I'm already more than 2/3rds of the way to being a 40 year old virgin.
Never been kissed either.

There's only one person who can change that. Protip; it's you.

Good grief, when did you become so insensitive?
I'm insensitive to people choosing to fail and blaming the world for the choice. Which isn't to say that they are entirely aware of it, not at all, but to say that you, a first world citizen who is not crippled or physically incapable of doing anything, has no future, is a choice, not a circumstance, unless one were to be forcing you into that state, in which case that's no longer a complaint, but cause for a 911 call.
I used to choose to fail and have no future. I used to be forced to have no future. I've been on every spectrum, and in the end it comes down to the individual to make a future for themselves. No one is doomed to no future, unless they give up and accept that as their fate.
A self-fulfilling prophecy, really. I've demonstrated several times on this forum that if someone is asking for help on how to build their future, that I step ahead with a long story and a bunch of ideas and questions. I love to help people make a future possible. I do not love to simply pat people on the back when they choose to mope in their decision that they are either consciously making or unconsciously making but are too afraid or stubborn to consider an alternative to the opinion.
I'm not a terrible man, Plut. But a future is truly only bleak if one wishes for it to be. It's okay to be sad, to be down on your luck, to be mad at the world... All these things are okay. What isn't okay is letting these things control you, your actions, and, well, your future.
I reiterate that a future is only nonexistent if one chooses for it to be or is forced upon them. I provide no insult to anyone. I have lived these fates and have had the luxury to fight my way out of the rut, and I genuinely consider myself to be qualified to have an opinion on it that can be listened to by people like that because of my experience. I may be young but I have certainly not lived a life of a youngling.

Isaac Newton died a virgin yo. Nothing to be ashamed of.
Rant: It's frustratingly difficult to find stock photos of mixed-race couples.

There's one thing you can do to stop that: Ask a girl out, and make sure you actually do it instead of pussying out.
He who hesitates, masturbates.

I'm so lucky I'm gay. Guys are so easy to seduce.
@ PE - Just force yourself to ask out women. Eventually it'll become easier. Maybe try dating online or something.

This bizarre Steam chat with one of my friends (copied and pasted verbatim, but removed names):
My Friend: Do you believe in God?
Me: I'm agnostic.
My Friend: What's agnostic?
Me: Hold on a sec
Me: http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnostic
Me: Agnosticism is the philosophical view that it is unknown (or even, unknowable) whether any deities (god or gods) exist or not. Some people who call themselves "agnostic" say that it is not possible for anyone ever to know if there are any deities or not. Other agnostics, though, say only that they themselves currently do not know if there are any deities.
My Friend: Hmmm.
My Friend: At least you're not an atheist.
Me: ??? What's wrong with being an atheist.
Let's just say it went downhill from there. It was incredibly strange and confusing.

I did sign up for a few of those sites after I first joined the internet in '04, but didn't really do much to send out messages, which I will freely admit was totally my fault, being naive and overly picky, which is of course, a nono in the mate selection process.
Of course, my overt sexuality (which I seem to be notorious for among the old-timers here) didn't help much, and neither did my constant whinging about the global omnipresence of prudes.
But hey, masturbation keeps me content for now, as by the looks of things, I'm not missing out much.

Then stop complaining about it.

Horny gay men in a gay bar, or other guys? (this is a serious question). Although it may be that it's easier to seduce guys because you're gay. Eh?
I assume that's where the right to arm bears comes from.

Spoiler :
I've seen that in a Hospital Ward toilet. It didn't make me laugh at the time.
But perhaps the timing wasn't right. Or something.

At thirty I was dead broke, a chronic gambler and drug taker going absolutely nowhere. You would be surprised how much you can achieve in a month if you dedicate yourself to it, let alone in the countless years you have ahead.

Half-true;
Men are easier to seduce, but I wouldn't do him myself as I know I'd do better. Men don't have lower standards, but they have lower inhibitions; in a gay bar, most people know their level and how to work with it somewhat well to get laid if they want to - which they almost always do. But standards do still exist, however.
Ugly girls aren't particularly easier to bang, you know. Once you've crossed that threshold to know how to bang girls, there's surprisingly little difference from getting the ugly ones to getting the pretty ones, and that mostly depends on your own looks anyways.
