OMG....lol I can't believe some of the answers i am reading here. I have to admit that most of these answers are very very self-indulgent. I'm not really sure what all of this has to do with what marriage is....what a good marriage is. I was under the assumption that marriage is about respect and having the love for each other to overcome anything.
I don't think that virginity or the lack of it really has that much to do with a marriage at all. Maybe it is important for a partner to know about this beforehand, but after a few years of marriage i really believe that this isn't much of an issue at all. Either way, if two people are compatible then virginity or the lack of it is a good thing. If someone is a virgin then that is something that you are sharing with that person. If they are not a virgin then your experiences are something that you are sharing with that special other one.
The important things for marriage are commitment, trust, and respect for each other.

I think the question might be restated as, "Would you reject someone you care about intensely enough to marry because they weren't a virgin?" Except possibly for religious reasons, I doubt it. As far as wondering whether sexual experience before marriage enhances marriage, I doubt it again. I think people who cheat do so because of a lack of character not because they lacked experience before marriage. If someone is considering losing their virginity, asking themselves how likely they are to regret it in the future might be a good idea, since you can't undo it. The "I wouldn't marry anyone without experience" attitude isn't likely to hold up when your soul mate is a virgin. Virginity, or lack of it, runs a distant second either way when you're in a relationship that's serious enough to be considering marriage. Would you fore go spending the rest of your life with the person you care about the most because they either were or weren't a virgin?

No. I don't think that I would like to marry someone who was a virgin. First of all, you should better test the water before you go in. And anyway, there is more chances that after many years of marriage he would get curious about other women too. It is even bigger temptation to try something that you never had before. I would never take chances on that!
What if the guy has some erection problems? And I was never planning on marrying anyone earlier than being 25 or older. Waiting that long??? And my fiance being in his 40s and virgin? Gosh, no!!!! I am glad that he practiced on other women to get it right! haha

Well, let me tell you a little story: my sister was a virgin, and she married a virgin. He then discovered porn and hookers and 13 years later, they were divorced. At the age of 35, she's married to only the SECOND guy she's ever slept with ---and THAT marriage isn't going so great either.

hot oran, Very, very important unless of course you are an unrepented sinner ! Virginity is the most precious gift a bride or groom can give to the other. This way there will be no memories to come between you ! Almighty God will be very pleased !!!!

Yes, it is. You can offer your new spouse the best gift you can, a pure you. There is both a moral and protection aspect to this. To remain pure until marriage allows you to be safe from medical and emotional pain. Morally, you are able to hold onto your integrity and honor God as well as your new spouse.

Nope, not to me. My husband was a virgin but I wish he hadn't been. It just forced us to go extra slow and suffer through some times of extremely disappointing sex.

I personally don't think that it is, but I do believe that a lot depends on the religious upbringing of both parties involved.

I do not think it is important but it would really depend on ones moral and values.
