What's your opinion on it? Think purity rings are a lot of rubbish or are they actually a good idea?

[Crimson Dynamo]

[Firewire]

Yeah they're rings you wear to say you won't have sex before marriage,and apprentley it's supposed to be replaced by a wedding ring. They're big in America. Whole big religious thing.

[Mrluvaluva]

Sod that. Get it while you can. Lol

[Stu]

I said it before and I will say it again, have I missed a meeting? Is sex suddenly a bad thing?

Screw purity rings. Have a packet of condoms and a night to remember.

[Princess]

Oh and I'm totally against the whole thing. They should teach kids to be safe instead,it's ridiculous really and pointless.

[Ramsay]

its stupid

lol, that's hilarious!!! Eh, a big nooooooooo though!!

[WOMBAI]

All this purity nonsense it about 'ownership' - nearly always applied by men towards women. Men like to think they have had 'first dibs' - no second-hand tat. Just about thier egos. I wouldn't buy into it if I were you. Nothing wrong with a bit of experience and 'trying before buying' so to speak.

Anything that stops abortion is a plus.

[MarkWaldorf]

Well tbh before you say its 'pointless' or what ever, it's actually quite a sacred part of religion. Before it became some huge trend after the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus, it was something for young Christians (or any other religion that does it) to prove their trust to God and keep themselves pure. It was also special because a lot of girls do it as a promise to their fathers (especially in America) rather than putting on a ring when you probably aren't even religious and saying you'll do it because Nick Jonas does it.

I know Christians my age that do it and it's only because their families are really devoted to Christianity. I would never do it myself but I wouldn't lay around either.

Shame the Catholic Church is against the use of contraceptives, then.

[Sophii3x]

I personally think it's all ridiculous. Having sex before marrige shouldn't be seen as a sin at all, what's the difference with doing it before or after anyway? it's sex! But if people want to wear these rings then they can.. I just think that they should be taught about safe sex rather than be told to not have it full stop (well until their married).

[Ninastar]

and what happens when you wait till your married and you find out that your husband has a 1 inch long dick?

[Jack_]

Couldn't care less. If people want to hold themselves back on sex until they're married then good for them, if not, then good for them too.

Personally I would never do it as I don't see the point, but each to their own.

Trouble with that - is that it has nearly always been one-sided. Nearly always applied to women - and not men. Certainly don't agree with that. What is good for the goose - is most certainly equally as good for the gander!!!

Yeah, but especially in the case of the father/daughter, I don't think it's going to be fairly common for a father to ask their son to not have sex. Most males that do it have probably just seen it in the bible and know not to do it.
Plus I may be generalising here but rings are more feminine. I was given a necklace after my christening.

[Crimson Dynamo]

if more folks on here kept their rings pure then we might not have to endure so many pictures of Lady GaGa

Definitely. Call me shallow but I'd never go out with anyone who is rubbish in bed, let alone be married to them!
