Scratch that, don't wear anything but denim skirts and long-sleeve shirts, even when at the pool.Don't touch before you get married. No kissing, no hugging, no hand-holding. Don't have a crush. If you have a crush on someone before you're married, you cannot give your husband your whole heart. You'll have an emotional STD that will infect your marriage! You should really just marry your first crush.Don't have problems. Good Christians don't have problems.Don't ask questions. Good Christians don't do that, either.Don't fight back. If a man hurts you, then you led him on and deserved it.Don't. Don't. Don't.As long as we followed The Rules, everything was supposed to be great.And everything was great. Until it wasn't.They wanted to safeguard our sexuality. Instead, they broke it.They wanted us to be spotless before God.
