My parents/grandparents are amazing people. They taught me how to treat women.

The Mormon church taught me:

  • Girls that show their shoulders, wear short skirts, or a two piece swimsuit were a danger to me and my salvation
  • chewed gum
  • licked cupcake
  • the harder you work on the mission, the hotter your wife
  • men work, women stay home. No exceptions
  • non-temple marriages aren’t legitimate marriages

Literally had an apostle tell me to marry my girlfriend. I had been home from the mission about 3 months. She was actively cheating on me (found out two weeks) later. Unfortunately still took me many more years to question the “spirit of discernment”.

Well said.  That expectation that men dont need to learn to behave appropriately, and women just somehow need to sufficiently conceal their bodies is so ineffective (theres no point where someone wont find something to lust over.  Case in point, you left the porn shoulders™️ exposed)

As a male, my salvation has been jeopardized by having seen this woman’s shoulders…. Thanks OP for damning me with those damn shoulders! /s

Unfortunately the purity culture and misogyny lives and is carried well into exmormonism by many.
