I don't care if this particular "purity ball" is less skeevy than some of the others, it is still creepy. Oh my god it is still creepy. These things give me hives. Someone link me some dirty, dirty porn to make it go away.

Ew. ew ew ew ew ewwwwwwww,

That really sounds skeevy as all hell.

Here (http://beachlass.livejournal.com/34279.html), have some dirty thoughts about Sasuke.

*is horrified*

Ew. Ew. Ew, ew, ew.

I'm sure I've shown you this before, but it's sufficiently dirty to distract until angstymcgoth comes up with something laughingly horrid. Spengs in Toyland

That's less skeevy?

I don't want to see the more skeevy ones.

Why does the very concept of "purity balls" remind me of either the "vestal virgins" or that the fathers are eventually going to ask for their daughters to be turned into human sacrifices?

ew.

I don't have any porn, sorry... (I'm at work!)

The article sorta claims that it's less skeevy because at least the daughters aren't the ones making promises out loud, but I'm not so sure.

[jaina.livejournal.com]

DING. You're on to something.

Heh, I don't think I can really read/watch/look at any until I leave work, either. But it's comforting to know it's there.

[paradisacorbasi.livejournal.com]

It's still creepulsive to me.

No matter who's promising that Daddy will guard his daughter's virginity unto marriage.

It just sounds like Daddy will be a little too close to daughter to me.

[jaina.livejournal.com]

Noooooo kidding.

"But studies have also shown that most teenagers who take abstinence pledges, like those at some purity balls, end up having sex before marriage, and they are far less likely to use condoms than their peers."

'Nuff said. >_<

I am so sorry I know about the existence of those now. I don't know if the total failure to recognize a developing Electra complex makes it worse or not.

Here, have Crack!Porn.

Dean Winchester picks up Dani Reese and they have sex.

Spike picks up a big girl and Xander and they have sex.

The Doctor fails at picking up Donna Noble, but there's sex anyway.

I can't speak for Jaina but THANK YOU for those dirty thoughts.

I'mma be thinkin' up some Sasuporn now.

[maeveth.livejournal.com]

OH GOD.

I'm SO horrified right now. There are no words.

I have to go drown myself in yaoi now.

[enogitna.livejournal.com]

What do they do for the boys?

[caitlin.livejournal.com]

You know...

Just from the creep-out-eewwww factor of the article and the whole "purity ball" concept, I just might have to go write a PORN EPIC! Do you hear me?! ;)

Of course, I'm going to attempt to use original characters...

Got any suggestions or anything you want included? ;)

*snort* Do you really need to ask?

I like how the shot includes the girl in the blue low-cut slit dress. Always nice to see daddy's little girl showing off plenty of cleavage and leg at the purity ball.

[aevalin.livejournal.com]

Not to mention the number of teenage girls that do everything but actual vaginal intercourse because as long as they haven't done that they're technically virgins. They'll give away blow jobs and in some cases have anal sex because of the loop hole.

But after dessert, the 57 men stood and read aloud a covenant "before God to cover my daughter as her authority and protection in the area of purity."

I was trying to write incest porn, like, today. OH MY GOD SO BLOCKED NOW.

[kasuchi]

They're all creepy and GROSS GROSS GROSS.

[angstymcgoth.livejournal.com]

Jesus is such a cock-block.

[emiweebee.livejournal.com]

I do appreciate the fact that they are now shunting the burden onto the shoulders of the Adult Role Models, but the whole thing skeeves me.

LOL especially now, since my dad has been all, "O hai, let me talk about my man parts" because of the cancer.

