Angelina I have to admit that I’m in a more authoritarian mood than usual, to the point that today I feel like it should be the default that all people, but especially single women, be kept under lock and key unless there is a good reason not to! I’d wear my belt myself today if I hadn’t promised Goody I wouldn’t wear it for a year. Maybe being unbelted makes me crueller!
Single again chastity
Angelina because a divorced woman is definitely not a virgin anymore
Do you think that nobody cares about sexual activity of a single non-virgin girl?
Saintprudence but anyone who believes in banning masturbation could easily follow the logic that post-divorce masturbation is out of bounds
No masturbation, but sex only. Of course, you don't agree with me.
Renita No masturbation, but sex only. Of course, you don't agree with me.
No, nor does your keyholder, whose opinion seems to hold sway here. She wants to prevent slutty behavior and defines masturbation as part of that, so she takes responsibility to prevent it. It is true that the shield serves other safety purposes, but those can be fulfilled without locking it. The shield lock keeps you away from where you shouldn’t be touching, though!
At the time we thought it was not going to work, that it was an exaggeration...
It's not that we regret it either, that our children are all wonderful, but, knowing what we know today, we should have tried.
Today I do not see a realistic way to approach the issue, and honestly, I think it would be more harm than good.
As I said, modern life often collides with what is positive from my point of view.
Of course, @Joh , everyone can have their universe and opinions, I give mine which is relatively traditional.

If everyone did that, it would at least make things a little less bad for the involuntary ones. no seriously, I like you, but right now you're a bit too authoritarian 
Renita Do you think that nobody cares about sexual activity of a single non-virgin girl?
I didn't say that, only that virginity is no longer an argument then
Megan Of course everyone is different.
So, even if @Christine will disagree with me, I see it this way that a failed relationship or marriage must always be both to blame. Of course someone can have made the big mistake, but that didn't happen without reason.
Angelina I see it this way that a failed relationship or marriage must always be both to blame.
So it’s only logical that both bear the consequences of the belt!
Saintprudence Was this ever taken into account when you were belted?
It's not related.
Angelina because if she doesn't want to protect you
Sorry, protect from what?
Angelina does your mother think so too?
More or less.
Hello, I have been reading the thread and your situation seems terrible to me.
I have a pretty conservative view of almost everything, I'm not opposed to progress, but I think a lot of things were better and easier when I was younger.
What I cannot do is try to impose this on the people who love me and who have a certain dependence on me.
When everyone has the same vision, it's hard enough, and I've had arguments at home and my sister-in-law @Tere the same. And, to give an example, my situation is like when I start a diet, I open the fridge and take an ice cream. My wife sees me and scolds me. Yes, I know that I am on a diet, that ice cream is not good for me, I know that my wife is right and that she does it for my health but it annoys me. It would be a simil with the belt in my house.
In your case, with another vision of things, I don't understand how your mother can do that.
Christine Sorry, protect from what?
Protect you from the urges that the belt prevents you from acting on.

Saintprudence That's the paradox thing ablut chastity. The belt thats aimed to prevent you doing things but it also makes you want to do such things in first place. Of course, you can also want to do those things by nature, eventually, that's tge only way it actually makes sense as a tool for prevention.
The question is if growing up belted actually steals you the chance to learn a responsitive way to deal with those things.
Max9 certainly, growing up in a religious “chastity belt” constructed from guilt and indoctrination did not help me with learning responsible use of self-pleasure.

I doubt it. I think, having sex is a normal human thing and everybody knows how to do it. And if you don't know how it feels to masturbate, then you don't miss it. Thats my sight, maybe I'm wrong, maybe not 
Kris This is why one chastity belt school of thought holds that one masturbation is too many, and two or more should be prevented at all costs.

Sorry I didn't understood that. Can you please explain?
