Purity Culture Happily Opinionated
-
- Society & Culture
In this episode, we talk about the harmful effects of Purity Culture. Whatever the intentions were/ are, the movement has failed to recognize the harmful rhetoric it created and how it has hurt many people who grew up in this environment. And, they’re speaking out about it… in MASSES!
Maybe you grew up in an evangelical environment that taught purity culture or maybe this entire topic sounds foreign to you. Either way, you are going to have thoughts and feelings on this episode. You’ll either be screaming, “yes… that was me too!!” or “what the heck do people actually teach their kids??” The important thing is that we are having these conversations to create an approach to sexual education that doesn’t leave kids and grown adults with a lifetime of shame and fear.
