My Choice!

My True Love Waits ring... My hands looks ashy but it's not. Haha!

My True Love Waits ring... My hands looks ashy but it

 

This is the choice that I made when I was 12 years old. That’s right! I made the choice. No one forced me to do this and no one is necessarily holding me to it. Of course people are proud of me and do hope that I follow through, but they’re not holding a gun to my head. So, I’m proud of my choice!

I found your blog on WordPress under a True Love Waits search and am interested in learning more about your experiences with True Love Waits. I am a senior at Tufts University in Medford, MA (close to Boston) and am writing my senior thesis on abstinence only education in the United States. I am looking specifically at True Love Waits, as well as the Straight Edge movement (a group of punk rock youth who also abstain from sexual activity). I am focusing most of my research on the use of internet in the two movements, and how the movements are organized.

If you have any interest in talking to me about your experience with True Love Waits, I would really appreciate the opportunity to ask you a few questions about the organization of the movement ( I would not ask you specific questions about your decision to be part of True Love Waits). For example, do you go to meetings? How are the meetings organized? Do youth have leadership positions or do adults?

If you are interested in learning more about what I am researching, please email me back at alyssa.levin_scherz@tufts.edu.

Thank you!
