If someone was assigned to compile a video of clips that would make me cringe‚ they would come up with something similar to The Purity Myth. The clips used were reminders of the oppressive‚ heteronormative‚ misogynistic system that I grew up in. The film itself provides ample examples of the ways in which women’s sexualities are policed‚ the idealization of virginity‚ the shortcomings of abstinence only sex education‚ and the arguments against women’s reproductive health.
