This is one of the few episodes we will be releasing over the next few weeks regarding purity culture. If you've been listening to us for a while, you know purity culture is something that often comes up in our episodes and I wanted to do a mini-series focusing on it. Here to discuss their own journey with purity culture, we have Canadian queer alt-pop artist Adaline, who just released a purity culture inspired single "True Love Waits", the third single from upcoming EP "Hymnal" (out March 22), that follows her journey of reconciling queerness and the harmful religious narratives she experienced growing up as the daughter of an evangelical minister. 

To learn more about Adaline and hear her music visit: Adaline (adalinemusic.com)
