the best way to summarize sex education in america right now is that most teenage boys think the hymen makes a popping sound when penetrated and most teenage girls don’t know what a hymen is

Alright girls, listen up! Think of your vagina as a tissue box.  That little piece of plastic that keeps shit from falling out?  That is the hymen. It can look like 

or

or any number of thickness/tightness/shapes

IT IS NOT A PLUG.  IT CAN AND DOES STRETCH.  TEARING IS UNNECESSARY AND RATHER UNHELPFUL.

TAKE IT SLOW. MAMA LOVES YOU. STAY SAFE KIDS.

this is a great analogy but remember that not everyone with a hymen is a girl and not all girls have hymens!
