Why previous partner count and virginity matters
Introduction
A common problem that normies (and IT) seem to have with incels is that many of us tend to demand that a girl be a virgin (or at least have a low partner count) if we were to engage in a long-term relationship with her. This problem that they have could be due to bitterness caused by being a used up roastie or the admittedly more common indoctrination through popular media and the general change in attitudes towards sex post-1960s (or arguably post 1910s).
The following text is a compilation of highlights from an article (which was written by a female, not some hard-right religious incel).
If you are not willing to read the full post, this quotation is by far the most important:

Even simply recalling the feelings arouses us. Dr. Dardashti suggested this is why impassioned movies like "Twilight," movies that "remind women of their first love, that deep, intense feeling that [they've] never had before and bring this thing up," make it on the big screen and appeal to older women who might already be in longer, more mature relationships.
The fact that these women are in more developed relationships doesn't rid them of the pleasure that arises from remembering their first real taste of pure, unfettered desire.
Highlights:
Whenever and whomever it was, your experience with your first love is etched into your memory forever.
It's your first time experiencing yourself more selflessly than you ever thought you could be, feeling things you never thought you were capable of feeling toward anyone.
Regardless of how positively or negatively the experience unfolded, your first love influences how you approach romance in significant ways, even if you don't realize it.

Turns out, it's a lot.

According to Dr. Dardashti, people often compare their current relationship to their first love in order to determine if their feelings for their current partner align with that definition of love they created from their first experience with it.
Because the romantic feelings we had for our first loves felt so great, we want to duplicate them, to experience them again and again with as many people as possible.
Even simply recalling the feelings arouses us. Dr. Dardashti suggested this is why impassioned movies like "Twilight," movies that "remind women of their first love, that deep, intense feeling that [they've] never had before and bring this thing up," make it on the big screen and appeal to older women who might already be in longer, more mature relationships.
A first love can be on the obsessive side, though, especially if it happened during high school.
Throughout our romantic lives, the emotions we felt for our first loves have acted as a standard for every subsequent love.
