For this two-part miniseries on Sex and Relationships, we’re kicking off this discussion by asking: what are the messages you first got about sex and bodies in Sunday school? (We really want you to respond and let us know!) Both of us share our earliest memories that range from expectations of chastity, purity pledges, comparisons of apple pie and “Twoo Love,” and clinical descriptions of sexual acts. We look at the disconnect between reality and what we were taught, which can then allow us to start to tease apart damaging lessons of purity culture and how we can get back in touch with our bodies, and our spirit while living out our ethics and faith sexually.
