I wanted to reply to this comment in my now closed post.
"As a convert, married to a TBM, I never considered the religion reducing me to a "breeder" nor was my husband and I remote. We were a partnership and worked together."
http://exmormon.org/phorum/read.php?2,1771140,1771957#msg-1771957Mormonism is always harping on getting married. It is what they do. And I'm guilty of associating this with becoming God's breeders. My parents were all about this and thought that was what they were supposed to do - marry and make the jewels in their crowns - kids.
And Mormonism is still promoting this idea. Look how they spin the side of not wanting marriage.
"Read the following statements that reflect how some people may feel about marriage:
•
“Being successful in my career is very important to me. I don’t want to divide my attention between my career goals and marriage.”
•
“I do not want to commit to a long-term relationship. I worry about making a decision that I will later regret.”
•
“Marriage would tie me down. I wouldn’t be able to do whatever I wanted.”
•
“I know that marriage is the most important decision I will ever make, and I look forward to it.”
"

One blade is a penis and the other a womb. What these holy partnership scissors are used for is anyone's guess. But Mormonism definitely wants people to start their little factories running like a pair of scissors.
Edit to add the fact that they are asking people this question.
"How could a pair of scissors be like a husband and wife striving to obtain eternal life?"
I have no freaking idea.
