I heard it has something to do with when a woman loses her virginity. True?

I thought it was done with after 2001, but knowing religion, it'll go on forever.

Rapture,
Definition: The belief that faithful Christians will be bodily caught up from the earth, suddenly taken out of the world, to be united with the Lord “in the air.” The word “rapture” is understood by some persons, but not by all, to be the meaning of 1Â Thessalonians 4:17. The word “rapture” does not occur in the inspired Scriptures.

False. The rapture in the bible has to do with the overcoming believers who are still alive at the time of Christ's second coming, being taken up alive. They will thus not experience death.
If you are talking about the word rape, that is to do with forced sex without the other person's consent.

Maybe you're talking about 'Rape'. It's when someone forces sexual intercourse onto someone else.
