I don't think there is an effective way of communicating what the LDS Church views as the ideal role for women. It is just such a powder keg that I see no method of accomplishing that end without someone being offended. I am not a big fan of Tex, but IMO he has hit this one on the head. People don't like or agree with the current LDS position on the issue so they were going to piss and moan no matter how carefully Sister Beck presented her message. This crap about hurt feelings of those who didn't get last weeks cheerios goo out of Lil Eliza's dress is bullshit. They just don't like the old fashioned role - even if they live that role out of choice.
That said, I see no reason she needs to hide behind an apostle. She should just say take that which you feel is applicable to make your life, home, marital relationship and family relationship better and apply it. And dammit we don't believe felatio is a sin!
Or something like that.
