Such selfish "affirmations" are too rarely balanced by open, honest, and integrative affirmations (made by generous and gracious lovers) who help young people grow into sexual relationships which are balanced, healthy, open, honest and supportive of the integrities of other people and their communities. In the absence of truly integrative affirmations (made by generous and gracious lovers) the selfish disintegrative affirmations tend to dominate to the advantage of domineering people. When domineering people dominate religious groups with mutually exclusive claims of superiority --- young people are tragically mislead into unhealthy sexual relationships. They lack open and honest conversations with adults about the risks and the pleasures of truly open and honest sexual relationships. It is no surprise that they make many mistakes --- because of the lack of healthy leadership by adults in regards to how to become involved in healthy intimate relationships, and healthy sexual relationships.
