I've afraid that it doesn't accept them, in the same way that it doesn't accept men at all. The significance of virginity is that it enables us to form a true bond with the deity, untainted by the physical world.

Since only a tiny minority of women will ever be called to this path, the continued existence of the human race is not in danger.

How does your faith define virginity? Is it just no penis-in-vagina sex? No anal sex? No lesbian sex? No mutual masturbation? No masturbation? No oral? All of the above?

All of the above. Masturbation is a tricky one, because even children do it to a certain extent. Once we take our vows though, it is forbidden.

Dear Burchfam, if one is believed to be chosen for a certain reason to stay a virgin then god bless you on your chosen path, perhaps an even balance is maintained with men in positions of the church who abstain. Life, like ying and yang, male and female, positive and negative, day and night, on top of the table and underneath it, a continuous and marvellous expansion of Intelligence especially when you put love( that immortal word, love) into that word Intelligence.

Thankyou.

No problem, strong faith.

Losing one's virginity is heredity:
If your mother didn't lose her's then it's more then likely either would you!!!!!

I find it ironic that a group dedicated to Walburga Frouwa would all try to be virgins. Isn't that a bit counterproductive?

What would happen if one of your members was raped?
