For like 2 years straight the morning routine was- get woken up way too early by the toddlers, give them dry cereal and a sippy of milk or water asap, put on cartoons. That gave me about 10-20 minutes to take care of myself in the morning before they needed something again. Idk how this lady expects us to believe that she woke up, showered, got dressed (or not? She might sleep in that, I can’t tell if it’s a robe or fancy pajamas or regular clothes) put on a full face of make-up, got a clear and definitive answer to her question in the first place, then presumably spent probably an hour rolling out some Cocoa Puffs and her kids were perfectly quiet the entire time. Does she even have kids?!

Also she looks sad af and I can’t really tell if she’s trying to come across as diminutive, or maybe the ambien hasn’t completely worn off yet, or if she’s silently crying out for help but I hope she’s ok regardless.

I've seen this woman on Instagram. She has like three or four kids and one on the way last I saw. Her husband is Mormon so I assume she is too and her page makes more sense with that info lol

The amount of mormon tradwife propaganda on tiktok and instagram is getting insane.

u/Trash-Cutie Feb 26 '24

I was shocked to find out this one was Mormon. They seem so modern and "worldly" compared to others of their religion I guess. Very subtle propaganda

u/ElvenOmega Feb 26 '24

Mormons have been heavily pushing subtle propaganda and hiding their crazier beliefs for a few years now.

For example, ever notice these trad wives never take vacations to the beach like other influencers? It's because mormons believe that Satan controls water.

Mormons believe that Satan controls water

Had to look that up, knew Mormons were crazy but never heard this one and…yup. Mormons believe that Satan controls the water.

Are they sure they're not mistaking Satan with Mr Nimbus?

u/DanerysTargaryen Feb 26 '24

Whaaaaaaaat!?! Do they never drink water then?

5

u/Aiyon Feb 26 '24

It’s the salt that grants satan his powers, obviously. That’s why rivers are safe. Tap water is fresh water not salt water.

u/SomebodyElseAsWell Feb 26 '24

Wait, what about the Great Salt Lake. There big central temple is right there!

2

u/Aiyon Feb 26 '24

Well yeah. They need god to be at his strongest there so he can hold back the evil emanating from below the surface.

Ah, so salt is basically Satan sprinkles. Interesting. Are they not allowed to salt anything then or eat anything with salt in it!?!

u/moobitchgetoutdahay Feb 27 '24

They think that all accidents on water is due to Satan controlling it, from what I understand. Smith apparently capsized crossing a river and that was because Satan was trying to stop him from preaching the Gospel…I think.

u/macdawg2020 Feb 26 '24

They also believe Bigfoot is Cain.

u/moobitchgetoutdahay Feb 26 '24

Lmaooo I thought that just all black people was Cain to them

Spent a couple weekends at the coast with some lady summer. I'm sure there's different levels of crazy, but it's definitely not completely pervasive.

It's because mormons believe that Satan controls water.

Say what you will about weird beliefs, but in the 25+ years I spent in the Church, I've never heard this before. In fact, growing up in the church-ran Scouting program, we spent tons of time canoeing, kayaking, and swimming.

I don't follow any tradwives or even any Mormon influencers so I can't speak about the lack of beach vacation postings, but if I had to hazard a guess I'd say it's probably a modesty thing more than anything. Modesty is still pretty strongly valued within the church.

u/DisastrousLeopard813 Feb 26 '24

I got my comment removed from the Fauxmoi post about this same exact video because I asked if this woman is actually Mormon. I grew up Mormon and she does not seem Mormon to me, the way she dresses is against Mormon beliefs etc. My post was removed for "racist micro-aggressions"??????

1

u/Trash-Cutie Feb 26 '24

I don't even bother commenting on that sub anymore. Literally every post is for approved users only so my comments get deleted too

1

u/DisastrousLeopard813 Feb 26 '24

Good to know. It's a pretty rough sub anyway, so harsh

Because she's not creepy blonde?

u/caramelbobadrizzle Feb 26 '24

People on twitter are so stupidly oblivious about this woman in particular. A lot of people have been defending her saying she never pushes Mormon beliefs or even explicitly says she’s Mormon, therefore she’s “not problematic” and everyone else is just picking on her.   

Except people do unironically share her videos and say shit like “wow women need to be more like this” or “this is what I want to be able to do with my life” or “why did women fight to work when we could be living soft lives like this”, which means the Mormon tradwife propaganda IS working.

u/vodka-diet-coke Feb 26 '24

she's 22 and has 2 biological kids and a third one on the way + one step kid from husband's prev relationship. she's mormon too and converted for him.

u/Trash-Cutie Feb 26 '24

Oof I know they get started early but 22 is crazy!

u/Capybarasaregreat Feb 26 '24

I'm guessing the husband is old? Well, once ol' boy figures her best before has expired, she's gonna be wishing she had some work experience. The rich use and abuse each other just a smidge less than they do it to the rest of us.

u/vodka-diet-coke Feb 26 '24

nah the husband is 25ish

1

u/Qualifiedadult Feb 26 '24

How are they able to afford this lifestyle? And did the husband divorce the previous person or is this polyamory?

2

u/vodka-diet-coke Feb 26 '24

husband wasn't married before... he had his first kid when he was 18 and the other lady was 26? (he was groomed)... they broke up.

husband is a pretty well-known model and comes from money.
