That second half is the most important, obviously.

Chrissyreadit I just had to look up purity ball images. So very icky in so many ways 5y
GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit oh I never thought to do that. I‘m afraid. 5y
GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit “You‘re married to the Lord, and your father is your boyfriend.” WHAAAAA?! Several of these girls look like hostages in wedding dresses!!! (edited) 5y

GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit on my god!!! The way some of these men are peering, leering at their daughters is just disgusting. I found a story where one of the fathers from one series of these photos was arrested for sex with a child. Based on the photos, I think I know which one. 5y
Chrissyreadit Yes!!! Leering - so gross! I think the idea that some of these teens are dressed in white as though marrying their dads is awful! It‘s all creepy- 5y
GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit TEENS?! Some of these kids are barely old enough to go to school. It‘s super creepy!!! 5y
GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit this author wasn‘t kidding about ballet around a cross, either. So creepy!!! 5y
Chrissyreadit Ah- but the little ones dressed in party dresses reminded me more of a daddy daughter dance. There‘s no way someone is explaining purity to them- There are people who won‘t even discuss anatomy with kids that age! I‘m way more creeped out by the look of tweens and teens with the men- although there certainly could be horrible things going on with the little ones too 5y
GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit from what I‘ve read, it‘s all the same, no matter the age. All of those girls are given the same instruction and are taking the same oath. Those little girls shouldn‘t even know what virginity is. That‘s all kinds of inappropriate. 5y
Chrissyreadit Yes-there are several faith based dance groups in my area. I suspect they dance around crosses too and have purity balls - it‘s called praise dance here. 5y
Chrissyreadit Oh no!! I did not know!! What the fuc$???? This is how grooming works. Someone makes you feel special, you learn not to question their authority, they determine your value based on your compliance to their whims... 5y
GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit it sure sounds like grooming to me!!! So gross!!! 5y
GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit I‘ve heard of praise dance, but I‘ve never seen it with dancing around crosses. It seems a little idol worship to me. 5y
Chrissyreadit I snorted!! Idol worship is right! 5y
GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit 🤣😂🤣 this whole thing is totally warped 5y
