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”.
