Anyway, the guys starts saying that if a woman's been raped, if she's been hurt like that, if a man's taken her dignity? All she has to do to take her power back, to erase it all is to say to herself and everyone else that it never happened, that's she's still a virgin.

Ummm, yeah. And if he was ever raped and had someone forced on him and had to endure the shame, humiliation, violation, assault, etc., I'm so sure he'd just magically forget about it and act like it never happened. GMAB! That's called denial and delusion, not the makings of a mentally sound person.
I think this is the very worst advice anyone can give, and it is clear that this guy doesn't know what he is talking about. And what if she is not a virgin when it happens?? Oh, wait, here it is...

So, I'm still sitting there hang-dogged watching the blonde on the tv sit in her chair looking all ashmed of herself when I hear the guy say that if a woman's made the wrong choices, fallen in with the wrong man, made "mistakes" of a sexual nature? Well, boy howdy! She can take it all back, erase it all by saying she's still a virgin!!!

What is up with this guy's fixation on virginity? And what about all the concern for guys who are no longer virgins?? Why isn't he trying to protect THEIR virginity??? Anyone who makes a woman feel ashamed for her sexuality has some serious issues, IMO. And if they are making women feel ashamed but not men, they are hypocrites, to boot.
I haven't pretended to be a virgin since I was a teenager and worried that if I said I already did it, the guy I was with would think I was too easy!! LOL!!!! (I didn't fool him, anyway). I'm certainly not going to feel ashamed and try to revirginize (is that a word?) myself after all these years!!
In my opinion the guy sounds like a total idiot. Not to mention dangerous to those who have been violated. He sounds like a charismatic leader, but there are all sorts of charismatic leaders who are/were menaces to society.
