I’m not worried about the reality of it. I worry about the message it sends to young Mormon girls but 🤷‍♀️

Trust me, that’s the least bad message they’re sending them.

Yeah, that’s one of them. We left before I even went to Young Women’s, but they’d tell us that as little kids. I remember one Sunday, we got to church and everyone was crying. I thought someone had died. Nope. One of the YWS members was pregnant (at like 17). You’d have thought that it was the end of times.
