A progressive Christian author and theologian has a great idea for what to do with “purity” rings: burn them! The pastor issued a call on Twitter for people to send her those rings so she can melt them down and recast them as a “golden vagina.” She sees it as a powerful way to turn a symbol used to shame women and their bodies into something beautiful and liberating.
The pastor is the founder of Denver’s “House for All Sinners and Saints,” a progressive, queer-inclusive Lutheran congregation. She pushes back against religious notions of controlling women’s bodies and sexuality. In exchange for the purity rings, the pastor sends a silicone “impurity” ring and a “Certificate of Impurity.”
