JD 3:360, Brigham Young, June 15, 1856
I will speak a little more upon placing your affections on beings who are not worthy of them. Take a Prophet, and Apostle, a man of God, one who is just as good in his calling and capacity as Jesus Christ was in his, a man who has adorned the doctrine of his profession, until he is sealed up unto eternal lives by the power of the Priesthood, one who is sure of a glorious resurrection, and let him desire to have a wife. Now suppose that he gains the affection of a lovely woman and marries her, how much shall that righteous man love that woman?
Shall he say, "I love this woman to such a degree that I will go to hell rather than not have her, I will do even this rather than lose my wife?" No, for you ought to love a woman only so far as she adorns the doctrine you profess; so far as she adorns that doctrine, just so far let your love extend to her. When will she be worthy of the full extent of your affection? When she has lived long enough to secure to herself a glorious resurrection and an eternal exaltation as your companion, and never until then.
Elders, never love your wives one hair's breadth further than they adorn the Gospel, never love them so but that you can leave them at a moment's warning without shedding a tear. Should you love a child any more than this? No. Here are Apostles and Prophets who are destined to be exalted with the Gods, to become rulers in the kingdoms of our Father, to become equal with the Father and the Son, and will you let your affections be unduly placed on anything this side that kingdom and glory? If you do, you disgrace your calling and Priesthood. The very moment that persons in this Church suffer their affections to be immoderately placed upon an object this side the celestial kingdom, they disgrace their profession and calling. When you love your wives and children, are fond of your horses, your carriages, your fine houses, your goods and chattels, or anything of an earthly nature, before your affections become too strong, wait until you and your family are sealed up unto eternal lives, and you know they are yours from that time henceforth and for ever.

Fear of divorce if either partner leaves the church. Women who reject the mentality that they are little more than personal possessions.

Wade who? Wade Englund?
Wade is probably also an Omega male, meaning the last in the pack the females want to mate with, but we are the nicest guys, but nice guys finish last.

So Daheshist, are lesbians attracted to Alpha females?
And when they go in for artificial insemination do they demand only alpha males donors?

This is how Lesbians become lesbians.
Step One: They are abused by a dominating guy who was mean and didn't respect them.
Step Two: They become s***s
Step Three: They fall for a nice guy who burns them, however they still can't stop being s***s and when the nice guy leaves they became lesbians.

Also Derrick, some "stupid random good looking fake chick" gave me the smug attitude the other day, I get hit on just as much if not more than she does, if some chicks are afraid some other psycho is going to punch them around for being associated with me, I might be the one to do the punching.

Golden skies and hazel eyes
And sand in-between my toes...but
SOMETHIN' TELLS ME THAT I HATE YOU!
SOMETHIN' TELLS ME I MUST KILL YOU!

Re: Mormon SINGLES: why aren't single Mormons over 30 marryi
From what I can tell, gay Mormon men have no problem marrying attractive women in the LDS Church. Straight Omega males, such as myself, do have problems finding attractive women in the LDS Church.
I've been around single Mormons for over 30 years. In Young Adult Wards and Single Wards. Single's dances, etc. I am 51, and still single. Generally, Mormons over the age of 30 who are still single fall into the following categories:
Women:
Hold-outs: Mormon women who expect to marry a rich man, but are not pretty enough to procure one. They think they get more valuable with time, like cheese or wine. The men they seek marry, wealthy active LDS men, marry the 18 year old sexy air-heads, so the HoldOuts are only fooling themselves when they think "aging" only makes them more desireable to the rich men. The exact opposite is true.
Left-Overs: Mormon women who are fat (obese), ugly, too old, or deformed. Or, in other words, 90 per cent of all single Mormon women over 30. Nobody wants them.
MEN:
DonJuans: Single Mormon men who get SO MUCH SEX as it is, they feel no pressure to marry. They're having too much fun. I was roommates with several DonJuans and a friend to another. Believe me....they are DROWNING in sex, all young attractive active Mormon women and girls.
Losers: Single Mormon men who are poor and probably always will be. The No'er-do-Wells. The Hold-Outs won't marry them, and even these men don't want to marry the Left-Overs.
That is why there are so many LDS singles over 30.

Hmm...I wonder if the thought here was that if a single female parent is friends with a married couple, that the married couple would accept her as a second wife in the Celestial Kingdom.
Yeap! You are right in your thoughts there!
The Doctrine of Polygyny is alive and well within the LDS Church.
The Late LDS Church Apostle, Bruce R. McConkie stated:
"Obviously the holy practice (of Polygyny) will commence again after the Second Coming of the Son of Man and the ushering in of the millennium."
(Mormon Doctrine, 1966 Edition)

For that matter, I have asked about this before on LDS forums but never got an answer. If one of Daheshist's alpha male Mormon nightmares were to donate sperm and produced, let's say, a child or two with four or five single or lesbian mothers, and those women accept the Gospel in the next life, would he then be encouraged to take them as wives as he already has produced offspring with them?
On a related note, if in this life one of those kids were able to find the LDS donor father through DNA tracking, and he or she accepted the Gospel, could he or she be sealed to the biological father if they hit it off well with him?

The Brackite is also an Omega male.
