Well in previous days and ages, where women were considered property, their "virginity" was basically esteemed as their only desirable worth. It was determined that in order for a woman to get a man, she couldn't be with anyone else, and ultimately was beholden to the man's desires.

In this day and age, where women are not property but individuals, then their "virginity" should not only not be required, but their "virginity" should not even be a thing. It really doesn't exist.

However, if a person decides on their own regard that they want to abstain, for any reason, secular or sacred, then to each their own. And at some point they will venture out, or meet someone, and take that step, pre or post marriage. But they won't have to feel beholden to someone else's desires, or plan, or expectations. People can just be, as God intended.
