They didn't have chaperones at my old congregation but they really really wanted you to only go out in small groups,never alone.
A also recall a WT article about this time that talked about "dating" The first thing was that you should not date unless you had marriage in view. I was used to a "worldly" approach where you asked a girl out if you liked her.(I had just signed up again it the big push to "A" 1975 "A")
I asked a girl out that I knew but not that well.The first words blurted out of her mouth was" I am not ready to get married yet" I had a WTF moment but I quickly came up to speed on the quirky ideas of the WT.
I remember the same article on dating that even discouraged HOLDING HANDS cause that could lead to SEXXX. There sure were a lot of paranoid young dub sisters running around.
Dating= Marriage
Holding Hands= Might lead to SEXXX
Kissing= Would lead to SEXXX esp if that naughty old tongue was it there
The WT sure had and still has a lot of crackpot ideas on the whole subject.
