Instead it was a set of stories 'helping' people get on the scoreboard.<br /><br />Very disappointing and not worth our time.Jimmy the Tolerant (with limits)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19222551.post-17236808353126644932012-07-19T11:17:49.334-07:002012-07-19T11:17:49.334-07:00I have to echo The Jones Family.

This television show is a stunt, a deliberate mischaracterization of human sexuality in order to go with popular practice display virgins as backward religious freaks or repressed nut jobs. If TLC actually wanted to give an honest documentary, there are plenty of well-balanced, normal women out there who they could have contact, in their teens and early twenties, particularly devout Catholic women. I know, because I've met women like this, God bless them. Men might be rarer to find, sadly. I'm sure you could find someone more appropriate than the man they picked, however.Jonathan Cariveauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15851753974929427253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19222551.post-19153108658514070222012-07-18T23:51:21.309-07:002012-07-18T23:51:21.309-07:00Thanks for this post.

I was not aware of this new show...I won't be watching it because I, like you, find it disgusting that "saving" oneself for the sanctity of marriage is being exploited for commercial gain. People of faith, Catholics, Mormons and others, all need to contact TLC and let this "learning channel" know that we won't watch a channel that portrays sexual morality as some sort of human anomaly. We also need to contact sponsors and then refuse to watch this channel any more. Thank for informing us.Debbie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10860602536020970116noreply@blogger.com
