Did you watch the video? These women claim they were abused, emotionally and otherwise. They were no longer “allowed” to have a self. Everything about their “lives” was about the “them” of the group. These things contradict what Old Mountain Man stated about polygamy not being abusive to women; it is. They said they were like dead inside. That’s abuse.

The women were there to serve the man like slaves in a harem...

White slavery...

the moslems use to do that that...

Joseph Smith had more than 30 “wives” that he committed adfultery with...even the legal wives of other men

and under-age girls....that’s rape..and sexual abuse..

Brigham Young had about 50 “wives”...and also some were very young...

Both of them were sexual predators...

They have a lot to answer for...

One of the women in the video had 14 children...

They were treated worse than brood mares...

And here’s a question..

If the idea behind the “plural wives” is to have multiple children, would it not behove the mormons to marry the ypoung women to young strong men instead of unhelthy old guys ???

The children of young men would be healthier and stronger than the children of middle-aged guys past their prime...

Survival of the fittest always relies on the mating of the abliest to the abliest...not too young females to males with suspect sperm volume and quality..

It would appear that mormons systematically reject the wrong group of males from the gene pool...

A little forthought would greatly improve the herd of mormons ..

Ah...

Yes....I agree with you. OMm is wrong on this one.

I gave him a couple of opportunities to change his position but he didn't sieze on them.

But...Why would a non-FLDS Mormon defend polygamy as being non-abusive?

What I actually said was that anyone who equated plural marriage and child abuse needs professional help. Plural marriage is illegal in the United States. Child abuse is both illegal and immoral and dastardly. Now if you and your ilk care to make some more lies about what I said, go ahead.
