Modern Republicans encourage unmarried girls to keep their legs crossed until they have wrangled a ring, expensive ceremony and tropical vacation out of a boy. Perhaps we should employ more Biblically authentic inducements for chastity.
For example, let a girl know that God's clever incentive program for abstinence involves having non-virgin wives killed by their alacritous neighbors. (Deuteronomy 22:13-21) I have a hunch this might encourage a young lady to muster an emphatic "no" more often than, say, simply offering a congratulatory citation on real parchment or a white polyblend t-shirt that says something vaguely encouraging about love waiting for jewelry.
