“It’s ironic that pregnant women can only order virgin drinks”

“Virgin” drinks have no alcohol. Pregnant women are told not to drink alcohol during the pregnancy, so these women (not virgins) often consume “virgin” drinks. Many people find this to be ironic.

Being pregnant means having to order “virgin” drinks. Am I the only one who giggles at this?
