![]() ![]() United Planets Cruiser C57D, now more than a year out from Earth Base on a special mission to the planetary system of the great main-sequence star Altair. And so, at last, mankind began the conquest and colonization of deep space. Almost at once there followed the discovery of hyperdrive through which the speed of light was first obtained and later greatly surpassed. By 2200 A.D., they had reached the other planets of our solar system. The Sexless Tribe app and store can be found at the final decade of the 21st Century, men and women in rocket ships landed on the moon. “People think they know what a virgin looks or acts like, so just showing them that we’re out here and we’re cute and we’re living and we’re fun, but we just made a decision in regard to our sexuality.” “I just love being able to allow people to see that there is a different option and really give a new face and voice to what it’s like to live abstinent. “A lot of youth will reach out to me and ask me can I wait and that blows my mind that they think that’s something they have to ask. When I was 13, I needed to know that living an abstinent lifestyle is doable and it’s being done. “If people choose to do that, I don’t have anything to say about it, I just think we’re doing a disservice to the youth. “I feel like in order to make an informed decision with anything you have to be informed of all the options and I think the time that we're living in there’s only one option being pushed and it’s sex,” she said. Shakia insists she isn’t there to judge but “stand as the voice and face and letting people know that there is an option.” “I’m literally just saying a fact that’s true to me, but somehow people are saying I’m imposing my beliefs on other people or I’m shaming people who are non-virgins.” I tell people I’m not here to convince, condemn or convict. “Which blows my mind because if you watch any of my videos. “I do get backlash from videos I make, especially about me being a virgin,” she said. Though she’s gotten no negative feedback about the app, Shakia said people do react negatively to her videos. I didn’t create it only for Christians, I created it for anyone who’s living this lifestyle.” ‘I’m not a virgin can I join? Absolutely,” she said. “Some people ask ‘is it a Christian app?’ It’s not a Christian app. Shakia said the app isn’t exclusively for Christians. “The right person is a man that stands before me, God, friends and family and takes some vows.” I don't know why I made that decision at 13, but as I got older, seeing how casual sex was happening, it was nothing I desired. “I can remember as early as 13 making the decision. “Even though I'm a Christian, my why wasn't initially rooted in God, but it’s matured more over the years and God now is a part of that foundation,” she said. Though a Christian, Shakia said her decision to remain abstinent wasn’t rooted in religion. All over people are tapping in whether it’s on the app, via the store or even a YouTube channel.” “Africa, the UK, India, Australia, I’ve shipped out to Ireland and Israel. Some people will get up at four in the morning just to get on,” she said. “We literally have people from all over the world that will stay up for the events. Though the app is still in beta mode, Shakia says there have been over 8,000 downloads for both parts and people use them globally. “I tell them at night maybe you’re having a little itch, maybe you need to go to the app and listen to a song or a video or a podcast.” Every day they get an encouraging quote to their phone, and they get a late-night check-in just to hold them accountable. “There are events that are hosted in the app every month via Zoom. I realized that they also needed resources and in the beginning of this year I created the resources part of the app and now it’s one big hub. “Then I realized that wasn't enough because people were still DMing me asking do I know any books, or podcast or YouTube channels about abstinence. “In September 2020, I created the community space,” Shakia said. The app consists of two parts: a resource space for abstinence-based material and TST social, a community space where users can create profiles and interact. I came across someone that had created an app and I was like that's what we need: we need a home, we need a place that we can come together and connect.” “I started the t-shirts and then I realized it wasn't enough because people wanted community. ![]()
