I am actually shocked so few people have heard of this.
I am not shocked because many people Christians or not have not heard of this. I was taught from my grandmother also and teachers of the bible. I was also told about a ritual that some females will go through to rid the different spirits from the men they slept with prior to marriage. Sex is a very intimate and spiritual act and we have to remember that it is one of the greatest gifts we can provide to our mates.

With all due respect to your grandmother, that is just plain stupid. Sounds like one of those ridiculous old wives tales. Guess that means that Sandra Bullock and Elin Nordegren are now ruined doesnt it? They are now serial cheaters.

Why would you even bother to start a post on such a ridiculous old wives tale? Stupid. That was very disrespectful what you said about the person's grandmother. How do you dis someones grandmother and say no disrespect? I guess you don't have one so you don't respect anyone elses. very tasteless!

Default When you sleep with a man you take on their spirits!

When he moves in, he brings his liquor cabinet?

Nice.

Oh no! Does that mean that if I sleep with a man, and give up my virginity, I will become a lesbian?

I think your Gramma knows exactly what she is talking about but may have had trouble expressing her knowledge.
She loves you and doesn't want your spirit damaged in any way, shape or form.
She doesn't want you to be used and one with what she knows could be an evil spirit.
I don't know how to explain it either but I know it is true.
There are what we consider to be nice people but thay carry around evil spirits.

I'm not saying it's true, just that I've heard of it before.
I have a coworker who always speaks of soul ties during sex.
Which is why as cool as a person I think she is, even if I left the company I would not ever ask her out.

Is your grandma a Scientologist or Taoist? I ask because this is similar to what Scientologist believe with "spirits" being present with people. Also, some schools of Taoism believe that men and women are healthier and live longer by exchanging/joining each others "essence" (yin and yang) from making love (not orgasming - men).

No such thing as spirits. This is just a nonsensical superstition.
