Yeah, so....welcome to the blog of Judith Tewes, young adult contemporary fiction author. Here be edgy stories with a side of snark.

A to Z Challenge and Giveaway: Y is for 40 Year Old Virgin


This month is all about discovering new blogs, meeting new friends, and spreading the word about the launch of my young adult novel, MY SOON-TO-BE SEX LIFE, (Bloomsbury Spark, June 2014) by participating in this mega, 26 posts blog challenge.

Since Charlie, the main character in my novel, is an aspiring screenwriter who has plotted her own devirginization campaign - one that doesn't go as scripted - I thought an appropriate theme for this month would be: an alphabetical romp through the good, the bad, the ugly, and the downright scary representations of virginity in film. Warning - be prepared for adult content / strong language if you follow my posts this month.

Join me over the next 26 days for some swoonworthy and/or cringeworthy cherry popper moments on the big screen. Check out the multitude of amazing A to Z bloggers via the challenge main page, HEREAnd don't forget to enter the GIVEAWAY at the end of this post!

Y is for The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005)

Honestly, all I remember about this movie is laughing my ass off every time Steve Carell swore. Which was a lot. Which is probably why I loved the film. Bonus, this script was co-written by Steve Carell and he probably swore a shitload while cranking up the word count.

The premise: "Goaded by his buddies, a nerdy guy who's never "done the deed" only finds the pressure mounting when he meets a single mother."

Great monologue while riding a bike: "Yeah, well, virgin's not a dirty word. You know what's a dirty word, is asshole, and that's what you guys are. You know, I may not have had sex, but I could fuck you up."

Check out the trailer...
