Virginity

处女 chǔnǚ (choo nee)

Virgin (female).

处男 chǔnán (choo nahn)

Virgin (male).

黄花闺女 huáng huā guīnǚ (hwahng hwun gway nee)

Virgin (female). Literally “yellow flower girl,” alluding to a fashion during the Song dynasty when girls would decorate their faces with yellow plum flowers. When these flowers were not in bloom, they used yellow paper cutouts instead.

雏 chú (choo)

Dirty and/or insulting Beijing slang for a virgin. Literally “chick” or “young bird.” Before 1949 this was frequently used in brothels to refer to a young prostitute without much experience in entertaining the customers: “chicken” is slang for a prostitute, so a “chick” would be a young prostitute.
