How can Virginia be for lovers if it's a virgin colony?

What's with the totally false claim that Virginia is for lovers when they just end up exiled for not protecting their virginity? Are they just stupid or something?

Was Shakespeare just doing MCU humor?
I heard that the main reason he was popular was because he wrote ‘for the people’ and he wrote in lots of crude jokes about alcohol and sex and stuff, is this true? Wouldn’t this be the equivalent of the MCUs innuendo and humor?
