Purity is a topic that often comes up in IFB circles, especially for teens. With its primetime in the 90s and early 2000s, purity culture taught women their value came from their virginity and men that they were wild beasts that only wanted one thing in this world...sex. This week, Sam and David dissect some of the myths of purity culture and where they all started.
