" Women from the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, who were called upon to make clothes en masse for the children taken into state custody, have now turned their skills to commerce and launched an online shop."
This statement to me shows one aspect of feminism -
"The austere dresses with long-sleeves and high collars, loose-fitting pants, long-johns and modest blouses worn by members of the sect are reminiscent of 19th century American pioneers and highlighted the sect's isolation.
But with the children returned to their legal guardians following a court ruling in May, the sect's members are turning their hand to providing their distinctive clothes to the general public -- and the demand appears strong."
Even though polygamy is illegal, these women showed the world that they care for their children by making clothes for them, display history through their design, and most importantly show the world that their culture is very special to them and its their choice.
The demand statement shows that there are people that are supporting them.
I just thought this was an interesting perspective of looking at things and does not portray anyone's beliefs.
