* Downplayed in ''Manga/KaguyaSamaLoveIsWar'' when Miyuki, Mikado and Tsubasa have a boys' talk about women's assets. Both Miyuki and Mikado (who are both virgins) give way TooMuchInformation about their "type" in order to sound sexually experienced after Tsubasa (who is not a virgin) remarks about how much of a ChickMagnet the other two must be. Then Miyuki and Mikado eventually confess about their lack of experience.

* ''Series/{{Arrested Development}}'': Telling Michael he had sex with Starla:
-->'''Gob''': Guess who was just "over her." Don't-I'll tell you, me. I *bleep*ed the business model.
-->'''Voiceover''': Actually, they just made out.
-->'''Gob''': Yeah...she had all sorts of orgasms.

* In a ''Machinima/RedVsBlue'' Valentine's day PSA:
-->'''Grif:''' Valentine's day? The day we celebrate love? And Romance? You know... girls?
-->'''Simmons:''' Ohhh yeah, I celebrate that ''all'' the time with ''all'' kinds of ladies.
-->'''Griff:''' Riiight. Then why didn't you know what I meant?
-->'''Simmons:''' I thought you said Valentine's... Doy?

* ''Manga/ShonanJunaiGumi'': Eikichi and Ryuji claim to have had sex with 100 women each, and when asked when his first time was, Eikichi panics and says it was [[{{Squick}} in 5th grade with a 4th grader]], to one-up the guy asking, who claimed his was in 8th grade.

* [[HornyScientist Miu Iruma]] from ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaV3KillingHarmony'', and to a very ludicrous degree. She tries to portray herself as someone with a lot of sexual experience by being [[CasualKink open about her kinks]], like waxplay and being [[SlutShaming slut-shamed]]. However, it is strongly implied that Miu is actually a virgin herself; she gets defensive when she gets [[VirginShaming virgin-shamed]] ([[HypocriticalHumor even though she does the same on a regular basis]]), accidentally (albeit indirectly) discloses that she has an unlucky love life (much supported by her FriendlessBackground), and gets really nervous when a serious opportunity for sex comes up, like in her Love Suite Event.

* RareFemaleExample: Sae in ''Manga/HidamariSketch'' constantly insists she has had tons of boyfriends and has all kinds of experience which she supposedly uses as inspiration for her writing.

* ''Film/AmericanBeauty'': The 16-year-old [[spoiler:Angela]] isn't the slut she makes herself out to be - in fact, she's a virgin.

* Rascal in ''Film/MemphisBelle'' constantly teases "Virgil the Virgin" while bragging about his own conquests. The novelization reveals that Rascal himself is in fact a virgin (ironically Virgil is not, having slept with a woman the day before the mission).

'''Biff''': You mean - -?\\

* Richie from ''Film/It2017'' is constantly boasting about his non-existent sex life, in between an endless stream of dirty jokes. Also counts as TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior, since he's 13. ''Film/ItChapterTwo'' builds on it, [[spoiler:suggesting it's always been in response to his [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday insecurity about his own sexuality]]]].
* Kevin is introduced in the second part of ''Film/Moonlight2016'' bragging to Chiron about being caught by a teacher having sex with a girl in school. It's never clarified if this event actually happened or if he's lying. This also doubles as HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday, as Kevin spends the rest of the film having UnresolvedSexualTension with Chiron.
* In the car trip to the mountain in ''Film/ColdPrey'', Morten mentions (very unconvincingly) that he has a girlfriend and that they have sex several times a day.
* You Know from ''Film/KeepOffMyGrass'' brags about his incredibly active sex life at every opportunity so women won't think he's desperate and he can get laid for real. It doesn't work.

* {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d in ''Literature/TheBlackMagicianTrilogy'': adolescent StreetUrchin and incipient gang leader Cery is amused to hear teenage nobles bragging about their alleged sexual conquests because most slum boys their age have ''actually'' done the things they're claiming to have done and don't see it as some sort of prize to shout from the rooftops.

