Purity Culture Explained

[@beckkavenia3769]

I grew up in the Catholic church and we were NEVER allowed to talk about sex, not even at 14+, yet I knew what it was since age 8. Very frustrating . Made it feel dirty, but didn't deter me in the least. There's a huge difference between making sex seem so curiously taboo vs. talking about it like it's apart of nature that should be treated with respect.

[@berwynsigns4115]

Agreed, making sex into something hugely taboo can make one curious. And can make one want to 'get back at' those who treat it as such, by being promiscuous. Whereas treating sex as something serious, willed by God, but not something casual that can be done in any way at any time, doesn't add any forbidden fruit excitement to it for normal people.

[@Cheyajm]

I'm catholic. The Church was terribly affected by the sexual revolution sadly. It caused serious flaws and lacking of proper formation in sexual ethics in our parishes. We needed more of Theology Of the Body, not protestant purity culture. It was an overreaction of those rejecting the revolution, an extreme clung to by a couple of generations of people and especially American Christianity. We need comprehensive sexual education predicated by Theology of the Body, where we start with dignity and confidence of the human person. You don't give away bits of yourself, nor are you a crumpled flower. We are sexual beings, and we have to learn how to ethically behave as such.

Wouldn’t have been “better” without it because that was the rise of the sexual revolution.

[@Pepperoni-and-cringe]

@@amyqb117 sexual revolution was a disaster for men and women especially children. It satisfied immediate lusts but now no one is getting married or wanting to raise their kids. Just waiting for things to finally shift. Even feminism is not working out since now men are afraid to work with or hire women. Most Women can’t have the choice to raise kids from home. Sending kids to failing school system where teachers are leaving in large numbers from broken homes raising bad kids driving them insane. All of it was an experimental disaster.

[@StefanTaf]

untrue, what brings down teen pregnancies is actually sex ed in terms of divorce, imo a loving God doesn't want u to suffer in an abusive relationship, people don't leave good marriages also younger generations are having less sex now than even 50s, have u looked at birth rates recently?

[@KirisutonoNeko]

I don’t know whether it would be said that I was truly a part of purity culture or not, but I would say I am one of the ones it benefited at the periphery of it at least. Dad left when I was little, and I could easily have become a statistic but instead somewhat miraculously managed to wait till marriage, due in large part to the books I read explaining the ‘why’s’ behind various boundaries one might set for oneself. I’m glad it was prominent enough for the message to reach me.

[@rachieeecakez]

I had a purity ring (my dad actually got me a beautiful gold and diamond ring) and I did remain a virgin until I was married (at 26😅) The only thing I really regret is my parents didn’t talk to me about sex. Or my body or anything. What I learned I learned from school and crappy kids at school. I learned it at an inappropriate way at an inappropriate time. My advice and what I’m going to do with my children is talk to them. Early and appropriately. My mom tried to talk to me about it when I was 26 a couple days before I was getting married and at that time it was just embarrassing. I had been working with firefighters for a long time so there wasn’t anything I haven’t heard of at that point. 😅😅😅 Just talk to your kids.

[@sweetxjc]

I think it would always be awkward. When my parents tried to talk to me about it when I was eleven I was supper uncomfortable and left. They weren’t hard or anything. Really kind actually but it was just weird. It was information I didn’t need. Personally, I felt it was too early and I didn’t want to engage in sex anyway. I rather them talk to me about it as an adult. I prefer something like before my wedding because we’re both women now.

[@SaneAsylum]

I learned it all well before my parents would have talked to me about it. I remember laughing at my older brother asking my dad (when Top Gun came out) what a hard on was. There is no time that isn't awkward and nowadays the internet is freely available to all.

Purity culture was poorly executed. First, be born again (John 3:1-7). Then let God choose your partner (1 Corinthians 7:27; Genesis 2:24). And lastly, let the bed be pure (Hebrews 13:4). I know it's hard to not be worldly, but being a virgin isn't that hard. I just recently turned 31 and I'm a virgin. Yes, there's urges, but I've chosen to be single. Personally, I think God wants me that way (Matthew 19:12). But I'm not completely sure. Anyhow, be biblically minded about this than being a friend to the world (James 4:4).

