One thing I've wondered about

May 20, 2009 01:40

Given how the purity craze loves to convince girls how their virginity is the only virtue they should worry about let alone the only one that will matter to your future husband, I wonder how does this effect the women who bought into it after they finally lose their virginity on their wedding night? After being so convinced it's the only thing they got going for them, do they worry that their husbands will think less of them now that it's gone? Or do some of them get hysterical during the sex because they're going to lose it? And how these groups still pressure women to remain pure after marriage, do they go through massive guilt if they get any pleasure or try to touch their husbands instead of Phyllis Schfly's advice of "lie there and expect some discomfort"? It's something I've wondered and since this is a group about reclaiming sexuality from fundamentalism, have any of you had these feelings?
