Playing with the cool kids..


I hope you all have good internet connections because I decided to dive in and post a video, something I've never done before, but what the hell everyone's doing it so...

This video is about Father Daughter Purity Balls. If you've never heard of it before, it's an event where girls bond with their fathers and promise to remain abstinent until marriage, so they can give the gift of themselves to their husbands on their wedding night. I'm not sure what gift they get in return, but as there doesn't seem to be an equivalent of this for males, I'm assuming that she's not particularly entitled to a man who's unsullied by prewife girl cooties. Oh well, we're always getting the short end of the stick here, but that's nothing new. Watch and learn.

As a father, I have to say, this is utter balderdash, and not without a measure of piffle too.

It's based on the ridiculous assumption that paternal affection renders daughters impervious to the attractions and blandishments of men. Not only that. Affection also enables them to resist the biological imperative, "thou shalt go forth and hump". If anything, lavishing affection on your daughters will teach them to be affectionate. But for sure, it deosn't fill up an "affection reservoir", with the daughter saying, "well thank you daddy. My tank runneth over and now I don't have to go screwing around". Fucking nonsense.

As a father, I know what it's like to want to protect a daughter from pain and all the ills of the world. But as a fellow human-being, I also realise this is not possible, and having the freedom to make your own mistakes is the only way to go. Any father attempting to enter into this "contract of abstinence" with his daughter is, in my opinion, trying to exercise undue influence and control. And any daughter consenting to this... well... it's too late... she's already been brainwashed.

For men, a part of growing up is being a father. And this includes coming to terms with the painful knowledge that your daughter will more than likely be engaging in the kind of sexual activity you love and crave yourself. And this is the crux of the matter methinks. It's a double-standard. What's okay for every other female out there is too disgusting and despicable for your daughter.

In any case, why do these fathers think only in terms of the possible pain they're saving their daughters from? Mabye an awful lot of pleasure will be missed too. Hubba, hubba!
