All the world's major religions (and many of the minor ones) require women be virgins before marriage.

Yes in Islam it is a must for a woman to be a virgin before marraige not only woman but man too but in the case that if a women is married and has a child later in life and then she becomes a widow then too she can marry.This is in my religion Islam.

Interesting that you focus on women. Most religions that ask the woman to be a virgin also put the same restrictions on the man.

Christianity, to me. I think God meant sex for after marriage, something precious. Bet some of you are asking "What if she's married before?"
If it's in the case of divorce, God didn't mean for that to happen, either, but, yeah, sometimes it does.
