The issue is that (according to other posters) that slaves in the south could have been called consenting adults also.
IOW, at what point is manipulating and controlling all aspects of another person’s life, thoughts and beliefs cross into removing their ability to be a free, consenting adult.
Free will, true freedom is the total antithesis of the FLDS and it’s key to destruction.
IOW, I don’t believe that their has been a free consenting female on an FLDS site in decades. The men know that if they allowed free choice in their females, they’d be standing alone like 14 year old a a college kegger.
Great post, najida!
