Sweetie,the hymen is a small thin piece of tissue that is over the vaginal opening.It is visible,if you know what you are looking for.However,not all females have a hymen.They can be broken even without sexual intercourse.The hymen can be broken through many activities,including horse back riding.Some females are born without a hymen.Back in the times of the "knights",they used to use the hymen to indicate whether a woman was "pure" or not,but science proved them wrong.The hymen may not be absent even if one is a virgin.Have a safe and blessed new year.

Honestly, society is a little nuts about the whole hymen thing. The truth? Most girls don't even have one. They break soooo easily that a fall, or playing sports, or overzealous use of TP can break it.
The definition of the hymen is this: A membranous fold of tissue that partly or completely occludes the external vaginal orifice
There you go, EXTERNAL...it's at the very opening.
