*This episode contains topics that may be triggering to some, including religious trauma, purity culture, infertility and sex education. Please use discretion when listening.*Growing up as the only daughter in a deeply religious Baptist home was an interesting experience for Kendyl. Her father was strict and adhered to the principles of Christian "Purity Culture", a fact made evident to her by all the double standards she was witnessing. As she grew older and gained more autonomy, Kendyl started to unpack years of hypocrisy, shame, and religious trauma, choosing to understand the systems that made her who she is, where it all went wrong, and how she can change the future.Show NotesWatch Shiny Happy People - https://amzn.to/3pfUaQCThe Flaw at the Center of Purity Culture - https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/03/purity-culture-evangelical-church-harms-women/618438/How an Abstinence Pledge in the ’90s Shamed a Generation of Evangelicals - https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/06/us/abstinence-pledge-evangelicals.htmlD.A.R.E - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_Abuse_Resistance_EducationTo BORG or not to BORG: Safe alternative or dangerous trend? - https://dailytargum.com/article/2023/03/to-borg-or-not-to-borg-safe-alternative-or-dangerous-trendDozens of students hospitalized during 'Blarney Blowout' in Amherst - https://www.wcvb.com/article/blarney-blowout-2023-umass-amherst-dozens-hospitalized/43197995 Out of MLM - https://outofmlm.info/Cultish by Amanda Montell - https://amzn.to/3Q7owx9Dr. Steven Hassan's BITE Model - https://freedomofmind.com/cult-mind-control/bite-model/Ponzinomics by Robert L.
