Oneida Silverware Cult

The Oneida silverware company was started by a religious cult that practiced promiscuous sex. They practiced free love and would have menopausal women train the young males how to not ejaculate during sex as a method of abstinence. Their leader, John Humphrey Noyes, reserved the virgin girls for himself and his cronies. They also made silverware. Eventually the cult dissolved and became a silverware company that is still in business today.
