The identification of chastity with virginity is a strong narrowing of the concept.

It includes much more. Even if you listen to the word, push off from its origin, you can guess: chaste - a whole and wise man. Chastity is generally a wise attitude to life, inner purity, wholeness of thoughts and deeds, the integrity of the mind, not contaminated by low feelings and habits, the priority of the highest and eternal over minute benefits and pleasures. And the opposite of chastity is the state of depravity and corruption of the soul.

It turns out, it's still not necessarily a girl in a skirt up to the floor and with a slanting to the toe. No, chastity is an attitude to life, to oneself, to people. Like inner beauty, it must first of all be inside, not outside. It is the purity of our thoughts in relation to ourselves, to men, to family, to society. Look at the photos of Queen Alexandra, or Sophia Loren, or Meryl Streep. Are they chaste? Yes, they do not have vulgarity and depravity. Are they attractive? Yes, and very feminine.

Why does it attract men? First, the forbidden fruit is sweet, what can we say. Secondly, for long-term relationships, for the creation of a family, men are looking for serious girls, such as they will be sure whom they can trust. And will someone refuse a wise wife?.

Here are two similar situations. The first date, a young man eats a girl's eyes and barely restrains the desire to pounce on her with kisses. What can I say? Great, for sure, he really liked him, insanely attractive and desirable. But is his mood serious and does he have plans for a family? Why does he feel this way? Most likely, and because for a girl such actions of a young man on the first date are permissible.

In another case, he listens attentively to what she says about herself, and only kisses her cheek on good-bye. Probably, he did not like him at all? Or maybe he realized that before him is a solid and serious person, to be treated with trepidation and caution?

And he would like to create a family with such a woman who knows his own worth, who is not scattered over trifles. And the girl herself knows well what she wants and what is permissible for her, and what is not.

Chastity is actual in our time too. And it is valued much more than accessibility and promiscuity. A chaste girl loves and, most importantly, respects herself, which means that men will also treat her like. Maybe she will look for her second half longer, but the result and its quality are worth it.
