The hymen (or maidenhead) is a ring of tissue around the vaginal orifice. The term comes from a Greek word meaning "membrane". Although many people believe that the hymen completely occludes the vaginal orifice in human females, this is quite rare. The hymen has great symbolic significance as an indicator of a woman's virginity. Lately, the very concept of a hymen has been criticized and even its existence questioned by researchers who consider it to be based more on cultural perceptions and sexual stereotypes than physiological facts.
