Other than for an academic interest, what does it matter?
They should be marrying for personality, compatibility, common interests and goals, etc. Sure, it can be a nice ideal (that she AND HE have only been with one another)...but one that, in the end, doesn't stack up to mean a whole lot.
(I mean, let's face it, in life's many adversities--the ones that actually make or break a couple--is the past number of partners going to matter in the face of cancer? Death of a family member? House flooding? Etc. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say ...no?)

I am sorry to say but the percentage would be low. So many young people are pressured into having sex and feel if they don't they wont be considered normal. And everything now on the tv and commercials is always sex. It seems that every tv show now shows a couple having sex and not being married. It is a shame. Even the schools teach to always have protection with you. It is up to the parents to teach the children from an early age that God never intented sex outside of marriage. When you do all sorts of things can happen like unwanted pregnancies, STD, and sadly even young girls having abortions. I really believe that the group PROMISE KEEPERS are on the right track. The members in the group make a pledge that they will remain pure until they are married. I wish that group existed when I was a teenager. It would have been a lot easier on me. Most people when they do get married aren't virgins. People do make mistakes But when we do we can help others and let them know what the consequences of those mistakes can lead to. I have been trying to help a friend of mine. I have known here since she was born. She's like a daughter to me. In fact, she calls me Momma. She is 15 and has a boyfriend. They are both in high school. She has told me that her friends aren't virgins and they tease her and tell her how wierd she is. I tell her to never give in to compromise. To stand strong and not give in. In fact, after she talked to some of them they told her that they wish they had waited like she was doing. I have told her not to make the mistakes I have made. When you do it can make you feel even worse. It did for me. I had a supposedly christian boyfriend who kept on pressuring me We went together for 2 years thought we were going to get married and didn't I felt so bad for giving in Then when I found out he was cheating with at least 2 other women it broke my heart. I lost a part of myself I can never get back I also lost my pride and my dignity. He thought it was funny. I went into a deep depression and had severe thought of suicide. That's why God wants you to wait until marriage is to protect you and not hurt you. I wish I had listened to him. Even though I am now married I broke my own vow. I had always promised myself that I would remain pure until marriage. And it still bothers me to this day. That is why I am trying to help my would be daughter. So she wont go through the anguish and pain I have had. But the world thinks people who want to wait until marriage are in an occult. But the young people need to keep their morals and dignity intact. They will be better people for it. And God can give them a truly wonderful mate. And then sex can be a wonderful thing and without guilt.

impossible to answer. The older a girl is the less likely she is a virgin. It is rare these days for a girl to be virgin when she gets married when it does happen the couple getting married are young. My wife was a virgin when we got married. I was 21 and she was 20. We have been married 7 years.

There was a study done on this showing that 90 - some odd - percent of people ( in general ) are not virgins when they get married. Like I said this is in general meaning all people regardless of which religion. This was done in the US so it doesn't reflect other countries.

whilst i substitute right into a youthful guy, severe college, that style of component mattered to me. at that element maximum youthful, white adult adult males rather have not got that lots self assurance. And to be responsive to that different guy, somebody you in all threat be responsive to, it substitute right into a small severe college, could weigh heavily on a youthful guy's techniques. With age got here understanding. I not concern myself with issues that don't actually count. And who she had intercourse with formerly she even knew me, rather does not count. yet having married a woman that fluctuate right into a virgin as quickly as we began relationship, had I to do it throughout, i think of might flow with a woman that had greater suitable than in basic terms slightly journey. i be responsive to she'd in all threat be lots greater exciting interior the sack. The ex-spouse substitute right into a trooper and tried maximum issues, yet interior the tip, she wasn't rather the sexual being I was hoping she'd become.

Less than 10%. Too many girls, especially girls who are culturally Western, are big-time s!uts.
Personally, I am going to look for a wife from another culture, because I want to marry an actual girl, not a s!ut.

The Muslim martyrs are having trouble finding enough virgins for their heaven. What makes the Chrsitians think finding virgins to marry is any easier.

What, you think the girls are going to tell on themselves? Maybe you're so mis-informed you think a guy can tell whether or not she's virgin on their wedding night. Ya know what, dude? It. Does. Not. Matter!
