THE UK THINKS THAT PURITY BALLS ARE CREEPY !


"It sounds unrealistic in our day and age, it's not the exact path I went down personally, but if it can work, how cool would it be to say I've been kissed by one man in my life? How special, how cherished, how set apart? Why not shoot for the fairytale?" Ken, father of 11-year-old Hannah.

PURITY BALLS

Father Daughter purity balls have become a national movment. It is a memorable ceremony for fathers to sign commitments to be responsible men of integrity in all areas of purity. They vow to protect their daughters in their choices for purity. The daughters commit to live pure lives before God through the symbol of laying down a white rose at the cross. 



Why is it that, almost all purity balls are centered around daughters and their fathers? Can't young men make the same decision to stay pure and go to the same purity balls? I believe that boys should be treated the same as the girls. Most of these dances are referred to as "Father Daughter Purity Balls" which in my opinion is a double-standard. These purity balls should include the whole family; fathers, daughters, mothers and sons.

Many may think that the average person is the only one thinking about purity rings. Wrong! Famous people such as The Jonas Brothers (singers/actors), Selena Gomez (singer/actor) and Jordin Sparks (singer) has announced to the public what their purity rings mean to them.

“This isn’t a wedding ring, and there’s no boy anywhere,” Sparks told Us, in their June 18th issue.

“I haven’t been in love yet,” says Jordin. “I am saving myself for marriage.”



Would you rock a purity ring ?

Teaching your children to have good morals is great! Telling them that they should wait until marriage to have sex is also a good thing (To each its own). Some of the children who attend these balls are only doing it to please their parents (especially the ones who are of a younger age). My question to you is: Should parents make their kids attend purity balls or should the child make this decision on their own?

In my personal opinion, purity rings are okay for some people but for others, they put way to much pressure on someone to stay celibate or to stay a virgin. I believe that you do not neccessarily need a ring or anything unless you want to because if a person is committed to staying a virgin or staying celibate, then they are going to do it whether they have a ring or not.
