But you guys will put out after Church, right?

They did don some crazy underwear in anticipation of the event. Also, polyamory is definitely on the table if they're true to their founder's beliefs and actions.

Don't sully polyamory with the misogyny that is polygamy. They want multiple wives to have multiple women to control

I don't think polygamy has to be misogynistic, although I agree that's the way its been overwhelmingly applied throughout recorded history. It could hypothetically be misandrist if power dynamics had the opposite gender polarity. I think the core issue is the power imbalance being expressed in the construction of a harem. Anyway, I think of polyamory as the broad term and polygamy as an unfortunate subset of it, designed to legally and unilaterally enforce an inequitable and exploitive type of polyamorous relationship by members of one gender against the members of another. That's a pretty broad generalization of gender, sex, and orientation dynamics, but I'm not an expert in the field. I assume there's still some kind of conventional, ontological hierarchy with corresponding terminology. I think that's what I was reaching for.

I've got nothing against their kind per se, but do they have to shove it down our throats?

Kinda. The most powerful, fastest growing and largest religions seem to depend on aggressive proselytizing.

The problem is they are Mormon so they can’t save your soul

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I don't know. There's got to be at least one decent Morman cobbler.

GOBBLE GOBBLE? What is wrong with these subtitles. GABBA GABBA WE ACCEPT YOU! ONE OF US!

Sorry. It's the best I could find on short notice. I thought it was "Gooble gobble."

What is it with Mormons and the name Becca? If I count all the Mormon Beccas I've met, then counted this girl, she wouldn't even be on counted on my hands.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Rebecca is a beautiful name IMO, but it's jewish (like etymologically) right?

[–] nelly_man@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, it's from the Torah or Old Testament and is the name of Isaac's wife. The name itself comes from the Hebrew for "to tie firmly" or "to bind."

Look, we’re all looking for a unicorn. This seems like one of the least effective ways to do it.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Counterpoint: Unicorns famously love virgins

[–] Grimy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

If you are young enough, church and tinder end up serving the same use so the concept isn't that crazy.

They both have different right and left hand. It's creepy as fuck.

Lol, they are looking for at least a third (at the mildest kink), no preferences on the gender.
