A SECOND Mississippi gubernatorial candidate [R], Bill Waller, has announced that he also follows the "Billy Graham rule" in his dealings with women! WTF, Mississippi?!? Y'all need to GET OVER this whole fear of women thing. Get some therapy, maybe. Do something. This is flat getting ridiculous. I'm getting (more) glad I left every day!
What does one expect from religion? Women belong in the kitchen and in the bedroom and no say so in family decisions. The funny thing is since MS is a red state that he probably will get elected. After the state is at the bottom tier of states in regards to educational level.
Unfortunately, in the South mental health therapy still has a lot of stigma and is considered taboo. Those who probably need it are more often scorned as people who would be just fine if they would simply start "living right" and turn to God and religion to help them. Religion is considered not just a substitute for therapy, it's considered superior to therapy for helping people.
