? Of the Day: Should More Women Rock The Purity Ring/ Chastity Belts
As singer/songwritter Jordin sparks contemplates taking it off, should more women consider wearing one?
Singer/ Songwritter, Jordin Sparks may be unlocking her chastity belt. Well maybe its not a belt but the 19 year old singer has very publicly indicated that ring on her finger is a “purity ring” which she worn proudly since the age of 13 signifying her virginity. However most recently she has hinted that her relationship with close friend, singer/songwriter/model Steph Jones might lead to her removal of the jewelry.
“We don’t know whether or not to go further or to just keep the friendship,” the singer, 19, told People Tuesday night at the 57th Annual BMI Pop Awards in Beverly Hills, where Jones was her date. “It’s crazy. We’ve got the feelings, but we don’t know whether or not to say it out loud.”
Alright there a couple of things to note here. While Jordin Sparks is very young she’s a public figure and should know if she says we don’t speak on our relationship out loud…she just did. I think its commendable especially in this very sex driven society that she’s celebate. I was until that age as well but I wasn’t wearing a ring. If you do decide to do so, doesn’t that become problematic when you finally jump in the sack? Then everyone knows about it. “Damn Jordan got some last night.” Some things are just better left unsaid.

Word! and once she loses it, there is no getting it back. This aspect of being a celebrity, where your whole life is public record must be hard. But like you said, she could have left that alone; and if “E.T.” noticed one day that the ring wasn’t on her finger, she could just say, “personal choice to not wear it,” and keep on stepping. She is a beautiful girl. Whether she remains a virgin or not, I hope she keeps that inner beauty.
yeah I don’t think its ever good to make your virginity your main story.
we already knows what happens to those who are virgins and announce to the world that they are about to get it in soon, britney spears being an example and she wasn’t even the virgin she claimed to be, but I digress. I respect anyone that chooses to remain a virgin until they are ready, key word, when THEY are ready. She seems like a bright girl and from what I can tell she looks happy with her boyfriend so if she feels she is ready to remove the ring then she should.

I never needed a chastity ring, my father was my constant reminder. What I admired about him was the fact that he kept it real with me about sex and not just the physical part about it but more so the mental. He wasn’t the type to say your virginity is important or so forth he told me the reality about men and not the fantasy version. The reason why people in america are so sexually driven is because their parents feared talking to their kids about sex, the only thing they say is don’t do it but with no reason behind the command. so kids get curious and ask other kids their age, take from movies and shows, and make up what they think it’s about. The fathers that want their kids to remain “pure” or blah blah better start telling the truth I bet if you kept it real with them and spoke to them like adults and not the little babies you remember them being they would be in no rush to start having sex, trust me I speak from experience.
Well what did your father say. Educate the young fathers out there about what they should tell their kids.
We all damn well know she ain’t no virgin.
I don’t think it should matter if you wear a purity ring/chastity belt or not, if you’re going to have sex, have sex, if not, jus’ don’t do it. You don’t have to wear stuff like that to let the whole world know what you are(or are not) doing. PEACE!!!
Taking it off should be just as much as a celebration as wearing one!No one ever taunts a pregnant woman so who would go…you just got some last night.haha.
fair point. But isn’t sex a celebration too?
no! or yeah until they meet the kid
