There is a HUGE difference between valuing female virginity and valuing them not having children already, come on now.

> rad men were less likely than trad women (43% vs 49%) to accept a divorced partner, and also less likely to accept a partner with previous kids (31% for men vs 40% for women). To me these factors all point in the vague direction of purity culture, where female (but not male) virginal status is highly prized.

I wouldn't agree with this. It seems more of wanting-less-drama culture. Step-parenting is not for everyone. There's also the Cinderella Effect, so maybe just being upfront about not wanting stepkids is better than saying okay and then treating them worse than your bio kids.

How many of these wannabes regularly leave their homes in an attempt to meet someone?

Good conversation here. I also appreciate the acknowledgement that the "trad" movement online is different from the space of actual conservative people just living their lives. The Truly Traditional aren't very online.