* Daniel Radcliffe guests starred in an episode ''Series/{{Extras}}'' as himself - a pathetic version of himself who is desperate to shag anything that moves and to shake off his Harry Potter persona by doing such "adult" things as smoking.

* In an episode of ''Series/QuantumLeap'' the son of the person Sam leapt into was a virgin and his "friends" mocked him for it, but according to [[WordOfGod Word Of Ziggy]] one of them was a virgin too.
%%* Richard Richard from ''Series/{{Bottom}}''.
%%** And Rik from its SpiritualPredecessor, ''Series/TheYoungOnes''.
%%* Bud Bundy from ''Series/MarriedWithChildren''.
%%* Prince Edmund in the first series of ''Series/{{Blackadder}}''.

* Xander's classmate in the ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' episode "Teacher's Pet". We know this because he becomes the prey of a MonsterOfTheWeek that only eats male virgins. He threatens to sue everyone when they figure this out.
** In a later [[SubvertedTrope subversion]] Xander gets an ex-demon girlfriend who always wants to talk about the sex they just had. With everyone with earshot. A subversion because [[TooMuchInformation she gives more details than anyone wants to know.]]
* The Todd from ''Series/{{Scrubs}}'' is known across Sacred Heart and beyond for his high fives and constant sexual innuendo. When finally asked by the Janitor how many times he had sex recently the answer was a shame-filled "Bagel."

* ''Series/{{Arrested Development}}'': Telling Michael he had sex with Starla:
-->'''Gob''': Guess who was just "over her." Don't-I'll tell you, me. I *bleep*ed the business model.
-->'''Voiceover''': Actually, they just made out.
-->'''Gob''': Yeah...she had all sorts of orgasms.
** This is a RunningGag with Gob; he also wants his AccidentalMarriage annulled but can't bring himself to admit that he didn't consummate it. He and his wife then consummate the marriage before he goes before a judge and says that they didn't.
* In the unaired pilot for the TV adaptation of ''ComicBook/GlobalFrequency'', the main female lead is listing her very long list of academic qualifications, all of which she has achieved at a very young age (she's no older than thirty). The male lead makes an offhand joke along the lines of "how'd you find time to have a life?" The female lead, suddenly very touchy, begins insisting that she had a life, ending with a completely out of the blue and not very convincingly delivered declaration that she "had boyfriends," the implication being that she's lying and is probably still a virgin.
%%* [[spoiler: Mini [=McGuinness=]]] from the third generation of ''Series/{{Skins}}''.
%%* Jay from ''Series/TheInbetweeners'' does this all the time.
%%* Itano in ''Sakura Kara no Tegami''.

* In one episode of ''Series/HowIMetYourMother'', we get a flashback to Barney's school days. One of his classmates (probably around twelve years old) brags to Barney that [[BlatantLies he's slept with a hundred girls]]. Barney takes this at face value and retorts that someday, he'll sleep with ''two hundred'' girls. In a rare subversion of this trope, [[TheCasanova he actually does.]] When he calls up the old classmate to gloat, the classmate is quite disturbed and says that Barney needs help.
* Sheldon and Amy from ''Series/TheBigBangTheory'' do this to convince Amy's mother that they are a couple, as she is uninterested in romance or sex [[CharacterizationMarchesOn (at first).]]
** In a later season, Sheldon is forced to work with a colleague he doesn't like. When he discovers that the other guy's work is more advanced than his, he is humiliated. The other guy says it's understandable since Sheldon has a girlfriend to distract him. Sheldon goes along with the assumption, but unfortunately now the colleague wants to hear details...which Sheldon is far too clueless to provide. Hilarity ensues.
** In Season Eight, Amy and Sheldon finally have sex--so in Season Nine, Amy is very, ''very'' willing to bring up the fact that she's now sexually active, even when it has very little to do with the conversation at hand.
* ''Series/ThirtyRock'': Liz says of Jack's career troubles that he's having a tough year: "First William F. Buckley dies, now this? Next stop impotence, right?" In response, he just laughs way too loudly and leaves the room.

