Purity balls themselves are kind of disturbing. Engaging in sexual activity should be a personal choice. It is societies responsibility to teach children the possible outcomes of sexual activity so they can make an informed decisions. Celebrating not engaging in sexual activity makes children think that these activities are bad and should be avoided.
They don’t want children to be educated about sexual activity because that usually is correlated with effective family planning, which means fewer children, which means women having more time for personal empowerment rather than simply being vessels for childbirth, which again means fewer children. Fewer children means fewer minds to convert to the religion that motivates the whole exercise. Many ‘successful’ religions aggressively propagate themselves, even if it’s at the expense of the well-being of the believers themselves.

That, plus these scumbags are all about foisting their hangups on the rest of us.
