A state that scores very high in religiosity and which loudly proclaims their respect for women.
Yeah - that tracks.
Also rated the worst place to live as a woman for over 10 years. They use statistics about pay inequality, violence, and overall happiness. Utah ranks lowest in the nation.
Mormonism and women is pretty toxic. The list could go on for pages but here's a few doozies. I grew up in the cult and escaped after seeing all the bullshit when I was 20 years old.
Since sex outside of marriage is a sin equal to murder... Short courtships and young marriages are highly encouraged. 18-22 is a very common age to marry for girls. It's also common for people to marry after only knowing each other for 6-10 weeks.
Waiting to have kids is strongly discouraged snd babies often arrive 9 months or so after marriage.
Men are the authority figure in the home and women are expect to obey them.
Men are often are assigned unpaid jobs in the church that take over 20+ hours per week leaving the women to take care of everything in the home and kids alone.
Women working is discouraged but culturally okay as long as they feel extra guilty for it.
Women who stay home and pop out half a dozen kids or more are constantly praised.
Mormonism has a massive list of useless tasks that women are supposed to accomplish. They are constantly guilted for not accomplishing them all.
They also have to wear ugly ass special underwear. Seriously it's ugly, look it up.
Damn even good ole Mississippi beats them?
well yea, but most of that is done by white men, and how are we gonna do racist fearmongering if we focus on the crimes of white men?????
Trump isn't focusing on street crime, he himself is the Criminal in Chief.