[@gustavusadolphus4344]

You don't "chose to be single" you are chosen to be single. Singleness is a gift as Paul says. Plus I would be careful saying "it's easy to be a virgin". God may have gifted you with a low sex drive to make your gift of singleness easier, but that doesn't mean everyone has the same sex drive as yourself. Some who have a very high sex drive struggle greatly with virginity

[@skylinefever]

@@gustavusadolphus4344 I often think about all those memes about anti-h0rny tabs, and how that would encourage no sex outside of marriage. The marriage promoters probably wouldn't want such things to exist anyway.

[@susieedminster3822]

Purity culture was great at my church as a teen! Everyone that participated understood it was a promise they were making to God about their understanding of God's intention for sexual purity. It was a healthy movement at my church. I used my simple white gold purity ring as my wedding band. My promise to God about purity was made when I was sixteen and I'm still living a sexually pure life with my husband. We honor one another, are faithful to each other and teach our kids about sexual purity to honor God and his purposes for our lives. People sin. People make mistakes. When the Jbros or Miliey got it wrong that is just too bad. I don't see how that impacts me or my choices! If others choose to jump off a cliff that doesn't mean I join them. I'm in my own lane. God's word is the lamp unto my feet. Try that. When a public pastor or priest messes up you can pray for them and not abandon your faith cuz it was never meant to be in them... your confidence was only and always in Jesus.

[@KirisutonoNeko]

Well said. And similarly, we had my purity ring resized to become my husband’s wedding band.

[@fireemberess]

I'm glad your experience with purity culture was fine, but it goes beyond the people getting it wrong. it's the way purity is presented. Virginity is made an idol, and kids are told things like having their virginity compared to chewing gum or wilted flower, speaking to them as if their bodies are forever tainted and they are forever unlovable because they aren't virgins. Many of these classes often make no distinction between losing your virginity to sexual abuse or willingly loosing your virginity, and both are lumped together. It's also completely anti-christ. The gospel is about restoration and forgiveness, yet the purity movement pushed this idea that a woman's virginity is the most valuable aspect to a potential husband, and losing it- no matter *how* she loses it- makes her forever unclean and disgusting as a wilted flower or a chewed up piece of gum. Meanwhile, in the Bible we have stories of women who were restored from prostitution, who were turned into brides, mothers and grandmother's after being restored in God.

[@toddtaylor7204]

@@fireemberess ...Living a pure life is not anti-christ, not even a little. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not covet. Fornication is called out as a sin in scripture. The complications you mention may need to be addressed with individuals, but the teaching to live the commandments is not a bad teaching. Don't get confused., and don't complicate the teachings of Jesus with your own personal misgivings, especially when teaching the next generation to be loyal to God.

It's not "an attack" - it's just human nature, and since more people have access to information and advice/support, more people are actually living like they want to. Abstinence isn't the way, education and responsibility is.

[@SBNRBornagain]

Late comment, but don’t care, abstinence is the way. It’s called talking to your child about it, and telling them how it’s natural, but serious and shouldn’t be taken causally. Also, you are sick, calling embryos “their embryos” like y they’re not property. Human bodies are human bodies, and the fact you’re saying it’s not murder to pull the limbs off from the baby, is sickening. Embryo, Fetus, etc are all developmental labels for the human body’s growth. Just like Newborn, Toddler, Adolescent, Elder etc. Use the brain.

