How to use hymen in a sentence?

1. Jennifer Gunter:

   If someone's asking for a hymen check, then what they're saying to you is that it's wrong to have sex before marriage.

2. Ranit Mishori:

   There's this idea that the hymen is this barrier that remains intact until some Prince Charming comes and' opens it' and' pops the cherry,' all of these horrendous ways of addressing the hymen are patently wrong.
