this is really just a wild guess on my part, and maybe one of you with a better knowledge of church history can fill in the gaps for me here but here's one hypothesis:
In the early days of the church, didn't women greatly outnumber men in the highest leadership circles? Is it possible we paint them too quickly as submissive and weak? I would think to the contrary, these are women who usually overcame quite a bit to make it to SLC.
In the last 30 years, how many general authorities have you heard of getting divorced? I can't think of one and I was pretty active in the church for over a decade. Is it possible the GAs are really just puppets for their wives? Isn't it at all strange for a group of men to be constantly so worried about lust and masturbation, perfectly harmless by themselves, imo, but can severely inflame the jealousy of an insecure woman?
Peppermints in the parlor, anyone?
