- Society & Culture
Purity Culture refers to the many narratives taught mostly by protestant Christians that advocated complete celibacy before marriage. The narratives also created a hyper focus on sexuality as a key measurement of being quote on quote “right with God”. The way that these narratives were taught and communicated have created an entire culture of people who have been affected by them, both positively and negatively. On this episode, your host Jessie and her friend Kelsey break down the different narratives that came from purity culture and how they have each experienced them.
