I know where it comes from, particularly since I grew up on some of those cartoons, but you have to admit that my observation was pretty funny!

Under catch phrases.

And bears do inspire a lot of cuddling around my house. I’ve got at least a dozen stuffed loveables around here! :)

54 – I’m sorry, but did anyone else find it hilarious that she says that feminists are no more sexy than the average bear?! :)

Andrew’s comment might have been a bit trollish, but actually, it would be interesting to have a real definition. There is a “homemaker” subculture in some areas of Mormondom that matches what he described. I know of a few in Salt Lake and North Texas (both know personally and have heard described to me). I’ve heard a few of said homemakers define themselves as feminists, but haven’t identified what they stand for (not working, not raising the children, and not homemaking, but there must be something out there that they are doing.) It’s not a tremendous number of people, to be sure, but large enough that one time, whilst attending a ward not my own, I heard some mild chastisement of said subculture from the RS president.

DW and I have a “nontraditional” arrangement of household duties and roles, so what the heck do I know.

Is “some LDS guy from Utah County” not a protected class? Since when are they fair game?

I find feminist women quite attractive; I’ve got one at home right now. But I think I’m in the minority. I bet if you looked deeper into this study, you would find that the men who were happier and more sexually satisfied with feminists were themselves sympathetic to the feminist position- that’s probably how they ended up together in the first place. A random pairing of some LDS guy from Utah County and a feminist woman would probably be a disaster.

This reminds me of that old joke “I like my coffee like I like my women–hot and black.” Which, as a Mormon, is irony piled upon irony.

Who cares if they are sexy anyway. Since they stay up all night blogging and if you are married to one you are lucky to see them in bed before you go to sleep.
