[QUOTE="Rob Banks, post: 1232802, member: 12046"] Serioulsy? "Obsession" with virgins? So throughout almost all of human civilized history, it was unacceptable to most men to even consider marrying a non-virgin. This was the case in the stone ages, in Biblical times, in the middle ages, in Victorian England, etc. I guess the men in all those ancient and medieval societies were just too corrupted by "patriarchy" and too "obsessed" with virginity to see the "truth" (i.e. that virginity isn't really important and men shouldn't be judgmental of a woman's promiscuity). Just because a man wants a virgin doesn't mean he has to worship her and/or believe she is "perfect." And just because a man wants to start a family but recognizes that no woman is perfect doesn't mean he has to be okay with committing to a used woman. Of course no woman is "perfect." No man is "perfect" either. There are still significant (biologically-driven) reasons why men have pretty much always preferred to marry virgins ever since the beginning of time. [/QUOTE]
