Ask me anything about my religion. or my personal life, I guess, but I might not answer those questions.

      Who is wiser: a 25-year-old mormon girl/guy or a lovable old man who seems like your grandpa?

      Not all of our leaders are white or men, though. Many leaders come from South America or other countries, and there are many leaders who are women. If you're looking for an example of a great mormon leader who is a woman, just google Sheri Dew.

      We're not supposed to until we're ready for a serious relationship/to get married. This is a commonly ignored rule. I've never had a serious boyfriend, though - with each boyfriend, most of our time was spent together at school and we never went on dates by ourselves. Sort of a lame "together", I know. And I really shouldn't have been in that relationship when I was 13, because I missed out on making a lot of friends.

      All of these are personal questions, not really religious! Anyway, I will most likely follow my family's allegiances and go to BYU. Going to BYU is actually cheaper than the University of Utah, which are the only two schools that have the kind of good programs I'm interested in. (Utah State is famously known for having about a million education majors, because their program is the best. Guess why most of those girls never finish...)

      Ach this is embarrassing. I had my first boyfriend when I was 13, but we never kissed (in Utah, this is even common for high school couples who go out for months). I've had two boyfriends since then - Tyler and I had a thing when I was 15, and Troy and I had a VERY short relationship this past winter. I have still never kissed a boy. The word "boyfriend" is kind of defined differently for Mormon kids in high school.

      To protect myself...especially with my older posts, I have written some embarrassing things that I want to keep private. I have given out a lot of weird code names, though, when really most people have normal names. Leon's real name is Matt, for example. Mary's name is Ashlee. But I'm not giving them all away...

      You must be from Utah. Big families is definitely a cultural thing, and it's changing. Although it's true that I only know a handful of Mormons who are only children (and most are converts to the church), the average number of kids is definitely shrinking. Yes, I know kids with 10 brothers and sisters, but most of the people in their 20s that I know are only planning on having 3-4 kids. I love big families, though, and hope to have at least 5 or 6 kids.

      I don't really know enough to answer. Being from Utah, I can tell you that Jon Huntsman served as an awesome governor. I have great respect for him. I'm old enough to vaguely remember Romney saving the day for the Olympics, but I really don't know enough about him to say which one I prefer. I guess we'll see which one I vote for, since 2012 will be my first presidential election.
