What's wrong with purity?

Sorry, but shouldn't that be chastity? Calling it "purity" makes it sound like Reinheitsgebot, German beer purity :wink:

No, there's nothing wrong with virginity, just as there's nothing wrong with sex outside of marriage: just don't be stupid about it! That is, be responsible--BE CAREFUL! Know what you're doing, and be respectful: don't make someone feel like a horrible person because they've had sex and you haven't: "slut-shaming" is a really crappy thing to do.

On that note, why is it OK for men to whore around, but if a woman does it, that makes her a tramp--WTF!

Just a thought,

There’s more stigma against the relationshipless/single rather than against virgins.

Just say you're "saving it for the right woman (or man)."
