Purity Ball?

Have you seen this, and if you have, what do you think about christian fundies who are into this - like Mike Johnson, third in line for the president?

How does a 13 year old girl who has little to no knowledge or education of the procreative process make a commitment like this? You know it's not coming from her, she's been coerced by her Father and his Religion into making this commitment to satisfy their need for control of her vagina.

@spjennifer It's about control - the church (and the girls father) 'own her' via the pledging, wearing of purity rings, etc. and young men of the church cult are warned that they will be taken by the devil if they in any way attempt to breach those celibacy vows. Disgusting. I never had any of that but didn't do sex for other reasons until I was in my mid-20's. So glad I left the church in my late teens after a few years deeply immersed until I 'saw the light'.

@zonavar68 Oh I know that it's about control. Glad you were able to see the light and get out of the cult in time 😊
@spjennifer Control over more than just that - control over girls entire lives. No purity balls for boys.

@FlowersNButterflies Yes, exactly how they think, of course no purity balls for the boys, they can empty their balls wherever they please!
@spjennifer You are crass.

@FlowersNButterflies Perhaps but certainly not more crass than the men trying to take control over women's bodies.

@spjennifer Purity movement is exactly that - men controlling women and starting from an early age. Christianity re-inforces the belief that women are the property of men. I hate that, as I regard women as temples to be honoured. Otherwise us men better start learning how to have babies.

@zonavar68 I agree, the days when women were considered to be chattel and property of their Fathers and Husbands are long ago passed in most Countries.
I consider women to be people, the equal of man and same for men as the equal of women. No one should hold the right of property over anyone else or anyone else's body, that is slavery.
