not serious Purim thought

I was struck by an ad for wigs advertising "pure virgin" hair. So here we have the answer to the question of why the Megillah references a second gathering of bethulos after Achashverosh had already selected Esther as his queen. Of course, a sheitel fit for a queen would have to be made of the best hair, which seems to have to come from bethulos.
