    We believe in the importance of morality. As such we are expected to remain celebate before marriage. However, none of us are perfect. Some of us have violated this commandment. There are also those that may have broken this commandment before they joined the Church. In either case a period of repentance is called for. However, once the repentance process is completed, then that is the end of it. This means that a latter-day Saint does not have to be a virgin in order to marry.

    Thats something many strive for but few achieve. Its a nice thought. Faithfulness after marriage is what matters.

    No. But once they are baptized, they literally believe all their blood is flushed and replaced with Jewish blood.

    While it is taught that we should be such and keep ourselves chaste till we marry, there has been times when a girl finds this does not happen. Sex before marriage is not acceptable or encouraged however. If this is the case and she repents and works with her bishop and remains chaste thereafter she can be married in the temple as a girl who was still chaste until then because those sins are forgiven. Only her bishop and perhaps stk pres depending on how serious it was will know the details. If she was wronged like a rape then this is not her fault but counseling to get over such an event would be needed but she did not sin in that case. She can get married in at the church as well if it need be that she fell pregnant ( consensual not what I said previous) and thus a marriage was the next course with the father. If that did not happen and it was a just mistake and she later did find someone to marry, then certainly after getting things sorted with the bishop for that, yes she can same with a boy who had this situation.
