about chastity becoming 'chic.'
She has some issues with the chastity movement
because she sees it as 'retrograde' and perpetuates old
female roles.
And of course she quotes a sexist Harvard
professor (which I find highly ironic)
to make her point.
I think a woman's decision to live this
lifestyle does not necessarily have to hold the
1950s values that said women are to be housewives
and have no say in their own decisions.
I also believe women using their sexuality to
gain 'power,' as it is often shown in the media,
does nothing for advancing female causes either.
The article also pointed a website that encourages
modesty in young women, which I found interesting.
