Hi! I don't read the bible too often so I don't know where I
can find certain stuff. Can anyone tell me where I can find
stuff about virginity in the bible. For example, where it says
to wait until marriage, why it's important and stuff like that.
Pretty much... anything that has to do with virginity.
thank you!

Ecclesiasticus 42:9 The father waketh for the daughter, when no man knoweth; and the care for her taketh away sleep: when she is young, lest she pass away the flower of her age; and being married, lest she should be hated:
Ecclesiasticus 42:10 In her virginity, lest she should be defiled and gotten with child in her father's house; and having an husband, lest she should misbehave herself; and when she is married, lest she should be barren.
Ecclesiasticus 42:11 Keep a sure watch over a shameless daughter, lest she make thee a laughingstock to thine enemies, and a byword in the city, and a reproach among the people, and make thee ashamed before the multitude.
Hope this is what you are looking for.

If you make it past your sex filled youth without contracting AIDS or any other STD; there may come a day when you wish you had stayed pure for your husband.
Psa 25:7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy lovingkindness remember thou me, for thy goodness’ sake, O LORD.
I did marry a virgin; and we have had 2 children and great sex for 23 years now. I have a soon to be teenage daughter, and I thank God she knows more of the Bible and morality at age 11 than, apparently you do.
It appears that, by your question, you don't have the foggiest idea of right and wrong or where or how to find a husband or what to expect in marriage. I guess marriage is as disposable as the guy last night.

Why don't you just be honest with yourself and the world and go read Playgirl? Why are you even here? So you can make fun of people who love God and would offer you spiritual truth?
I shall eagerly await the ridiculus drivel you pick for a best answer. I'm sure it won't be Noble Angel; they told you the truth.

Son 2:7 Oh, let me warn you, sisters in Jerusalem, by the gazelles, yes, by all the wild deer: Don't excite love, don't stir it up, until the time is ripe--and you're ready. MSG Bible
Speaking of not having sex intil you marry the right person.
Read the book in the Bible Songs of Solomon. It is a beautiful story between two lovers

I can't answer that, but I can do this.......
It isn't easy to be a single mother. It wasn't now, it wasn't then. It is hard for the woman. It's hard for the kid. It's hard for society. Back then chicks didn't have 'equality' and 'College Degrees'. What they had was 'Prostitution' and 'Pan Handling' when they got knocked up and were thrown out by their parents (who weren't thrilled about having to feed and clothe one of you. NOW, THERE'S TWO!!!!).
The bottom line: It should be obvious why they say not to do something in the Bible. Sometimes, we try to make it out to be more than it actually is. Some times parents do, trying to use the praise "Because the Bible says so" where they actually wanted to say "Because I say so!!!". Just keep a level head and don't get all weird an me and you should be fine.

Numbers 31 is very clear about the benefits of being a Gentile virgin

hope this helps
Gen 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
Lev 21:12 Neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him: I am the LORD.
Lev 21:13 And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
Isa 62:5 For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.
Also consider what is said about fornication
Act 15:20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
which was meet.
Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Rom 1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
...Rom 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
1Co 5:1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
