I'll second this, and add: I'm not a fucking piece of property. This isn't the Middle Ages. This purity bullshit just enrages my inner feminist. How can fathers treat their daughters this way? When a father asks his daughter to engage in an agreement such as this, he is basically equating her worth to a tiny bit of tissue.

How fucked up is that?
