#PresidentOaks used his #LDS #GeneralConference talk to explain that personal freedom does not apply to underwear. The map he shared reminds me that church leaders continue to demand 24/7 garment compliance without accommodation even in tropical regions of the world.

Fwiw, having my first sealing canceled was one of the greatest things. My bishop asked if I wanted it, facilitated it, and start-to-finish, it took about 6 weeks. I had no intention or prospect to be remarried at the time. Grateful for all that. #GeneralConference #LDSconf
I appreciate #ElderCarpenter for daring to be open about sealing cancellation, a fraught topic, but he did not address the gender disparity in sealing cancellation policy, which is an important issue that needs to be addressed in the #LDS church. #GeneralConference
#ElderCarpenter says no one will be trapped in a sealing to an “unrepentant” former spouse, even without a cancellation. I think he was also saying they will not trapped with a repentant person they still want to divorce, but this part was less clear. #GeneralConference
Amazing Grace in #GeneralConference? Is this an omen? Maybe the new hymnal will finally bring this Christian classic into the #LDS repertoire?
#SisterSpannaus says if we love the truth we will seek it, and if we seek it we will find it. #GeneralConference
So far #ldsconf seems to be hyper- focused on telling @Ch_JesusChrist members to be better at covenant-keeping, temple-attending, garment-wearing, meeting-attending all for celestial and temporal blessings. Not a lot about being Christlike.
I had forgotten this gem of a lyric: “Oh, what songs we'll employ As the heart swells with joy, When our Heavenly Parents we meet!” #LDS #GeneralConference
This week in 1984, the RLDS Church (now called Community of Christ) announced that women could be ordained to the priesthood. It was a huge change—one that surprised many. But it didn’t come out of nowhere. Historians @theartdoc (Nancy Ross) & David Howlett explain. @RNS
If remembering Christ is the goal, is the garment the best strategy? It reminds #SisterDennis of Christ, but it also distracts many other people from thinking of Christ due to discomfort, pain or resentment. #GeneralConference
#ElderHamilton foreshadowed an emphasis on garment-wearing, & we only had to wait for the 2nd talk of #GeneralConference. However, I appreciate that #SisterDennis focused on the intended symbolism of the garment & did not fixate on daily compliance rules or women’s yoga pants.
After all the talk about #LDS women & the priesthood authority we supposedly have, it’s an interesting contrast to begin #GeneralConference by reading a long list of names of male General Authorities. No LDS women is honored with the title of General Authority. #LDSconf
The Saint of Sexuality - exponentii.org/blog/the-saint… - I’m here to tell you: it benefits no one to promote ignorance. Even you may suffer the consequences of that.

did a fun little photographic poem for @TheExponent on “hope, head, & bird nests,” but many of the print issues mysteriously went missing or were damaged
baffling and tragic (and possibly a federal offense!). in the meantime,
if you’re a subscriber and your issue never came or arrived damaged, please do let them know here: forms.gle/mSGczki6w12JtX…
I’ve been waiting on my copy of Exponent for weeks bc I’m so excited to share my “Moonlight Catfish” essay that reveal such deeply vulnerable parts of me. Most copies were “lost” &/or intentionally destroyed in mail transit-pages ripped out, pieces cut, etc. @TheExponent
Sucks that ppl are absolutely terrible and awful 😞 In reference to my essay “Moonlight Catfish,” @TheExponent hauntingly asks, “Was it because this issue published a personal essay about ‘Black, Women, Unashamed’ who loved each other?”
I am reading this memoir that comes out in February and it is STUNNING! It’ll be on the lists for 2024, for sure. The narrative alongside recipes are making so concrete the MAGIC of books, of honoring the dead. #slownoodles

Humans learn by “modeling” behavior from birth. So when women & their children in religious congregations look to the stand & only see men, they are conditioned to not value women’s voices & views. If men have any decency, they will let women lead equally. sltrib.com/religion/2023/…

I've largely enjoyed @mckaycoppins book Romney: A Reckoning, but he mischaracterized Exponent II and the important work they were doing while Romney was a stake president in Boston. They weren't "agitating for ordination." They were raising awareness about abuse.
Heather Sundahl and @KatieLudlowRich: In "Romney: A Reckoning," McKay Coppins misses the mark on Mormon feminism. trib.al/GJMKror
