See all of the Purity Ball pics here.
Viagra is for the treatment of inability to get or keep an erection and similar states when erection is of low quality. When you buy remedies like cialis from canada you should know about cialis online canada. It may have a lot of brands, but only one ATC Code. Erectile dysfunction, defined as the persistent impossibility to maintain a satisfactory erection, affects an estimated 15 to 30 millions men in the America alone. Sexual health is an substantial part of a man’s life, no matter his age etc.
These pictures are weird and creep me out and all that. But I don’t get what happens at these things. There have always been like “Daddy-Daughter” dances for kids. And that’s all well and good. Dads spending time with their kids and stuff. But a dance for a teenage girl and her dad, and the focus is her purity? Do you know what these events look like? I try to imagine it and it just weirds me out so I stop thinking about it.
My heart hurts. What happens from this point on if she is a victim of sexual assault . He promised to protect her. He promised to keep it safe. It complicates an already complicated healing.
Can you say “Therapy FOR EVER?”
Almost evey one of those pictures screams “incest” to me. How can they not see this?
Aren’t some of those dresses sort of short for a PURITY Ball?
Even a Dad’s hands don’t need to be where some of them are at those girls’ ages. And if it’s a celebration, why does everyone look so pissy? Is it tradition to look like that for your Purity Ball photo, or is it the photographer’s direction? Help me, I’m Catholic over here.
David Magnusson (the photographer) states: “I wanted to create portraits so beautiful that the girls and their
fathers could be proud of the pictures in the same way they are proud of
their decisions – while someone from a different background might see
an entirely different story in the very same photographs.”
Ironically (or not) I think Herb Ritts would’ve wholeheartedly approved.
To me it screams ‘man exerting his control over women’ – it is one thing to love and protect your child but another to focus directly on your daughters emerging sexuality and force, under the disguise of an innocent ceremony, that she ‘keep’ herself untouched till marriage. It’s easy to persuade the young towards your belief system, to marinate them into a doctrine they may not necessarily chose of their own accord. It’s takes two to be sexually promiscuious, where’s the same thing for the sons? Why doesn’t the ‘Purity Ball’ have the mothers of the daughters involved? For me this is too much about a mans control over a womens sexual choices, even if they are still children, it’s kinda like, get then while they’re young to agree to this.
Very creepy. I love they you have zero commentary Matthew; none is needed. If you really want these girls pledging anything, why not to themselves or to God. (For the record, I find pledges like this problematic in the first place)

It sure looks an awful lot like a man claiming ownership. “This p***y is mine until I give it away.”
Chaz Miller I have no issue with your portraits.
My concern is: Purity Pledges Are Unbiblical.
Read: Mat 5:34-37 andJas 5:12
Pledgingthings before God is unbiblical.
So the photographer poses these father daughter pairs in provocative ways, then claims it’s all in the interpretation and everyone says the event is creepy? The photographer made it look creepy. I’m not a fan of these things, but I also see some manipulation and then denial by the photographer.
Why aren’t they smiling? I guess saying yes to purity is saying no to happiness?
I can’t think of anything more cowardly than what Matthew did, which is to post pictures of young girls and make fun of them. And you call yourself a man? Did you contact any of the families? Maybe you and your little batch of commenting perverts could talk to the military dad about his feelings about his daughter.
DarkMatters I think it screams that you are a pervert.
