It would have been absolutely unthinkable for Theresa to have not been a virgin...daughters were chaperoned and protected from male influence before marriage. Does no one know anything anymore?
Besides that, we have a pretty frank and clear description of St. Theresa's life.
Grrr.
This is really outrageous. The left and non-religious among us just cannot stand that we have anyone we look up to.
My confirmation name is Theresa and so named because of this particular saint and I am taking this quite personally.
