Surviving purity culture: How I healed a lifetime of sexual shame | Linda Kay Klein | TEDxMileHigh

In the 1990s, a movement born out of the white, American, evangelical Christian church swept the globe: purity culture. They weren't the first or only fundamentalist religion to sexually shame women & girls. But this time, the message was mainstream, almost cool: women and girls are either pure or impure, depending on their sexuality. Decades later, we're just starting to grapple with the long-term effects of these teachings. In this deeply intimate talk, Linda Kay Klein shares how she recovered from purity culture's toxic teaching -- and how she helps others do the same. Linda Kay Klein is the award-winning author of "Pure: Inside the Evangelical Movement that Shamed a Generation of Young Women and How I Broke Free." She is a purity culture recovery coach and the founder and president of Break Free Together, a nonprofit serving individuals recovering from gender- and sexuality-based religious trauma. She has an interdisciplinary Master's degree in gender, sexuality, and religion from New York University and is a trained Our Whole Lives (OWL) sexuality education facilitator. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
