Well, I think I'm in love with this Amish woman. Photographed by Thierry Le Goues. <img src="http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/2136/tp66ym1.jpg" width=600/>
This. From my experience with these women, they are complete freaks. The smallest touch will drive them crazy.
"knew" a Mormon chick a long time ago.......she had no problem with pre-marital sex. She wouldn't drink alcohol, but she smoked weed like a chimney. I'm pretty sure.........like with any individual of any group.....it depends on the person.
That's a great image. I love a good black and white photograph. I had a Nikon FTn back in the day and developed my own black and white shots. Thanks for showing that. Damn, she's beautiful in an elegant, yet strong way. Trippy. Yeah, words fail me.
It depends on the individual and how seriously they take their religion, but most Mormon girls are not going to be into casual sex. One trend among them lately has been to have "fun" relationships without commitment, but you will only get around some of the bases (and I don't know how many ). They are quite likely to save themselves for marriage. Of course, this is also true for Protestant and Catholic girls who take their religion more seriously, but the Mormon culture tends to be more tight-knit and I believe there is more social pressure (not to sound negative) to follow the rules. One of my best friends is Mormon and her first marriage was to a non-Mormon; it was never considered leaving the faith, but she had to go through a lot of steps later to be allowed into the temple/ to have her second marriage there. I have known a lot of Mormons and have never heard of any such thing as dating people outside the faith to try to convert them. In the case of actual relationships, I don't think love necessarily conquers all if you believe in completely different things. In some cases, both partners only believe so much of it anyway and have very few actual differences in beliefs between themselves. In other cases, one may be glad to adopt the other's beliefs, or if there is not much real difference (i.e. between Christian denominations) they might both pick a new one. As a moderate Protestant, my first marriage to a diehard Catholic didn't work out; I didn't think there was any real difference in what we actually believed, but maybe there was a lot of difference in how we went about it and what authority we listened to. I think that particular combination can work in better cases, but I'm relieved to have ended up with someone who was in exactly the same place as I was instead.
Not caffeine per se, but the LDS Church discourages members from taking "habit-forming" substances. Coffee is one of the substances that has been specifically outlined, but many practicing Mormons (like myself) drink caffeinated soda. It's like the old Mormon joke: How do you tell a "good" Mormon from a "bad" Mormon? By the temperature of their caffeine.
