Question The First Time

After all these years I am still somewhat under the impression that Natalie wasn't the first girl to lose their virginity. So who do you guys think was? To Whom?

Personally I believe Jo and Eddie before she came to Peekskill.

However, I must add that unlike today's teen shows the writers did make the girls much more wholesome so maybe it was really Natalie in season 9.

Thoughts?

I also buy that Natalie was the first. That was the whole point of the episode.

Realistic? Not sure. I grew up at the same time and I don’t think 100% of girls were virgins until their college years. But on this show, they were.

Nancy and Roger. I suspect they were doing it as early as Season One, but definitely by Season Two, when Natalie made that crack about Nancy being loose. And Nancy was pregnant by Season Eight, so she definitely was having sex before Natalie had sex with Snake.

^---Great point RG, when you bring the Lost Girls into play. Personally, I don't like to think Nancy and Roger were having sex by season 2, but I do believe she and Roger "fell into sin" along the way, lol (not being morality policy, I just thought I'd use that phrase for a laugh, lol).

But if Nancy and Roger weren't doing it, were they really limiting themselves to make-out sessions and skinny-dipping for seven years? That seems like a stretch...

I didn't buy that Natalie was the first. We all know it was Mrs. Garrett

Maybe not for all 7 seasons, but I like to think that Mrs. Garrett's influence had some hold over all her girls, and that Nancy could keep her pants on for at least a couple of seasons.

Nancy couldn't keep her pants on even during the first season!

But we know Nancy also went skinny-dipping with Roger... You don't think she kept her pants on while skinny-dipping, do you?

No, lol, but how do we know they skinny-dipped? I can't recall what dialogue that episode is in. We do know she and Roger came back from Cooper's Rock with poison ivy in season 2*, and that they also came back going steady, lol (which is a good line, but a bit odd, as they seemed completely exclusive in season 1!).

*(while the episode this is referenced in is "Dear Me" from season 3, Jo says she heard that "last year" she and Roger came back with poison ivy, so that occurred off-screen in season 2, lol)

It's in Dear Me, about two minutes in. Zach says they'll go skinny-dipping, and Natalie confirms the group had gone skinny dipping last year, too.

The poison ivy reference confirms, to me, that things definitely got serious between Roger and Nancy by Season Two. And you're right about them being steady in Season One, so maybe Nancy's memory is faulty, or maybe they broke up briefly sometime between Season One and the skinny-dipping/poison ivy/Cooper's Rock camping trip in Season Two.

Oo that's a good point, they could have broken it off briefly; although if they did, it was probably due to parental disapproval. And maybe by season 2, they were a year older and a little bolder, and said "to hell with it" and reunited.

Nancy "Rebel" Olson!
