Some of the smritis like Manu forbids marrying a girl who is not a virgin.

Is there such mention in Parasara smriti also?

That's not true

From Parashara Smriti (28)

When her husband is missing, or is dead, or has renounced the world, or is impotent, or has been degraded by sin, — on any of the said five calamities befalling a woman, law has ordained another husband for her

    @iruvar - If the text says that remarriage is possible then it means that non-virgins can get married

  • OK. Does it have anything to say on non-virgins that have never been married previously?

  • @iruvar - It cannot say otherwise the concept of kanina son would not exist
