Deflowered is the second studio album by American queercore band Pansy Division, released in June 1994 on Lookout! Records.

Contents

Critical reception to the album was generally positive. Despite rating it with a modest score of 3 out of 5 stars, Allmusic praised Deflowered for its "wry, silly and heartfelt" songwriting, singling out singer Jon Ginoli's "engagingly nerdish" vocals and "sweetly enjoyable" harmonizing with bassist Chris Freeman.

The cover features a photograph of Mark Ewert (left) and Moon Trent (right), taken by Marc Gellar. The two men later appeared together on the cover of Pansy Division's 1996 album Wish I'd Taken Pictures and their 2016 album Quite Contrary.
