Where’s this at? I think I may qualify. That might be worth the expense of the trip.
@Isaac ! Is this in your area??? That would be EPIC!!!Saw this online
Sounds like a rewrite of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Like The Hulk. There are only a limited number of stories in the world, they keep getting retold with different characters...
There are some erie parallels with Samson’s strength.
I hate the phrase, but it would be hilarious to watch the rabid feminists melt down over the implications, so: for the meme generator, I submit to you, "Polygamy: my body, my choice."

@Cap If I could nitpick, I would say that using this picture with that caption might not resonate with people the right way. The first thing I thought when I saw this is "Um... I'm not sure those girls were always given a choice about their bodies..."
My knowledge of FLDS practice is spotty though, just giving an opinion on how it looks from the outside.

I understand that and agree. I just tried to quickly find a picture of women in polygamy with a bunch of kids. That's what I got. But it's a meme, take out of it what like.
Ya I don't think that's actually the case. But in mememetics perception matters. The meme text is great but should be paired with someone in modern styling.
Also, if you have your pick of women it should be a couple pretty but not too pretty brunette's. This is a common tactic in romance stories; they are the easiest for the audience to empathize with. A memetic example of this is in the head turn meme of the guy with his girlfriend and him looking at the other girl and the girlfriend looking disgusted.
This effect is the other reason to picture someone in modern dress/hair. You want them to see themselves in the picture. With mormon's in 100 year old style dress the first perception is of 'other' and you don't want to associate your message with 'other' as that hurts acceptance.
I get that the image was quickly made; no criticisms here I thought it was great. Just good lessons to have in general when making memes.
