About this deal
The Mormon faith, however, distinguishes between same-sex attraction and "homosexual behavior" -- the latter being unacceptable.
In her testimony, Savannah pushed against the expectation that she would have to reject dreams of marriage and family for her faith. Savannah's parents were both apprehensive at their daughter's desire to come out to her church. After all, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) -- the official name of the Mormon church -- is notoriously homophobic.If you’re sure?” Paige glanced over at the giggling group of girls, already in their suits, towels slung over their shoulders, among them Paige’s little sister, Jess—the sole reason she’d agreed to come along on this exasperating outing in the first place. Under official policy, the church "welcomes" members who have same-sex attractions, saying that same-sex attraction is a "complex reality and part of the human experience." Maybe it was her own brunette’s natural prejudice against the petite blond—or maybe it was Brandi’s bright idea that using some of the kerosene would help the fire start a little faster. Paige had thankfully made it to the girls before they tried that brilliant idea, or all of them would have gone home to their parents without eyebrows. Indeed, the Mormon church does accept portions of Savannah's identity. But her story has brought attention to what acceptance (with conditions) looks like in church community.
Her writing embodies everything from the spicy to the scandalous, but watch out-this kitty also has sharp claws and her stories often include intriguing edges and twists that take readers to new, thought-provoking depths.The petite blond is just her type, so when a tent mishap leaves Paige without one, forcing the two women to share, the trip goes from tame to thrilling faster than either of them could have imagined.
