First, I know there is often confusion between the Virgin Birth and Perpetual Virginity of Mary and I was seeing some confusion, hence my clarification.
The Bible never says she chose to remain a virgin or that they did not have a conjugal marriage. My vocab choice was fine.
However, thank you for your statement and I see perhaps a glimmer of why even though not directly addressed.

So say you. Ask yourself why Mary went unpunished for putting a question to Gabriel when Zachariah was struck mute.
“My vocab choice was fine.”
Not for a Christian.
