Since we all know that [[AManIsNotAVirgin there are no male virgins]] and that [[LonersAreFreaks loners are freaks,]] this movie surprised many by portraying the title character, a virginal and nerdy (he collects action figures and comics) introvert, not as some kind of loser or freak but as a likeable fellow who's simply chosen not to have sex after a short series of rejections in his youth. Since it dresses in the skin of a SexComedy, it's also refreshing to see the subject of sex summed up as "a nice thing to have, but meaningless without love," as seen in Andy's well-meaning but dim-witted friends, who all lead active sex lives but are probably less happy than Andy because their romantic relationships are unfulfilling.

Due to massive misuse zero context examples and questionable examples for this trope are being purged.This deals with cases where a character is visibly old and is still portrayed as attractive. If this examples fits the trope then re-add with context making those two points explicitly clear. Do not confuse this trope for Hollywood Old, Older Than They Look, or Really Seven Hundred Years Old. Do not use this trope for personal or fan\'s opinions about a character\'s attractiveness.

'''''The 40-Year-Old-Virgin''''' is a 2005 [[ComedyTropes comedy]] film starring SteveCarell, and the first film to put director Creator/JuddApatow on the map (after television stints with ''FreaksAndGeeks'' and ''{{Undeclared}}''). It is the story of Andy Stitzer, a 40-year-old man who, due to a series of unfortunate mishaps all throughout his youth, never experienced sexual intercourse during his formative years and has lost interest in his adulthood. One night, while playing cards with his friends from the electronics store where they all work, Andy inadvertently reveals that he's a virgin; this initially results in the expected chummy jeers, but shortly thereafter his friends, Cal, Jay, and David, decide to help him lose his virginity. Eventually, Andy meets a nice woman named Trish with whom he shares a genuine emotional connection, and though he's nervous about telling her the truth about his virginity and the subject of sex in general, he must learn to overcome his insecurities to discover both sex and romance.
