A sin is an offence to God. According to a lot of Christian thinkers, human beings are offensive to god from birth because of the disobedience of Adam and Eve, which God has held against every human being since. No amount of virtuous living could make God forgive us for what our ancestors did.
Others might be inclined to say that human beings have a natural inclination to sin, that is, to do things which are offensive to God. Although people may be born without sin, it is in their nature to sin. This could also be called a sinful nature.

Why is being born through sexual act be considered that the baby is sinned while Jesus who was born of a virgin is sinless Is sex sin?
Firstly, it must be understood that the Bible nowhere teaches that the sexual act is itself sinful. Context determines sin, in this and many other cases. The inherited sinful nature has nothing whatever to do with sex of itself, even if the context of that act was indeed sinful. Jesus sinlessness had to do with His being divine, and to the fact He did not inherit our sinful nature.
