  Becoming a woman...

  i remember when i was around the age of 10 or 11, there was a book that jehovah's witness parents used in family bible study that had two versions (one for male, one for females) or maybe there was one and it just had chapters and i am remembering wrong.

  i do remember vividly having to endure the rather male dominated view of what happens when a young woman enters adolescence and what a young woman has to look forward to in her 'duties' as a loyal wife and mother serving her husband *gags*.

  does anyone remember that?

  "It's quite obvious Ruby that you were draining you nervous energy and your resistance to satans influence was diminished. Or did you just go blind??"
  
  All of the above!
  
  Really, I don't know how I manage now ;)

  Lol!!
  
  Who can forget the 'sex interviews' and 'bovine likenesses'....
  
  Oh man...
  
  It would be far more comical if there weren't actually people who *believed* this stuff!

  Wow!
  
  In searching for more quotes from the Your Youth.. book I found quotes from another JW book called Learn from the Great Teacher:
  
  " It is important that we know what bad things the demons will try to get us to do. So think about it. What bad things did the demons do when they came to earth? -- Before the Flood, they had sex relations with women, something that was not right for angels to do. Today the demons like it when people do not obey God's law about sex relations. Let me ask you, Who only should have sex relations? -- You are right, only married people.
  
  Today some young boys and girls have sex relations, but this is wrong for them. The Bible talks about the male "genital organ," or penis. (Leviticus 15:1-3) The female genital parts are called the vulva. Jehovah created these parts of the body for a special purpose that should be enjoyed only by married people. It makes the demons happy when people do things that are forbidden by Jehovah. For example, the demons like it when a boy and a girl play with each others' penis or vulva. We don't want to make the demons happy, do we? --"

  Isn't amazing that people read that (as well as the JW publication quoted in this thread that I referred to) and *actually* believed it??????
  
  It really staggers my mind.
  
  I mean, I was brought up with the book mentioned above but it was always in my nature to question everything and really not fear going against the grain which is why I was disfellowshipped at such a young age. However, my mother seriously to some extent believed that crap and think of all the people taught this junk who retained that.
  
  It's really insidious the conditioning and brainwashing of such literature meant to influence young people.

  "The "common" cold is quite universal, but this certainly doesn’t mean that you want it, does it? Then what about the claim that masturbation is harmless?"
  
  You gotta love their terrible analogies...

  Yes!!!
  
  Thank you. That was the book Ezekiel3!
  
  Ugh! Reading those passages now after all these years makes me realize even more how insane it was.
  
  Doesn't seem like it borrowed a bit from the book in the links I provided?

  It's really no wonder after being fed that sort of rhetoric at an early age that I left the religion and my house at 17...
  
  I cannot imagine any female actually living like that! and yet, I am sure many lived their lives in such way...yikes.
