The concept of virginity in European antiquity seems to have held an almost universal association with the virtue and purity, seemingly as a function both of culture and religion. How was virginity treated in Han China during this period - was it a virtue to maintain, or perhaps a burden to be shirked? Did it hold similar sorts of religious connotations to those it appears to have held in the Mediterranean world at the time?
Edit: to clarify my poor wording, I'm referring to Han Dynasty China, as opposed to the ethnic group. Sorry!
