Just wondering why atheists are concerned about the sexual behavior of Christian teenage girls. If you don't feel the two ideas are related, then fair enough. Do you understand?
More like it's daddy dearest that's interested in the sexual behaviour of christian teenage girls, when it comes to purity balls...huh?
Atheists, for our part...are commonly perplexed at the weird and creepy shit that christers get up to.
So what is weird about a girl wanting to be celibate. Given, it may not be the norm these days, but does that make it wrong? What is wrong with their dad making a vow to protect their daughter? Is it something to be offended by? If so, why? I'm sure having a ball isn't necessary, but I can also understand why it would be useful since it adds an extra value to that vow, because it is tied to a formal event. Kinda like a dad declaring his son a "man" so he declares it during a ritual with his tribe. It gives it a feeling of being made official.
Creepy is going out of your way to research the sexual choices of teenage girls in a demographic that you don't belong to unless you have some academic reason to do so. If I ever wake up in the morning and decide to research the sexual behavior or atheist or Muslim girls just because, you have my permission to shoot me without consequence.
