Pure Freedom With Dannah Gresh - Mom... Did You Wait?

About this episode

The episode discusses the cultural shift in how teens inquire about their parents' sexual history, focusing on the silence of mothers and the impact of virgin shaming.

“Mom… did you wait?” Yes—many teens and young adults are still curious about their parents’ sexual history, especially their moms’. But the way they ask and why they ask has shifted culturally. On this episode, I’m chatting with my co-host Suzy Weibel about why so many moms stay silent, how virgin shaming affects this generation, and what happens when honesty meets God’s grace.
