Experience

Mr Hogg, for the affirmative, accused the negative of vagueness and sentimentality. He said unchastity included other sexual experiences, such as masturbation.

The speaker said that he was not concerned whether chastity was outmoded or not in the past, but whether it was outmoded now.

"We are concerned with what people do now."

Today many youngsters masturbated. Repression resulted in buggery, homosexuality and so forth. In New Zealand the vicious concept of chastity had been discarded.
