WARNING
If you can’t handle the word FUCK, then stop right here. If you can’t handle the truth of how women are oppressed and violated within the doctrine and Patriarchal organizational hierarchy of the “Christian” church, then STOP right here. This is MY wall, this is MY post, this is MY story, this is MY voice, this is MY experience, this is MY truth! This is not YOUR wall, YOUR post, YOUR story, YOUR voice, YOUR experience, or YOUR truth. ARE WE CLEAR? You may proceed…I dare you.
The following quote was taken from the March 2014 Ensign, the official magazine for adult members of the Mormon Church, written by “Elder” Ted R. Callister, a member of the Presidency of the Seventy, a high ranking group within the top leadership patriarchy of LDS Church, which I was a member of until removing my records for membership at the age of 21.
“The dress of a woman has a powerful impact upon the minds and passions of men. If it is too low or too high or too tight, it may prompt improper thoughts, even in the mind of a young man who is striving to be pure. Men and women can look sharp and be fashionable, yet they can also be modest. Women particularly can dress modestly and in the process contribute to their own self-respect and to the moral purity of men. In the end, most women get the type of man they dress for.”

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? HOW DARE WE AS WOMEN PROMPT IMPROPER THOUGHTS IN MEN STRIVING TO BE PURE IN THE EYES OF GOD! HOW DARE WE AS WOMEN TEMPT THE PASSIONS IN MEN STRIVING TO BE PURE IN THE EYES OF GOD? HOW DARE WE AS WOMEN CORRUPT THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF MEN STRIVING TO BE PURE IN THE EYES OF GOD BY CHOOSING TO CLOTHE OURSELVES IN A MANNER CONSIDERED “TOO HIGH” or “TOO TIGHT” FOR THE EYES OF MEN STRIVING TO BE PURE IN THE EYES OF GOD? HOW DARE WE AS WOMEN FAIL TO HONOR & RESPECT THE PURSUIT OF MORAL PURITY IN SUCH HONORABLE AND GOD ORDAINED MEN?
I mean after all…WE WOMEN are the ones who FORCE these men to stare and fantasize, FORCE these men to sin with passion, FORCE these men to act on desire, FORCE these men to become sexually impure, as a result of our morally depraved sexually degrading ways…right? And men of course have NO power, NO self control, NO accountability, as they stare and fantasize and sin and act and become sexually impure thanks to the morally depraved sexually degrading way in which we as women present ourselves…right? Ohhhhh….that’s right. Silly sinner feminist me! Of course we women are to blame for the sexual impurity of God’s men! Of course the morally depraved sexually degrading ways in which we choose to clothe ourselves are the cause of sexual transgression in God’s men!
OF COURSE WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MORALLY DEPRAVED SEXUALLY DEGRADING THOUGHTS, ACTIONS, AND SINS OF GOD’S MEN! THESE ARE GOD’S MEN, HONORABLE MEN, ORDAINED MEN, STRIVING FOR PURITY IN THE EYES OF GOD!
AND DID YOU KNOW LADIES…AND UNDERSTANDING THIS MAY HELP EXPLAIN ALL OF THOSE HORRIBLE MEN YOU SEEM TO BE ATTRACTING…SO LISTEN UP BECAUSE WHAT I AM ABOUT TO SAY MAY CHANGE YOUR LIFE!
DO YOU WANT TO FIND THE KIND OF MAN THAT YOU HAVE ALWAYS DREAMED OF?

THE KIND OF MAN YOU DRESS FOR.

BASICALLY MEANS THAT YOU ARE ONLY…

How DARE you claim this the word of God.
