Why is it necessary for Mary to be a virgin for her entire life ?
This is my "logic" answer . I haven't checked Rome for this, but here goes
Mary conceived of the Holy spirit . When a woman conceives a child by a man, she has a special relationship to him and is not allowed to "have sex" with anyone else while they both live . Well, since the Holy Spirit is God, she is then His Spouse and not permitted to have sexual relations with anyone .
Therefore, since she conceived virginally, she remained "ever virgin".Speaking of relationships, Mary was the daughter of God the Father, mother of God the Son, and Spouse of God the Holy Spirit .
There is no chapter and verse, this is "logic"

"Mary was the daughter of God the Father"

I can see how you can logically make the other 2 statements concerning Christ and the Holy Spirit, but this one needs some Scriptural support, and please dont site "Mary, full of grace" as your evidence of Mary being Immaculately Conceived.