While they have no male purity balls just about any sort of evangelical teenage-retreat thing will involve some sort of 'becoming God's man' sort of seminar for the young men. They end up being about 80% about why you shouldn't 1. Masturbate and 2. Have Sex Before Marriage and 3. Look At Porn. Because if you jack off it's lust (the biggest sin!) and if you have sex before marriage it's lust and cheating on your future wife (the most biggest sin!) and if you look at porn it's lust, too. And they will destroy your relationships. The guys will talk about their struggles with porn and/or masturbation and pray it out afterwards. I know this because I was a teenage Christian and I went to these sorts of things, and the biggest sin in modern American Christianity is lust, which is traditionally the lamest sin. It's not as gaudy and expensive and blatant as a purity ball, but it's totally there.

For an idea of what I'm talking about look at Lancelot Lives. This is from an evangelical magazine directed for hip, cool, skateboard-riding Christian boys, probably age 10-16. (Super special bonus in this one that isn't in most of these things in my experience - THE GAYS WILL DESTROY YOUR FUTURE MARRIAGE JUST LIKE PORN WILL, SAVE YOUR FUTURE MARRIAGE FROM THE GAYS.)

I think somebody should remind them about the story of Lancelot before they go around using it to describe God's Ideal Sexual Life For You!

OH MY GOD. I love reading this magazine, it is the best.

Because they have a short story (fictional) about a young man and his ON-LINE PORN ADDICTION. And how only Jesus + his father could save him from it.

OH MAN THIS IS ALMOST BETTER THAN THE STORY ABOUT THE KID WHO GOD SAVED FROM AN AIRPLANE CRASH OVER ISRAEL TO BECOME A MISSIONARY ON ANOTHER PLANET FROM SOME OTHER SOLAR SYSTEM. (I am not making this story up, this magazine has the best writers)

SOME QUOTES:

- At least he has wireless access. The thought brought a rush of images and instant pleasure that made Jake blush.


- Please? That’s what did it—it was that please. Jake couldn’t ever remember his dad saying that word before—a please from a man like his father was enough to jolt a bear out of hibernation. Jake sat up.


- Dragging himself out of bed to go fishing was difficult. Jake stayed up late the night before, pursuing his favorite pastime on the Internet. The excitement of his secret connections with his Web friends had drained every ounce of energy out of him and left only apathy. But his dad insisted, and so Jake forced himself to go along.


- “Porn, Jake. It’s playing with fire. It can destroy everything and everyone in its path.”

It wasn’t the mention of fire that sent heat rushing through every cell of his being. How does he know? Should I deny it? Jake remained silent.


- Jake shook his head. “No, you didn’t, or you would have given up your mistress—or never had one at all!”

“You’re right. But I didn’t realize that my mistress would create such problems.”

“Liar! How could you think that?”

“Because my mistress was pornography, Jake.”


- His dad looked toward the water and waved away Jake’s concern. “Finally, your mom had enough. She insisted I make a choice. I did. I chose to give you up, to lose her—so I could hold on to the images I’d grown to love. I wanted my mistress.”

A battle erupted inside of Jake’s mind. An argument. Porn is harmless. It doesn’t hurt anyone. It hurt me. It hurt me real bad, because I lost my dad. There are no victims. What about Mom? What about me? What about Dad? I can control it. My dad couldn’t. It ended up controlling him.


- He didn’t leave because he hated me but because he loved porn. Maybe I love it too.


- “Admit that you can’t do it alone. There’s no way I would have kicked the porn habit by myself. I needed others to pull me out of the current, to help me, to walk with me and to hold me accountable. Now I’m free and helping others who are caught in the whirlpool.”

“That’s what you’ve been doing at your support groups?”

“Yes. A lot of the guys are teens about your age.”


BEST. STORY. EVER.

[Edit]: You probably hate me now.

That . . . is enough to make one hurl.

Well, I don't know if you're into D. Gray-Man at all, but here is a fic about overprotective big brother Komui thinking his sister Lenalee's virtue is safe, not knowing what she's doing with *two* guys at once.

You read Jezebel too, eh. Stories like that make me a) STABBY and b) grateful I don't live in the Bible Belt anymore and thus am less likely to encounter such things as purity balls.
