In this episode, Vikki and Taniya will share powerful listener stories that reveal the realities of purity culture and courtship in IFB communities, including control, shame, and abuse of authority. They explore how modesty went far beyond clothing, shaping identity, self-worth, and placing responsibility for men’s behavior onto women and girls.

Through personal experiences and audience stories, they highlight the widespread patterns of control and hierarchy within these environments, while creating space for listeners who may still be processing or questioning these beliefs. They close by setting up a deeper dive into modesty culture and its lasting impact.

Taniya and Vikki share ways they've deconstructed purity culture and dismantled the harmful, shame-filled past full of control and crazy rules.
