  Gosh, I've watched and paused it so many times. It's the most unique insignia I've ever seen. I've Googled everything I could to match that mens style of ring and came up empty.

  Of course, I'm preconditioned to look for this kind of thing:

  Should it be considered sexual harassment?

  by Addison0998 in

  on thing that really makes me angry and disgusted is when i think of the way in the past that the elders pressured me over and over again to have a meeting with them over a petty make out and petting incident.

  they asked such instrusive, personal questions like, “did he touch your breast, for how long?

  under or over your clothes?” i know that this happens to thousands of people, especially young women, and it’s just not right, it makes me so angry that i almost feel tempted to confront the elder who especially did this, when i see him at the convention in a few weeks and tell him what a sick person he is and how much trauma he caused me, manipulating me and pressuring me to answer such instrusive questions while he sat there and took notes!!

  Hey! My PMs are down (tried Firefox, Explorer, clearing browser history, cookies, crackers, biscuits - the whole digital pantry). Nothing's working at the moment, but I promise to reply as soon as this techy glitch is fixed, @Addison0998 :).

  @James Mixon: "...our feature sin is bigamy".

  I thought the consequence of two mothers-in-law was punishment enough.

  Wow. Compelling article.

  Just one thing... the intro seemed a bit personal (like the journalist, David Gambacorta, is an ex-Witness himself):

  "Stephen Lett is 69, bald, and round-faced, with eyes that sometimes spring open to dramatic effect while he’s talking — if you can manage to get an audience with him."

  While personal descriptions are good for effect in creative narratives, I don't believe they translate as innocuous in a newspaper, such as The Daily Inquirer. But that's just my personal opinion.

  I think the story and facts alone hold enough shock factor. There wasn't really a need to highlight Lett's more negative appearance to add weight to the article.

  Hey sweetie, I actually deliberated over even opening this thread when you first posted it because the subject matter makes me

  so

  damn

  ANGRY.

  You have no idea how sorry I am that you had to undergo such vile questioning by these perverted men. I honestly wish I could just give you the biggest hug and some support right now because you most certainly were wronged.

  Should you decide to go through with exchanging words with the elder in question, a good tip I heard is to set your phone on record. This ensures you choose your words carefully and keep your dignity. Think of it as a silent reminder to keep yourself in check should you feel the emotions rising like bile.

  Honestly, this is the face of every elder daring to probe with such private (and unnecessary!) questions:

  

  Sending you so much love. We've got your back, girl.
