As promised, your daily dose of creepiness
Here's the article, and here's the offending quote:

"Purity Balls," which fathers attend with their teenage daughters. "We think the relationship between fathers and their daughters is the key," she told me. At the purity ball, a father gives a "purity ring" to his daughter — a symbol of the promise she makes to maintain her virginity for her future husband. Then, during her marriage ceremony, the daughter gives the ring to her new husband. Abstinence Clearinghouse's Web site advertises the purity ball as an event "which celebrates your 'little girl' and her gift of sexual purity."

That last bit is straight from the Right's own literature. It sounds like it was written by some myspace.com-trolling pederast.

Eww.
