Is Margaery Tyrell really a virgin? Do you think she bumped uglies with Renly? Someone else? Do you have a theory as to who she might be sleeping with if you think she was sexually active at the time of her arrest?

She seems, umm, experienced. LOL with the technical virgin category, that might be it!
Heh I was trying to brainstorm topics of discussion last night and this morning, so wanted to post before forgetting. Is there a particular paramour you had in mind for her, or just in general?
ive wondered if she did sleep with Renly. Sure, he bats for the other team, but he would still need to sire an heir.

3-0 so far...wasn't she examined and declared intact?

She seems unsurprised that he's gay. Does she suggest a threesome with her brother (eww) in the books or the show? It all blends together. 8D
Surprise surprise, the sex thread has the most views so far...

She was examined by the Faith and declared not intact. So unless the Faith are lying (and somehow I don't think they are), Margaery is not a maiden.
Here's the thing though, she goes riding a lot, and it's known (no pun intended) that can affect the hymen. I think Cersei thought of that? I thought someone thought of that unless it was just me while I was reading. I haven't read Dance more than once.
If if she did have sex, who would have been her lover? I kind of doubt she had sex with Renly since she is so close with Loras and probably knew he was her brother's lover.
I think ink she was friends with Renly, though, since I know he wanted to take her to court to make her Robert's new Queen.

Yes, Cersei thought of that, but in a different light. She hoped that frequent riding might have affected Margaery in such a way that she would be deemed 'intact' upon examination. I recall no one else thinking about it, at least among those related to the trial.
It's a curious question: would Margaery be able to legitimately build her defense at her trial on the basis of riding? Would the Faith and the High Sparrow be satisfied with such an explanation? With the armies of Randyll Tarly and Mace Tyrell at the gates, perhaps why not? Then Cersei's scheme would have backfired especially hilariously.

I think it might well have been Renly. I imagine everyone realized they needed to produce an heir, so brother's lover or not, "sorry, Loras, we just have to". And when things went south with the whole Renly-King thing - moon tea (if required) and pretend this never happened. "Of course, King Joffrey, our Margaery is the purest virgin, we swear it!" Because what, are the Lannisters going to examine her? That would seem teeth-counting, I think. Joffrey wasn't supposed to live long enough for bedding from the very moment the Tyrells agreed to the alliance, and Tommen wouldn't notice anything when the time came for them to consummate their marriage, which was not for some years. Nobody just anticipated Cersei would make such a dirty move, so everything seemed safe.
