6 - Modest Is Hottest with Bethany Geringer

6 - Modest Is Hottest with Bethany Geringer

TRIGGER WARNING - Sexual and Spiritual Abuse

When you're a woman growing up in the Church, shame becomes your best friend. This week, Josie and Spencer talk to Bethany Geringer all about a few of the ways Evangelical culture shamed young girls and women into misogynistic rituals and lifestyles that left little room for self-love. Purity culture has definitely gone too far and we bring up ways to fix it (or get rid of it). From modesty classes to dress codes that only applied to the girls in youth group and purity ring revivals, we leave very few stones unturned.
