These are only three fairly recent cases; there are many, many more, not to mention Joe Smith, whom you all know had at minimum 34 wives, concubines, and kept women, several of whome were young girls, and at least 11 women who were the wives of other living men:

So... Why is this? What's the answer? And why are there always multiple people who hand over their young daughters?

Because they can!

It's one of the lowest ways to get sex, when someone uses religious indoctrination to obtain access.

These losers are getting women (and children) to associate doing whatever they want with divine guidance. A$sh0les.

Also, there is the factor of women willing to hook up with a man because he is powerful or rich. They get status and resources but I have to wonder how they have any self esteem. It's easier to understand the ones who were brainwashed.

Why do people hand over their daughter? I think they consider young women like livestock, which is an undercurrent still in many religions. They want favor with the religious leader and God. They gain status and there is probably some kind of quid pro quo for them. "That'll cost you two virgins!"

Well, in a nutshell, because women and girls are still considered property in many patriarchal communities and have little to no bodily autonomy.

I think it's a form of backwards evolution where a guy gives up his humanity and reverts to primate behavior. It's like he's back in the trees, living the primate male dominance hierarchy. He'll make it a point to bed and breed because that's who he is.

It's not limited to religion. Look at Washington DC.

I think there is a pathology in some men that they don't think they are scamming women and girls into sex--they actually twist it in their head that there is a religious element to it. Unfortunately, they don't get real satisfaction sexually or emotionally so they have to keep "doing it for God."

But, come on, they're getting off under cover of God.

Why are we talking about prepubescent girls, before age 11?


Obviously men are attracted to well developed girls - like we won't notice a 17 year old because it is taboo? It is how we are wired.

Doesn't mean we should pursue them, but obviously some guys will.

Kind of like asking why young women are attracted to rich older men. Was it Nicole Smith who at 26 married that 89 year old rich guy?

'Cause the older girls are wise and experienced enough to have ditched the self-appointed latter-day prophet.

The young are still vulnerable.

Earl Butz, Nixon's Sec of Agriculture, said back men wanted women with a tight pussey.

Yes, it really Happened..

iMo it goes beyond sex...like rape it's more about power and control...how giddy must Joe have been as he inflicted himself into the lives of married people and realized there wasn't a thing they could or would do cuz gawd and jeebus...heady stuff to a narcissist or sociopath...another coup might have been HMK when lap dog Heber bought him some brownie points with Joe...after all he thought nothing more of taking another wife than buying a cow...be it low self western or just believed every word...Mormon women definitely suffered from something...one has to keep in mind perhaps that women every where had few rights...were often physically beaten if insubordinate and had no choice but to tolerate abuse...no support network...prostitution perhaps the only support for independence...we all know how that often ends...I'm old enough to remember women receiving a few light slams wasn't uncommon...was it Gordy or Tom who joked not that long ago about...showing her the back hand...yeah that's the time I'm talking about
