MonicaM October 30, 2019 Share October 30, 2019 We also need to keep in mind that their idea of "dating" is far from what most people outside of their cult consider dating. Yes, they probably saw each other at gatherings, and talked and interacted. However, I seriously doubt Austin was picking her up at JB's house so they could go to a movie or some other typical dating activity. Maybe they were doing their version of "dating", but we can be sure they weren't spending any time alone or really getting to know each other. They probably weren't even allowed to go out with other couples from their cult. Besides, I thought they weren't allowed to date and give away pieces of their hearts. 🤢 1 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/51212-joy-and-austin-this-one-time-at-family-camp/page/145/#findComment-5713398
Minivanessa October 30, 2019 Share October 30, 2019 (edited) 15 hours ago, Angeltoes said: Supposedly the daughters have final say when it comes to the courting/marrying. JB can suggest strongly but the girls can veto. This must be true or Jana would have been auctioned off married a long time ago. Yes, as far as we know, JB hasn't pushed any daughter into marriage with a man she doesn't want to marry. I think he likes and enjoys his kids more than their MOTY does, and wouldn't force a daughter into marriage. But he's pre-screened the serious candidates - remember our discussion of his multi-page questionnaire that Derick, Ben, and Jeremy had to fill out in order to get permission to court? JB isn't as extreme as Vaughn Ohlman, who was going to host a "Get Them Married" event (for a mere $1000 fee) to pair off kids of fundie parents into holy matrimony - until he got a lot of public backlash (and probably no like-minded fundies who could cough up a grand to attend). He promotes a straight-up "match 'em before they even meet" system. JB's the presentable public face of this fundie/Quiverfull world. Then there are the Pearls, and this Ohlman nutjob, to remind us what this harsh patriarchal belief system is all about.
