Information between the divorce rates of people who enter marriage as virgins versus those who aren't?

Where can I find information about the difference in divorce rates (for people's first marriage) between those who are virgins when they get married, one person in the couple is a virgin, and both in the couple are non-virgins.

I don't know the statistics. Yes, virginity decreases the chances of divorce for many reasons. Learn about chastity (purity) and oxytocin (sex/bonding) and you'll find answers to your questions.





When you have sex with someone your brain releases a chemical called oxytocin. Oxytocin creates a bond between people, promotes trust, makes you less critical of mistakes, etc. Inside of a marriage oxytocin can help people grow closer.





Outside of marriage oxytocin can make life confusing because of the bonding and break-ups between people. The strongest oxytocin bond is formed with the first person you have sex with in your life.Information between the divorce rates of people who enter marriage as virgins versus those who aren't?
There aren't that many articles out there on the topic. Here is a link to one of the more interesting one. The data did not look at the sexual history of the husbands, only of wives. I found it interesting. Women who only sleep with the man they marry are much less likely to divorce as compared to women who have had previous sexual partners. Whether they sleep with their husband before the wedding or save it until after marriage doesn't really change the chance of divorce.
So many people here are obsessed with Virginity. This is an interesting question, though it would be tough to prove any accuracy- it's a broad issue with aspects that would be influenced by culture, economics and religion.
Good luck. I would think a study like this wouldn't necessarily be accurate, even if you find it. A lot of people won't admit to having had sex before marriage, so the results may or may not be truly reflective.
