don't personally subscribe to the purity culture, but I feel like it deserves to be adequately researched in it's origin, and how it affects our thought process now.  

By age 20, 77% of the respondents had sex, 75% were premarital and 12% had been married 

By age 44, 95% of respondents (94% of women, 96% men) had premarital sex. 

Even those who had abstained until at least age 20, 81% had premarital sex by the age of 44   

Allow yourself to be open minded, educated and loving. The appraisal of your value will come from within; Because the opinion you carve out from yourself will always be the only one that holds any true value in your world, as it will determine how you walk your own path.
