Line #13 PlayingWith/VirginVision


1	'''Basic Trope''': The ability to divine merely by looking at someone that they've recently lost their virginity, despite there being no obvious sign of such.
2	* '''Straight''': Alice has recently gotten together with Bob for the first time. Upon seeing her the following morning, her friend Cassie immediately realizes what happened.
3	* '''Exaggerated''': ''Everyone'' can judge whether or not someone is still a virgin simply by looking at them.
4	* '''Downplayed''': "Alice, do you have... I dunno, a new haircut or something? You seem different."
5	* '''Justified''':
6	** As Alice's close friend, Cassie is familiar with her regular behavior, and has been privy to her recent relationship woes. Although Alice doesn't realize it, she is giving off very subtle cues that only somebody extremely familiar with her ways might be able to pick up on.
7	** Cassie is good at pulling a SherlockScan.
8	* '''Inverted''': Cassie, despite the very obvious signs, still thinks that Alice is a virgin. Such as treating her for [=STD=]s.
9	* '''Subverted''': After being with Bob, Alice worries that Cassie will immediately ''know'' she's no longer a virgin, despite her attempts to hide any obvious clues... but Cassie greets her normally and shows no sign of even suspecting.
10	** Cassie only knew because Alice didn't take a shower yet and she could smell the aftermath. She congraluates Alice but advices her to clean up.
11	* '''Double Subverted''': ...And then, as they sit down for a leisurely chat, Cassie casually asks what it was like.
12	* '''Parodied''': VirginVision is a literal [[SuperpowerLottery superpower]], and the Amazing Virtecto regularly gets a lot of calls from paranoid parents just wanting to make sure their kids haven't done something stupid...
13	** Old unicorns are incapable of seeing people who aren't virgins.
14	* '''Zig Zagged''': Cassie has this ability but doesn't fully trust it. She thinks that Seamus must be spoofing it because [[NerdsAreVirgins he is such an ugly nerd and it indicates he has had tons of sex]]. [[KavorkaMan He is not and is skilled enough that an awkward nerdy date is well worth the ending.]] Denise can smell pheromones' which let h.
15	* '''Averted''': Nobody can tell Alice lost her virginity without being told.
16	* '''Enforced''': Despite being adapted from a work with a sex scene the ratings prevent them from anything more explicit.
17	* '''Lampshaded''': "How can you just ''tell'', Cassie? That's super creepy!"
18	* '''Invoked''': Cassie makes an educated guess about Alice's status in hopes of tricking her into [[YouJustToldMe accidentally blurting out the truth]].
19	* '''Exploited''': ???
20	* '''Implied''': Cassie scoffs at the result of a sexual activity survey of the dorm as "totally inaccurate".
21	* '''Defied''': Witches are not only immune to detection effects but block out all within a sizable radius proportionate to her power. All readings will only return "None of your damn business" unless targeting yourself in which case it gives [[PetTheDog an encouraging message regardless of status.]]
22	* '''Discussed''': "It seemed like Cassie just knew from looking at me that we'd had sex, but it turned out Bob told her."
23	* '''Conversed''': ???
24	* '''Played For Laughs''': Cassie can derive absurdly specific information in how far they've gone. "Alice has never been kissed by anyone romantically but [[AccidentalPervert Bob]] did accidentally grope her left breast in the dark while wearing wool gloves over his prosthetic hand one year, three months, two weeks, five hours, twenty minutes and twelve seconds ago."
25	* '''Played For Drama''': Alice's mother doesn't approve of her relationship with Bob. When she meets with her daughter afterward, she immediately ''knows'', and fixes her with a DeathGlare.
26	* '''Played For Horror''': [[CorruptChurch The Church of Justice]] gains this ability after seizing power in a coup and brutally kill all who are not virgins for 'approved' reasons. Not only are [[VictimBlaming rape victms held at fault]] but [[WouldHurtAChild even molested children aren't safe.]]
