hymen. However, a subset of
students exhibited confusion or misinterpretation, which calls for further research and
education to address these misconceptions and promote a comprehensive
understanding of these concepts.

Certainly! Based on the data results you provided, here's a discussion of the findings
from your interviews that addresses the difference between hymen and virginity:

#### Discussion of Findings

The aim of this study was to explore the perceptions and understanding of virginity
and the hymen among the participants. Two key questions were posed: (1) How
would you define virginity? and (2) Can you identify the difference between hymen
and virginity? The responses obtained shed light on the participants' perspectives and
provided valuable insights into their understanding of these concepts.

**Definition of Virginity:**

When asked to define virginity, the participants offered differing viewpoints. One
participant stated, "Virginity is a concept that refers to the value of a person who has
never had sex, or the fidelity of a person to another person." This definition
encompasses both the absence of sexual experience and the notion of faithfulness
within a relationship.

Another participant's response was more concise, describing virginity as "The first
time someone has sex." This definition focuses specifically on the initial sexual
encounter and highlights the significance of that moment in relation to a person's
virginity.

These divergent definitions highlight the multifaceted nature of the concept of

virginity, which can be influenced by cultural, societal, and personal beliefs.

**Difference Between Hymen and Virginity:**

Regarding the difference between the hymen and virginity, the participants' responses
provided further insights. One participant described the hymen as "a thin membrane
that partially covers the opening of the vagina. It is a part of the female genitalia and
varies in shape and thickness among individuals." This description aligns with the
widely accepted medical understanding of the hymen and its physical characteristics.

However, it is important to note that none of the participants explicitly addressed the
difference between the hymen and virginity in their responses. This indicates that
some participants may not have a clear differentiation between these two concepts.

The lack of distinction between the hymen and virginity in the participants' responses
may be attributed to various factors, such as a limited understanding of the
physiological aspects of the hymen, cultural or religious beliefs, or a lack of
comprehensive sex education.

**Implications and Recommendations:**

The findings of this study suggest that there is a need for further education and
awareness to differentiate between the concepts of hymen and virginity. It is crucial to
provide individuals with accurate information regarding the physiological aspects of
the hymen, as well as the broader dimensions of virginity beyond the mere presence
or absence of the hymen.

By promoting comprehensive sex education that encompasses discussions on consent,

emotional connections, and various cultural perspectives on virginity, we can foster a
more informed and inclusive understanding of these concepts.

Moreover, healthcare providers, educators, and parents should engage in open and
honest conversations about sexuality, addressing any misconceptions or confusion
that may arise. By doing so, we can empower individuals to make informed decisions
about their sexual health and relationships.

In conclusion, the findings from the interviews highlight the varied understandings of
virginity and the lack of explicit differentiation between the hymen and virginity
among the participants. These results underscore the importance of comprehensive
sex education to address misconceptions and promote a more nuanced understanding
of these concepts.

Sự khác biệt giữa màng trinh và trinh tiết là:

- Màng trinh là một cấu trúc sinh học, là một lớp màng mỏng bảo vệ âm đạo. Nó có
thể bị rách trong quá trình sinh hoạt tình dục hoặc hoạt động thể thao.

- Trinh tiết là một khái niệm mang tính xã hội và tâm lý, liên quan đến giá trị của sự
trong trắng, chưa có kinh nghiệm tình dục. Nó không nhất thiết phụ thuộc vào sự tồn
tại của màng trinh.

Do đó, màng trinh là một cấu trúc sinh học cụ thể trong cơ thể, trong khi trinh tiết là
một khái niệm rộng hơn mang ý nghĩa xã hội và tâm lý. Chúng có liên quan nhưng
không phải hoàn toàn trùng lắp với nhau.
