It is very likely that in the course of reading you will recognize some of the teachings that have been imparted to you in the church, or at home, and likely that you will relate to the positive and/or negative criticisms that have been given to the movement. If you are one of those people who, like me, did not previously know what the “Purity Culture” is and the influence it still has on youth around the world, I invite you to read the following exposition about its origin, characteristics, influence, and criticism it received throughout all these years. While the concept of the Purity Culture was completely new to me, I was able to identify that several of the characteristics it has and the teachings it imparts had been adopted in some way or another not only in the United States where it originated, but also in my country, Bolivia, and I have no doubt that it has also had an influence in many other Latin American countries. She told me about the so-called Purity Culture that had arisen in the evangelical church in the United States a few decades ago and that to this day is quite influential. Some time ago, in the middle of a chat with a friend, a topic came up that was unknown to me but that had directly or indirectly affected my life as a Christian woman.
