Ask Zeus Operator
Why is she referred to as Athena the Virgin and being a symbol of purity, but the Gods are against restrictions on sexuality?
In this case is any mention of virginity/purity in general just a referrence to the cleanliness of the soul/aura/chakras or is there more to it?

Usually the concept of virginity refers to the incorrupt states of the soul, now I don't know what example you are talking about specifically, but basically mythology is a teaching (so it is spread allegorically). Zeus turning into animals to have sex with ever-changing women is obviously not to be taken literally. Ganesha is not a strange """""""furry"""""""" etc. (Sorry Lord Ganesha, my God, for me to having used such an example, that was just an example)
Virginity as a concept is something that's been heavily corrupted by the enemy. It's got nothing to do with whether one has had sex or not, it relates to the purity and cleanliness of the soul, spiritual advancement, removal of negative karma and such.

Because this metaphor would be understood well by the ancient Greek people of that time.
Nobody would then go out into the Forums of Sparta and yell at women on the street that their body count is too high and men deserve virginal women like Athena.
The taboo on sexuality didn't exist like it does today at the time when this mythology was revealed and spread, so the allegory worked while not having unwanted side effects.

In this context, it meant the soul, not sexuality.
Purity of the soul, purity of the chakras.
