Contrast GladToBeAliveSex. For those who weren't virgins but still do it anyway, see PreClimaxClimax.

* On the off chance that [[ShamanKing Yoh]] gets killed in the Shaman tournament, Anna ''asks'' him to have sex with her the night before his next fight. [[spoiler:In one of his rare serious moments, Yoh agrees.]]

See NowOrNeverKiss for a PG version. Can lead to an infuriatingly ambiguous [=~Did They or Didn't They~=] moment. And no, this trope does not only apply to characters who are virgins (though that does add [[NatureAbhorsAVirgin an]] [[AManIsNotAVirgin additional]] [[YouNeedToGetLaid sense of urgency.]])

[[folder:Web Comics]]
* On ''Webcomic/OrderOfTheStick'', Haley elects to spend the night before the Battle of Azure City with Elan.
* In ''SluggyFreelance'' Lord Grater stops himself and Princess-Princess from escaping a [[EarthShatteringKaboom Universe Shattering Kaboom]] in order to [[http://www.sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/20010826 invoke this trope]].

* In a ''CyanideAndHappiness'' [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/1052/ strip]]:

* ''OnePiece'' In episode 202 Nami, while being part of a fake hostage plot to escape a Marine fortress, is screaming, that she want's to get married before she dies, which sounds much of a tinily veiled reference to the trope.

** The game also implies that Morrigan is a virgin at the start of the game, but most of that relationship is covered by [[MateOrDie different]] [[StalkerWithATestTube tropes]].

* In [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdyI-KP2E9s this scene]] from ''YuyuHakusho'', Dark Tournament referee Juri says it in reference to herself.

* A variation in the AfterTheEnd movie ''Testament'', played as a pure TearJerker: A girl dying of radiation poisoning asks her ''mother'' what it's like to make love, since she knows she won't live long enough to find out for herself.

* In Michelle Magorian's ''A Little Love Song''/''Not a Swan'', set in 1943, Derry convinces Rose to have sex with him before he goes to war, invoking this trope. It isn't until after he has left town that Rose finds out that [[spoiler:Derry wasn't even allowed to join the army and tricked her into having sex with him to boost his ego.]]

* Thoroughly [[{{Deconstruction}} deconstructed]] in ''{{Bokurano}}'', where [[DoggedNiceGuy Kaku]], upon learning of his impending death via HumongousMecha piloting, tries to lose his virginity by [[AttemptedRape attempting]] to [[RapeAsDrama rape]] his crush, Chizuru. [[spoiler: Not only Chizuru was a sexual abuse victim ''who was pregnant due to it'' (the circumstances change depending of which continuity you're following) but she actually ends up killing him.]]
* The pervert hero in ''GSMikami'' constantly try to hug/kiss a nearby female whenever the situation turns bad, saying things to the effect of this.

* Bella in ''[[Twilight The Twilight Saga]]'' doesn't plan on ''dying'' exactly, but she wants to experience sex with Edward before she ceases being a human.

* Happens in ''TheWalkingDead'' with Glenn and Maggie, although they pursue a serious relationship soon after.

* ''{{Supernatural}}'''s Dean Winchester [[UnusualEuphemism cuts himself a slice of angel food cake]] on the eve of a battle that he expects to lose.

** Of course, to avoid the story from getting too inappropriate, J.K. sent it Ron the cockblocker and overprotective brother of Ginny.

* Implied and avoided in ''{{Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows}}''. At the beginning of the book, before Harry goes off to attempt to defeat Voldemort, [[Radar/HarryPotter Ginny says she wants to give Harry something]] and "she kissed him like he had never been kissed before, and he kissed her back" which many fans to mean [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar something that was deff not kissing]].

** One of the two other Grey Warden candidates from the PlayerCharacter's joining can be found (unsuccessfully) trying this at Ostagar, telling a female soldier [[FunnyAneurysmMoment they could all be dead by tomorrow]]. (In his defense, it might not have been so unsuccessful if he had not used such graphic terms. ''To describe the killing''.)

[[caption-width-right:350: Everyone looks better in soft, warm light anyways.]]

->"If there's a [[WorldWarII war]], I'll sleep with you before you get killed... ''(scoff)'' that's what maidens do in books, and I'm a maiden!"

[[folder:Anime & Manga]]

* The two main leads do this on screen (nothing explicit is shown though) in an apocalyptic vision in the penultimate episode of ''[[{{ptitle1bf9legmpo9v}} 11eyes]]''.