I agree, it had good intentions or a lot of them but it’s damaged the overall idea of sexual purity outside of marriage in societies collective mind because look how far over-corrected it’s becoming? We didn’t need Miley naked on a wrecking ball to know that, but we got it didn’t we? Here’s the deal, young ladies and gentlemen, take this for what it’s worth. Your purity doesn’t define you, your heart does. You aren’t defined by your past but you will have a reputation based off of it. Sexual purity or even just a traditional value system isn’t for the benefit of those around you, it’s for your protection in many ways; emotional, spiritual, and physical. You can say sex is meaningless and there’s no right or wrong as far as promiscuity is concerned, but what you will eventually realize and face is the reality of what you believe has been based on a lie for the temporary pleasure and gratification of yourself and those who pursue you. Save yourself! This movement toward ultimate sexual liberation literally destroys people’s lives.

[@toddtaylor7204]

Maintaining sexual purity before marriage and complete fidelity to your spouse is still the only right practice. I never heard of this purity ring stuff or any promises of a perfect marriage, but complete fidelity to your spouse is very important. It's an extension of what it is to be married, and it should be maintained even before you ever meet your spouse. It makes sense as part of your commitment to God and as a commitment to your spouse. Telling me about people who completely abandoned the correct way of living doesn't sway me from living right. Telling me that people went the other way doesn't convince me that the teaching to be loyal to your spouse is wrong. I don't think you explained a culture of purity at all. Life can be difficult, and perfect marriages aren't promised to anyone in this life, but living right is a worthwhile pursuit in its own right.

[@Waterwave37]

It fumbled in its whole entire conception and execution. Firstly, completely failing to normalize people’s relationship with their own sexualities, it did the exact opposite, repressing them to the point of either creating phobias or creating hyper sexualities, and often doing both at the same time. It also attached people’s self worth to their sexual morality. Your sex life is not all you are, especially when we’re talking about the sex between two consenting adults. Instead of stressing the risk and responsibility that engaging in sexual activity requires. Instead of talking about the responsibility people have to be considerate to their sexual partners, the actions they should take for protection in case they have it, and the severity of the consequences if they don’t, it mostly just focused on “don’t do it because god said so” yea no shit teens will reject that, it’s a terrible reason for anyone who rejects or has doubts about gods exists, his authority, or his doing things for the good of humans. Which is a lot of people. Even for those that do believe in all of that they weren’t given tools to regulate their desires, only tools to repressing it, which often results in acting out those repressed desires later on. Or it results in people (especially have heard this from women) who when they eventually do get married are programmed into seeing sex as something dirty and sinful, (coupled with a culture that is terrified to talk about women’s sexual pleasure) leading them to very tumultuous relationships with their own sexuality. It’s a big L all around.

Really hoping to strike a balance and lifestyle with my children that helps them understand the real risks of premarital sex and contraceptive use, as well as the real benefits of being selective and waiting...without scaring them, shaming them, or pushing them in the opposite direction.

[@user-hy2qo6lj2q]

My parents taught me all about sex and reproduction at an early age. They had no problem with this even though our family was Catholic (not overly devout but some church attendence and Catholic schooling). They also made clear what they expected from me: To ideally wait until marriage or at the very least in only pursue sex as an adult in a consenting and long term relationship that should be going towards marriage eventually (a bit more relaxed and realistic of an approach). It made sense to me as the smartest option. Religion wasn't really a factor or used as a justification. I met my husband who shared the same values and this plan was quickly agreed to. It is just the best way to stay both physically and emotionally safe where sex is concerned.

Asked this the other day but might be better suited here. I have a question on the Jewish perceptive on Chastity. Why do Jews not believe in waiting until marriage ? Don’t the studies show these marriage are the strongest less likely to get divorced? Plus just having one romantic partner to me is just logical. You can’t get any more romantic than that, you won’t be thinking of others or comparing them. Plus the idea of being with multiple people grosses me out wether it’s me, them or both Thats done it. So why isn’t this a thing with Judaism and other religions? It seems like basic phycology. I’ve had mixed answers so far that the laws are complicated, it depends on who, what, where, when are relationships can be permissible. But incest and grape is not allowed. I was in a relationship with a Jewish girl and she admitted she has had multiple partners. (2 of them, if she was honest.) So I didn’t want to Continue the relationship. Did I do the right thing? Shouldn’t I forgive her? (I’m in my late twenties and she might be the best I get.) I Believe she doesn’t see sex as a big deal so will continue to do it wether it was with me or now another. I could try and ask her if we talk again, and ask her views in those things. She is very close with her Rabbi so I’m so confused if she did the wrong thing or not. Or what he would think about it. I’ve now been told like alcohol they don’t encourage it but don’t ban sex before marriage. Yet others say it’s a sin.

