It’s not just Islam, the Indians also virginity test before arranged marriages.

Some Latin cultures also basicly require virginity to marry up in society. Only western European and American cultures value promiscuous behavior.

Just say NORMAL, already! The new "N" word, because it triggers those who are NOT.
