6. Having premarital sex—if you are a woman. Deuteronomy 22:20–21. “[If] evidence of the young woman’s virginity was not found, then they shall bring the young woman out to the entrance of her father’s house and the men of her town shall stone her to death, because she committed a disgraceful act in Israel by prostituting herself in her father’s house.” Incidentally, if a man falsely accuses his new wife of premarital promiscuity, he is only fined.6
