> Also, I would like to point out that almost all women have had more then 0 sexual partners before wedding

By the 1700s the pregnant before marriage rate was roughly 30%. So about a third of all women in the 1700s had premarital sex that resulted in pregnancy. So the actual rate is of course even higher.

People having premarital sex is not a new thing. Strong societal norms against something are not the same thing as it not happening.

A lot of those marriages are a direct result of the pregnancy, too - one thing that did happen was the couple being pushed into marriage ASAP when the pregnancy was discovered.
