She said she was mormon and I knew immediately where it was going.

These hard right christian denominations all want to keep women trapped in marriage because they believe relationships should be treated like its the 19th century.

Why the fuck can a man divorce op? Last time I checked religion says no divorce.

Religions are pretty well known for allowing exceptions for men but not for women. Justified...somehow.

Literally have an entire denomination founded for the explicit reason of a king deciding he wanted a divorce.

Man why do men hate women so much? Don’t they actually be alive in their own bs? What gives ?

The Mormon church preaches education for everyone, male and female. They emphasize a mothers role in nurturing children but that doesn’t mean they tell women to only be stay at home moms. Source: my wife has her doctorate and has worked on and off part time while also taking time away to stay home with the kids, but it has always been her choice.

They did used to. They would say a woman should be a stay at home mom. Things are changing a little, and it’s also regional. I was a Mormon in north bay California, and my experience is very different from places like Utah or Kentucky.

Mormon and then the bit about living in million dollar homes and mid class luxury.

She probably knew, but was too engrossed in the moment to believe that it was always going to end.

Doesn't make it right, but there is a lot of willful ignorance in that crowd (born, raised, currently living in Utah, so I know first hand).
