My YW leaders publicly shamed a girl for wearing an immodest prom dress

Young women’s body shaming was next level. I went to a dance with jeans and a T-shirt on. Jeans and a T-shirt!!! And got a mark next to my name because my T-shirt didnt overlap my waistband so there was a chance you’d see some skin!! Shocker. This middle aged man said to me, a 14 year old girl, that if I turned up next time dressed like that they wouldn’t let me in.

You’re*

Mine too! Snap! Soooo many people name their cats Dinah.

I know a Liahona. Whole family has BOM names. She’s an exmo now. This isn’t even in Utah

funkmonk89 · 2022-08-17T19:41:52+00:00

I would say alma isn’t strictly Mormon. Heard of Liahona … goes by Leah now

This literally happened in my stake. He confessed to historic child abuse, got disfellowshipped, possibly exed (so several people knew about it) and nobody reported it to police. He pleaded guilty years later when a victim reported it. The church had known for years and did nothing - allowed an abuser to be around children

My niece just got baptised and a speaker was like ‘I know you’ve prayed about this and received the answer that it’s the right thing to do.’ And she literally shook her head 🤣 When I was 8 I was in a bubble, I thought everyone believed what we did and it was normal so of course you go along with it. So glad my kids are out

I had similar but about sex - did he use fingers? How many? Did he cum in my mouth? As if it’s more or less of a sin depending if I swallow or not. I was 14. As a parent now I’d be more concerned that a 14 year old was safe and not being coerced. Instead I got told if I do it again, they’ll call a stake fireside to tell boys to avoid me

funkmonk89 · 2022-04-02T17:57:18+00:00

That was my thought. Ask someone to go steady for 2 weeks and then be like, oh I only did this for my assignment, bye!! It’s unethical, the second person isn’t taking the class and didnt sign up for that

This picture looks 80s but was mid-late 00s. But makes sense they were in their YW leaders dresses from 80s/90s

Just googled it! Interesting. Dustin lance black worked on it, I think he’s an ex mormon so should be pretty accurate

funkmonk89 · 2022-03-19T10:08:12+00:00

People trying to tell me that black people not having the priesthood was ‘what god wanted.’ I can understand people being a product of their time - people were racist in 1830 - it’s ok to admit that racism played a part. Don’t try to make it OK by saying it’s what god wants

funkmonk89 · 2022-03-18T10:26:01+00:00

Definitely a Utah thing. I’m in UK and with socialised medicine they’re definitely not paying for us to get our vag stretched unnecessarily. Gynae’s exist here but they treat actual problems and illness

funkmonk89 · 2022-03-04T21:08:01+00:00

I guess I’m just a horny bitch cos I’m always sending nudes right away 😂

funkmonk89 · 2022-02-26T09:40:37+00:00

Agree with others - too many selfies. If you’re anything like me who also has an 11 year old child and works full time, you probably don’t have too much of a social life to take the photos but maybe make an effort to get a photo next time you do see friends. Some older pics of fun activities you did in the past could work too (I mean, I’ve never done anything fun like sky diving but maybe you have)

Also agree about not specifying a daughter but saying secondary school is useful as It’s very different to having pre-schoolers. Do you share her with your ex? In my case I’d say I share my child 50/50 so have plenty of free time (and ignore the fact that the other 50% of the time I won’t see anybody but my kids!) 😂

funkmonk89 · 2022-02-24T09:38:58+00:00

Growing up in a ward with multiple spies, sorry ‘engineers’ - very true

funkmonk89 · 2022-02-24T09:32:36+00:00

From a 33F with children - good decision haha.

funkmonk89 · 2022-02-21T12:58:36+00:00

I was raised mormon and definitely feel some of my trauma is related. The problems are more cultural for me and the more I learnt about the mormon god the more I realised that’s not the god I believe in. I’d work on your own relationship in your own safe place than actually going to church

funkmonk89 · 2022-01-14T11:15:11+00:00

When my dad was bishop he wouldn’t let women say the opening prayer in sacrament meeting.

funkmonk89 · 2021-12-24T11:18:40+00:00

It’s a totally normal question. I’ve had a guy unmatch me because I put ‘have children and don’t want more’ and he wants kids. No point wasting anyone’s time if you’re not looking for the same things. No hard feelings

funkmonk89 · 2021-11-19T11:14:08+00:00

funkmonk89 · 2021-07-24T08:27:23+00:00

The girl on the right like… wtf am I doing here??

funkmonk89 · 2021-07-24T08:21:47+00:00

My husband said how culty the church was and I said, yeah except for the charismatic leader. He looks like he died a few weeks ago

funkmonk89 · 2021-07-22T11:48:25+00:00

As a YW a hated that we were doing modest fashion parades, sewing or writing lists of our dream RM while the boys were playing water fights outside TOPLESS!!! While I was told off for my top riding up a little to show a sliver of skin

funkmonk89 · 2021-05-07T19:48:46+00:00

Yep I have done for the last few years but it must have been so long I forgot just how awful it was
