The hymen does not denote not virginal...many things can break the hymen without giving birth....Not unusual in women that play sports, my daughter when 3 years old climbed up on the counter and slide off onto the open cupboard door. Had to take her to emergency as she screamed when urinating...was a dancer in high school and according to her gyn dr. has a torn hymen. The original injury when she was 3 caused the tear. Idon'tknow where your opinion of breaking her hymen comes from...virginal just means no sexual relations.

inform yourself of what virginal means and if a torn hymen means one has had sexual relations.

I agree with you on that.

The traditional definition of virgin doesn’t always work.

It’s a distinctly unfair categorization to girls who are morally pure to say a girl who never had sex was not a virgin.

OF COURSE. Am quite familiar with all that. My wife was a nurse.

PRODDYS did not raise this absurdity, RC’s did. With great emotional intensity, haughty smugness and indignant cheek, BTW.

I was and am shocked that there would be such a silly growing RELIGIOUS dogma in anyone’s noggin whatsoever—much less that there’s a more or less formal cluster of RC’s who treat it as sensible fact and worth lobbying for, propagating, clinging to as some sort of factual holy phenomenon.

What UNBiblical rubbish.
