has always been a problem with young people in Pentecost. When I was a teenager kids who wouldn't dream of going to a movie or in the case of girls wouldn't think of cutting their hair or wearing makeup would hop in the backseat of a car and get hot-n-heavy not long after shouting their uncut hair down.
I know there are many wonderful conservative Pentecostal young people who don't fit this description but I have to tell you that my boys experience with UPC girls is that they were "freaky" (meaning wild) compared to most of the girls they dated. I knew what they meant because when I was a teen it seemed like since we couldn't do much of anything (almost everything fun was a sin) so many resorted to physical / sexual pleasure.

This is 100% true, I have seen and lived both sides of this fence brother! I remember when I turned 18 it was spring and I was still in High School. Our music director (who was also my friend) asked me if I wanted to go to the strip club with him... Scary stuff...
