Purity balls - chastity pledges gone wrong

Beef, it's more about controlling what you can control.

These dads and the purity stuff is freakishly creepy, don't associate me with that. But in answer to what the boys are being taught ... a parent of a teenage girl doesn't have the luxury of assuming every parent of every boy is reading from the same playbook. At some point, a girl will encounter a horny boy. And the biological truth is the boy doesn't pay the same price if a pregnancy results.

Good public policy to educate the boys more. Mostly irrelevant within one's own family, though.

 

The track record of these pledges appears to be mixed.
