    LadyGunnar got a reaction from Anddenex in Mass Shootings   
    A gun is a tool. Nothing more or less. People have lost touch with their basic humanity.  There have been mass killings from the dawn of time. We hear about it because it suits the news to be anti gun.  People wants us like sheep. Helpless and following where they lead.

    How is there any sense of humor in this? 
    Being called into the Bishop's office and being told that I should date this boy and use the idea of marriage at a later time to get to go on a mission. This was after I said that I had no desire to ever date him.  I was told to do it anyway and help him go on a mission.  I was 17.  My dad talked to the bishop about. He was sure that I heard it wrong. No. I didn't.  They had words about it.  My dad came out so upset and told that the church is true but some of people are not.

    I hated the modesty lessons growing up.   No one should be taught that they are responsible for someone else's thoughts.  I would wear a tighter shirt or dress the next week after the modesty lessons.  It's  not my job to keep the boy's thoughts  clean. It's theirs.

    I was told that as a teenager. It was my job to dress in such a way that the boys didn't get turned on.  I was told that by the Bishop, young women's leaders.  My dad told that they they were full of crap and to not listen to them. I guess it was my fault that I was born with the genes I was.
     I have dealt with men/boys coming on to me since I was 14. I could dress down, no make up, sports bras, baggy clothes and it still happened.  I was told that it was my fault for being pretty and that I needed to be extra careful how I dressed. 
    I was told by another Bishop to use my looks to get boys on missions. To tell them that we had a chance if they went on a mission. That I was their best tool to get the boys to serve.  It all kinda runs together.

    LadyGunnar got a reaction from Anddenex in 1 in 4 Women have abortions   
    I think they do. I know that when my daughter was stillborn and I elected to be induced, it was counted as an abortion.  Makes me sick to think of that. I could have waited for my body to go into labor naturally, BUT because I couldn't handle that idea, it's an abortion because  I elected to end the pregnancy.  
    My sister was induced at 18 weeks. her baby had been dead for 2 weeks. It was also counted as an abortion.  
     
     They need to be better with the wordings. Chosing to end a pregnancy with a dead baby shouldn't count as an abortion.

    I think unless you are one of the two people in the couple, you shouldn't ask about babies. I had so many things said to me about it. Once was during a miscarriage, I wasn't very nice about it. I was told all sorts of horrible things by peope who thought they knew about my life. It's not something that I advertised.  I felt like failure and didn't  need to tell anyone my struggle to conceive and stay pregnant.  It's no one's business. 
     It's hard to not be able to have kids. It's harder in the church.

    The people that I know who are depressed would not go to a doctor if they thought their guns would be taken away. They would ignore problems and lie to keep their guns. This would make things worse, in my opinion.
