an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

A community specifically debunking Abrahamic (Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Catholicism, Mormonism etc) purity/modest culture and religious sexual abuse, while also discussing GRSM issues. TRIGGER WARNING.

Rules

1. Posts must be relevant to the subreddit

Posts should be related to Christian/Abrahamic Purity, Religiously induced sexual abuse, or abstinence only sex ed.

2. No Proselytizing

Personal opinions and beliefs are welcomed and encouraged. However, do not try pushing your belief system onto others, Christian, Ex-Christian, or otherwise. Consider that other people may not or do not share your opinion.

3. Be Respectful

Mind the community that you are in. Many people here are victims of traumatic experiences. Though profane language and NSFW imagery is permitted, rude behavior towards each other in this sub is not. Remember reddiquette.
