The Sacred Undergarment That Has Mormon Women Buzzing {New Mormon underoos!}
New York Times ^ | 29th May 2025 | Lauren Jackson

Posted on 05/30/2025 1:19:05 AM PDT by Cronos

Some Mormon women are obsessed with something illicit. They’re phoning friends, calling in favors and paying for international shipping to get it: a sacred tank top.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has redesigned its temple garments, which are worn by faithful members under their clothes. The garments are effectively underwear that until recently, looked like white short-sleeve shirts and knee-length shorts. Now, the church has removed the sleeve on some designs, turning them into tank tops.

The church is releasing the tops to its more than 17 million members around the world in phases. Last October, it quietly announced that the new garments would first be available to members in “hot, humid” climates like those in Africa and Asia.

They aren’t sanctioned for wear in the United States yet, but that hasn’t stopped American influencers from sourcing them — and showing them off in recent videos online.

...The garments are an integral part of the faith. They are worn by most faithful adult members as a reminder of covenants they make with God in the church’s temples.

These in linen or cotton would be nice!

I wonder why they don't specify the material - I read that nylon or polyester are also options - ugh, can you imagine wearing polyester underwear?!

Studies have shown that polyester underwear reduces fertility in both men and women...

It’s such a great fit for us the church said.

Not sure it does.

Observant Jews wear a kippa and some wear a tasseled garment.

Very observant Catholics wear scapula which are special pictures and prayers hung by ribbons in the front and back of chest.

Amish women wear coverings.

Different sects of Amish men have specialized beards.

And many other religions have their own clothing or grooming rituals.

Which no one has to explain to you.

I like my girls naked. Don’t give me no plastic saddles. Those folks do too. Can’t swing a dead cat around here with out knocking a horny Mormon guy over. I don’t blame them. Nothing like riding with comfort

I don’t think they’ll be winning any wet t-shirt contests in those.

Did you hear that the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints has purchased the rights to “M&M’s”.

It’s such a great fit for us the church said.

Sacred undergarments????

Aaron’s very decorative vestment came down to his knees. The Lord told him he best make some trousers to wear underneath it; otherwise, “if you bend over and I see your privates I will kill you where you stand.”

Why can't you read the article for what it is:

An opportunity for the New York Slimes to mock religion.

You seem sanctimonious because today it is Mormons. Tomorrow, it might be yours unless, of course, you are an atheist, the official state religion of the New York Slimes or a Muslim, whom they wouldn't dare mock.

Don’t Freemasons have some special underwear or loincloths or something? Is it just for their rituals or everyday?
