"Perception is reality. Maintaining sexual purity, hum, interesting. This is Dr Paul host of Ask Dr. Paul and author of Boomer Girls look. Maintaining sexual purity all starts here because as you define yourself so you define your quote on quote purity. We had at one point in time those women known as technical virgins. They did everything but have sexual intercourse so in their own minds eye they were still quote unquote virgins. They weren't but that perception they had of themselves was the important thing. Now purity is within. I can be available to someone who I love or someone who I'm interested in or maybe two or three people and in my minds eye I am sexually pure. I am pure only in the way that my culture tells me I am but that's not important as how you tell yourself you are. So it's all within. Most importantly don't do the guilt thing because that does not pay off. Sexual purity starts at the point in time where you meet that person who is most important to you in your life. That person who is the love of your life. Anything that's happened beyond anything that's gone on before that point in time means nothing because the point of sexual purity as far as you're concerned be you male or female starts at that point in time that you met this person who is the love of your life. No matter what you did from that point back means nothing. So sexual purity starts from there. Then you have your personal evaluation that's what it's all about. It's your perception be you male or female. This is Dr. Paul. May your fantasies of today be your realities of tomorrow."
