Tuesday Tropes: Virginity

Virginity is a popular theme in fanfiction, often going hand-in-hand with the First Time trope. Steve/Bucky fics are no exception. In fact, there's an ongoing debate within the fandom and even among the cast and creators of the films about whether Steve Rogers is a virgin or not. For example, Chris Evans has stated that he thinks Steve is a virgin, and Hayley Atwell has stated that she thinks he isn't. As a result, there's lots of room for interpretation, and fans have taken advantage both to give Steve a memorable first time with a more experienced Bucky and to flip the trope on its head and make Steve the sexually experienced one and Bucky the virgin.