* The "Wink Wink, Nudge Nudge" sketch from ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus''. Creator/EricIdle spends most of the duration peppering Creator/TerryJones with knowing sexual innuendo, leading to this final exchange.
-->'''Idle''': I mean, you've done it. You've...slept...with a lady.\\
'''Jones''': Yes?\\
'''Idle''': What's it like?
* David Rose from ''Series/SchittsCreek'' tends to offer up stories of his promiscuous adventures but is usually pretty defensive about it since most of those relationships ended with him getting dumped. His sister Alexis is far more casual about her adventures because she was usually doing the dumping and has nothing to prove.
* Both protagonists of ''Series/TheEndOfTheFuckingWorld'' do this, to different degrees.
** James claims to be sexually experienced when Alyssa asks, but after he finds out she's a virgin, he confesses that he's one, too. Alyssa admits that she'd already figured it out -- it was pretty obvious.
** Alyssa herself never outright claims to be sexually active, but her boldness when it comes to the matter makes it seem like she already knows what she's doing. When she says she's a virgin, James seems genuinely surprised.
* On ''Series/UnbreakableKimmySchmidt'', attention-hungry SpoiledBrat Xanthippe tries to impress her friends by claiming to have slept with an impossibly cool SurferDude. She turns out to have based her description of the guy on a character from ''Literature/TheBabySittersClub''.
* ''Series/RedDwarf'': The Cat is constantly bragging about his good looks and sexual prowess but series XI episode "Can of Worms" confirms that he's never actually had sex due to the lack of female ''felis sapiens''. He finally has sex in that episode with what turns out to be a Vampire [[EmotionEater GELF]] disguised as a ''felis sapiens''. On learning of the deception he insists that it "still counts" as sex.
* ''Series/FreshMeat'': Kingsley dubs himself "The Pussy Man" on the gang's first night out, although at least he only meant it as a throwaway comment to one person, and is suitably embarrassed when Howard shares it with the group later. It turns out [[OfCourseImNotAVirgin he's a virgin]].

* Joe in ''Webcomic/DumbingOfAge'' is constantly talking about his amazing sex life, despite the fact we never see a female character react to him with anything other than contempt. He eventually admits to Danny "I have never actually had a threesome. I just talk a good game."

* [[SmallNameBigEgo Danny Sexbang]] of Music/NinjaSexParty. If his name didn't give it away, about half of their songs use this trope to some degree or another.

* Master Shake from ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'' likes to portray himself as a ladies'... shake, although it is repeatedly [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by someone (usually Frylock) pointing out that he doesn't even have genitalia or any knowledge of how sex even ''works.'' Indeed, Frylock and Meatwad have both had (whether implied or explicit) more successful sexual encounters than him.

* [[HornyScientist Miu Iruma]] from ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaV3KillingHarmony'', and to a very ludicrous degree. She tries to portray herself as someone with a lot of sexual experience by being [[CasualKink open about her kinks]], like waxplay and being [[SlutShaming slut-shamed]]. However, it is strongly implied that Miu is actually a virgin herself; she gets defensive when she gets [[VirginShaming virgin-shamed]] ([[HypocriticalHumor even though she does the same on a regular basis]]), accidentally (albeit indirectly) discloses that she has an unlucky love life (much supported by her FriendliesBackground), and gets really nervous when a serious opportunity for sex comes up, like in her Love Suite Event.

* Richie from ''Film/It2017'' is constantly boasting about his non-existent sex life, in between an endless stream of dirty jokes. Also counts as TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior, since he's 13.

* Downplayed in ''Manga/KaguyaSamaLoveIsWar'' when Miyuki, Mikado and Tsubasa have a boys' talk about women's assets. Both Miyuki and Mikado (who are both virgins) give way TooMuchInformation about their "type" in order to sound sexually experienced after Tsubasa (who is not a virgin) remarks about how much of a ChickMagnet the other two must be.
