Since a white wedding dress represents the purity of virginity... should an alternate color be worn if you lose your V-Card prior to the big day?

I think I might have messed up on the poll I might have selected the wrong one

I believe you don't need to worry about purity purity is in your soul.
I personally prefer a white dress. I remember always dreaming about my white dress as a little girl.
However I am quite fine with the sash or beating or anything else being a different color.
I don't think it matters what the wedding dress necessarily looks like as long as the bride feels beautiful and she's happy on her special day.

I'm still waiting on the wedding of my dreams but I'm no stranger to wearing a wedding dress or shopping for one.

That can pretty much be thrown out the window... no one only a rare some people wait until the wedding night to do it. I wasn't a Virginia when I got married, but if i would of waited what would be the difference if I wasn't, my marriage broke up, and i am divorced now... so I had kids with the ex and I would be no longer a Virgin if I get remarried... nothing is for certain now a days.

I mean... No? Not that I think it had to be white...

But I think it's more of a situation where originally it was a white dress to symbolize there verginity... But it eventually just be came the standard... So it's tradition to wear white cuz every one wares white... Not cuz of the purity... At least at this point...

Though I think there is still something to be said about it being purity just not to the extent of verginity...

Hell maybe it's just cuz a while ago they didn't want people to know they weren't still a vergin so they facked it and it just kinda became the norm...

Personally I'd love to have my bride in a red or black dress

I think the white wedding dress, to many people, only signifies that the bride has not previous;y been married. . . and sometimes not even that much as there are brides taking a second march down the aisle who choose to wear a white dress simply as a matter of preference for the color.

the bride wearing a white wedding dress and the groom wearing a white tuxedo shows that they are mentally and physically mature enough to keep from having sex until they are on their honeymoon

I have never thought that it is a “symbol” of virginity. Purity is subjective, so no.

I dont think it matters at this point

Jjpayne · Answer

No, simply because it's tradition and that tradition has surpassed it's original meaning for the practice. If that was a factor the majority of dresses available would not be white... But also... How many people are a virgin when they marry? Because that is also a factor too

Ellie-V · Answer

Not being a Virgin doesn’t make you “pure”.
You both could have strong virtuous characters. Righteousness isn’t all about sex. Bettering yourself is a personal thing and you’re not better than anyone else just because you decided to save your first sexual experience for marriage. So wearing white and what it means to be “pure” is just gonna have to be a personal choice.

In a matter of speaking... It could also represent the purity of the new relationship since technically both parties would be virgins to that marital relationship. Though it begs the question... Why have guys always worn blacl... lol

KingdomForAKiss · Answer

Let me ask you this---- Why should any person, male or female, have to communicate their status as virginal to ANYONE but the person they're marrying? Why does the audience need to be told that the woman is not a virigin? And why is there no tradition of etiquette for a man to announce his sexual status if he is no longer a virgin? I would not expect that for him either.
This tradition is archaic and sexist towards women.

If that were to happen there would be very few white weddings going on.

hansukota · Answer

I really don't think it matters. It's worn for fashion mainly these days... Traditions are all dead

Jamie05rhs · Answer

I think it would be more honest. And I would have a lot of respect for the bride if she did that. But I don't make a big deal out of it, really. It's just a dress.
