Wow autocorrect on my phone is amazing. Method smoking homophone = meth smoking homophobe. :(

OF COURSE some of those were taken in Colorado Springs.

It looks like it could be the heads from the oval in a VC andrews book. All we need is a half brother staring at her from the side and some creepy young children who appear to be starving.

this is the only one that doesn't have me looking for CPS' phone number.

umm, the symbolism here....ah caints handle it :

True story: In Sunday School in first grade, at some point, a teacher said something to the effect of "all women are virgins when they're born", in answer to someone's question about why the Virgin Mary was called the Virgin Mary (adults get weird and incoherent when trying to explain the intersection of theology and…

I want a "trust your judgment" ring!!!

I thought they looked like engagement photos or the "we are expecting a child!" pictures that are always clogging facebook newsfeeds.

" Sllleeeep my virgin child. Sllleeeep. And we shall remain this age forevermore. Your innocence shall remain untainted, and I will forever have my full head of hair. Everything after this point is decadence and death, so you and I, my child, shall sleeeeeeep. "

Granted, I don't come from a very huggy family, but if my dad ever put his arms around my waist like the fathers in many of these photos I would be totally squicked out. I guess I can understand the "protecting the ones they love" thing, but Dad's idea of protecting me was more like, "Here's your birth control…

When all the catholic girls in my hometown were getting purity rings, I sort of found myself wanting one. I was (am?) pretty materialistic although in the purity regards I suppose I'm "morally casual". Anyways, my dad bought me a ring and said "this ring should remind you that you're allowed to do whatever you feel…

Why don't sons pledge their purity to their mothers?

This is so wrong on so many levels. A girl's sexuality should not be related in any way to her father. Pledging her purity to him is the most sexist, regressive, and patriarchal act one can do in contemporary American society. Its even more literal than a father giving away the bride at a wedding.

I finally figured out where the "creepy" comes from: it is the pre-prom pose (boys hands on girls hips) that seems like a strange pose for a father-daughter . . . .

Holy hell, this one almost looks like a romance novel cover. Weirdest photoshoot ever. Also, why are there like 5 year old kids being included? What the hell do they have to pledge, I'm sure they don't even have a full understanding of the ideas of virginity and chastity yet.

Attention world: penises are not magic. They are not capable of corrupting purity or pissing off deities.

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

I'm sure those 5 year olds were ready to make that kind of commitment, know what it means, and won't have second thoughts. Considering 3% of Americans wait until marriage I am predicting none of these ladies will remain "pure".

Fixed it for you.
