Top Takeaways

Purity culture, popularized in the late 70s and early 80s, relies on shame and control tactics to regulate teenagers' sexual behavior, but it has been proven to be damaging and ineffective.
Women who were raised in purity culture are twice as likely to experience sexual dysfunction.
The narrative in evangelical culture often places the burden of fulfilling a husband's sexual needs on women, leading to coercion and potential marital rape.
Healthy women in safe marriages should not feel obligated to perform sexually and should be able to explore and express their own sexuality.
Comprehensive sex education is lacking in evangelical culture, leading to misconceptions and misunderstandings about sex and pleasure.
Mutual pleasure and communication are essential in a healthy, consensual sexual relationship within a Christian marriage. Posting on TikTok led Leslie to speak at a conference in front of 50,000 Christian women, highlighting the demand for open conversations about sex within religious communities.
