Speaking of religion,

anyone see the article about today is the Mormon women's 'wear pants to church' day. It is against the male rulers of the Mormons that women must wear a dress or a skirt, no slacks, shorts.
In this day and time, I can't believe the women in that church have put up with it. I wonder if this would have become a federal law if Romney had won the election?
This was in the Roanoke Times paper today (Virginia), but can't find it in their on-line edition.

but that's all they did. Mostly they caught on fire and got in the way and were generally a pain in the ass.

I think if Mormon men love skirts that much, they're the ones who should start wearing them.