[@ididntaskyouropinion]

In biblical times it wasnt a sin so much as a way to stop the spread of disease. Now we have antibiotics but still not everything is curable. Like you, i find having multiple partners at once gross and just asking for issues. But 2 is a far cry from multiples in mho. If youre not sure of your abilities due to inexperience, thats one thing. Women love teaching it. Not everyone has the choice who they sleep with. I was raped twice as a teen, and I once counted them as "partners" when In fact they werent. They were pedophiles. Grown men attracted to under age girls solely bc of our virginity and innocence. Its gross. So before judging a girl, remember she could be counting an experience she didnt want, because society is weird like that.

[@amandasoriano7780]

All I can say is you need to choose someone that views it the same as you. I believe sex is deeply spiritual and if you know how you feel about it DO NOT think that will change. It doesn’t. Your first instinct is right, so walk away! Matter of fact run! Take it from someone who knows. Find a woman that has been waiting for you, too and marry her. It’s out there.

[@clariceramoir]

Hi! I'll answer the best that I can. According to various Jewish history sites, religious Judaism encourages saving sexual intimacy for marriage, but doesn't condemn intimacy before marriage either. However, it is assumed the couple are in a committed relationship and not sleeping with anyone else. There are other aspects to consider about this too. Such as children being exclusively linked as a blessing of married couples and not unmarried ones. But perhaps most importantly for your situation, is this verse: "A husband and wife are one soul, separated only through their descent to this world. When they are married, they are reunited again." The Zohar, I91a In the Torah, it explains a husband and wife as being one soul meant for each other. So, ask yourself, should you have sex with anyone but your spouse before marriage? If you were made for each other, then why would you share your body with others? Then there's the fact you have waited but she hasn't. You said she doesn't seem to care to wait, and that she would do it with any man she's with, regardless if it was you or not. Or at least you feel that way. It also seems that you still like her since you wonder if you should just move past these feelings and be with her despite these concerns. From my own experience I know this. God does not make a soulmate you have to 'settle' for. There is no expiration date on your age to find love. You will find a woman who has waited for you too. It's the waiting that is the hardest part of all of this. I am a Christian, but my husband wasn't raised in the Church. I prayed for a man who was a good Christian and a virgin, as I was waiting for marriage to be with him. I didn't realize it, but God had answered my prayers WAY before I realized it. My husband was in love with me since high school, and his feelings never wavered even when years had passed. It took me a while I realize it, but I had found my soulmate. We were both virgins who waited until marriage in our mid-20's. He wasn't religious, but he had waited too. Like you and me, we recognize that sex is special and there are many more benefits to waiting for your spouse than not. One big aspect we're thankful for is the lack of drama from past sexual affairs that we saw so many others suffering from. So, no. You didn't do anything wrong by making premarital sex the line which you will not cross. If she doesn't feel the same, it has nothing to do with her religion and what is and isn't allowed. She should have wanted to save herself for her future husband, and she didn't. It is up to you whether you continue to pursue her. But God doesn't make mistakes. And if you don't feel right, then she wasn't for you.

Purity vows and jewls are plain stupid. No one says to sleep around, most of us don't even do that, but to enter a marriage not even knowing if you are sexually compatible is insane.

Yiu SHOULD know what yiu get yourslef into before making such important step. At the very least, after engament yiu should know your partner on all sides. I know many people who divirced because of this silly traditions, and it turned out they were incompatible. Trust me, even when you are a religious person let's say, in the eyes of God isn't this a greatwr sin, to have to break your marriage vows, rather than simply trying to find out your partner on all levels?