* In FullmetalAlchemist (both animé series and the manga), Al states, that he would have a girlfriend before dying, because he was afraid of that happening, when they would meet [[BadassTeacher their old Alchemy teacher]] and she would find out, how they tried human alchemy (Trying to bring back the dead, which costs body parts or a philosopher's stone in TheVerse and is strictly forbidden) and joined the military.
* In ThreeByThreeEyes, [[spoiler: Yakumo and Parvati have sex before she leaves for the humanization ritual.]]

* TropeNamer: Alicia Casse's boyfriend from ''IndependenceDay'' tries to talk her into losing her virginity, seeing as the world is probably going to be destroyed by aliens, and quotes the trope name verbatim.
** Foiled by Alicia's Big Damn Brother interrupting and taking her home.
** Given a slightly touching revisit in a deleted scene, where Alicia says the same thing to a boy in the underground bunker, and he replies that if they don't make it, they'll ''both'' die virgins, but at least they'll die together.

* Intentionally invoked and set to music in ''{{Grease}} 2'', with the song "Let's Do It For Our Country". One of the guys brings his girlfriend down to the bomb shelter, where a confederate sounds the bomb siren to make her think it's TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt. Cue musical number. Unfortunately, she misses the point and thinks he's singing about joining the army, and when the siren stops, she rushes out of the shelter only to find his buddies listening at the door.
* This is also played with in ''{{Airplane}} II: The Sequel'' where the supposed virgin has a long line waiting for her as she repeats this to every guy on the plane. For extra RuleOfFunny, the line also includes [[ButYouScrewOneGoat a donkey]], and in the next scene, they're [[SmokingHotSex smoking together]].

* In ''WorldWarZ'', a former security guard tells about the time he guarded a group of rich and famous celebrities who had barricaded themselves in a sort of fortress on Long Island to avoid zombie attacks. In a hubristic move, they also broadcast videos of themselves locked away, watching the carnage unfold. The fortress is soon stormed -- not by zombies, but by furious regular people. As the guard manages to escape, he witnesses two people he thought were supposed to be political enemies (implied to be [[spoiler: * shudder* [[RealTimeWithBillMaher Bill Maher]]]] and [[spoiler:Ann Coulter]]) "going at it" like there was no tomorrow. Well, for them, there wasn't.
** [[spoiler:It could also have been JonStewart]].

* Invoked, though they're not virgins, in the ''XWingSeries''. Mirax and Corran, after growing closer together, have a last exchange before he goes on a dangerous mission, and he says he might not come back. Mirax archly tells him that if he's looking to use a Tomorrow We May Die line to get her to bed him, it's a little late for that, and he should have used it last night.

* A very memorable ButIWouldReallyEnjoyIt moment in ''[[TheSwordOfTruth Wizard's First Rule]]''.

* Referenced for laughs in the first episode of ''NoOrdinaryFamily''; on a plane experiencing engine failures during a storm, the teenage daughter of the titular family wails that she's going to die, "and I haven't even done it yet!" With both her parents in earshot. They look... unsure how to respond to or feel about this.

** [[{{Squick}} EW]]
** A. D. Hope, in his poem "[[http://wonderingminstrels.blogspot.com/2004/11/his-coy-mistress-to-mr-marvell-d-hope.html His Coy Mistress to Mr. Marvell]]," serves him a blistering (and hilarious) retort:

* In the [[TheBible book of Judges]], Jephthah must give his daughter over to the Tabernacle as the result of a promise to God GoneHorriblyWrong, meaning that she will never marry. As a compromise, he allows his daughter two months to go up and down the mountains bewailing her virginity. (NOTE: This was NOT a human sacrifice. The "burnt offering" mentioned is to accompany the turning over of a person to the Tabernacle sanctuary, it does not refer to the actual person being given. Jephthah expected a servant to come out first, not an animal.)
** Well, the mainstream opinion is (and has been, basically since they started keeping track) that Jephthah's daughter WAS a human sacrifice. The matter is still up for debate, as the text is quite ambiguous, but at the very least later retellings of the story like the Carissimi oratorio are all based on the idea that she was killed.

* One of the non-canon endings to ''RedVsBlue'' has Tucker try this on Sister, who's more than eager to get to it. Until Grif kills Tucker.
** [[spoiler: Tucker tells Grif in Revelations that "I fucked your sister." Normally, one would take this as an empty taunt, but this is [[ReallyGetsAround Sister]] we're talking about...]]
