Russell M. Nelson: "Our Sacred Duty to Honor Women" (May 1999 Ensign) from Priesthood session:

"Tonight I am attending with a son, sons-in-law, and grandsons. Where are their mothers? Gathered in the kitchen of our home! What are they doing? Making large batches of homemade doughnuts! And when we return home, we will feast on those doughnuts. While we enjoy them, these mothers, sisters, and daughters will listen intently as each of us speaks of things he learned here tonight.
Maybe they’re not ‘listening intently’ so much as ponderizing over the fact that they had a welcome first crack at eating a few of their own delicious fresh donuts, without waiting for the husbands, sons, sons-in-law, and grandsons to amble into the room after Priesthood session.

Cause Mormon women must grab whatever Mormon crumbs they can? Ok.

I found stepping away from that toxic environment far more fulfilling. And I still make and eat delicious, fresh, entirely gender-neutral donuts.

I'm pretty sure this one is titled "The Apparition," not "Ready for Battle."

They're in the kitchen preparing refreshments..... :D
Clearly not the “relief” Frazetta had in mind.

Verified...

And when we return home, we will feast on those doughnuts. While we enjoy them, these mothers, sisters, and daughters will listen intently as each of us speaks of things he learned here tonight. It�s a nice family tradition, symbolic of the fact that everything we learn and do as priesthood bearers should bless our families
the sexist arrogance just drips from this guy. But then, he is the person whose wife, after giving birth to 9 girls, got pregnant again at 48, after many years of not being pregnant, risking her life with an emergency c-section in order to... (finally!) give Nelson a SON.
...these mothers, sisters, and daughters will listen intently...
Too many Mormon men are raised thinking this is normal.
Wow! Bizarre stuff.
