Purity Culture and its Impact on Women
Purity culture, prevalent in Christian communities, promotes abstinence and saving sex for marriage. It sets strict guidelines for behavior, including modesty, avoiding alone time with opposite-sex individuals, and refraining from physical affection. Purity culture instills shame and places the responsibility on girls for the purity of boys. Girls learn that any impure behavior brings shame and affects their relationship with God. While there are positive aspects, such as community and understanding biblical principles, the shame and pressure can lead to discomfort discussing sex and self-doubt.
