It does feel like they’re shoving it in our faces! Ugh, the constant kissing on Instagram. It feels very posed. I bet you’re right about an engagement soon, especially if he’s moving to Texas with her. I’ve loved seeing Mindy’s posts! This is why I truly don’t understand how Brooklyn can date him. Even his dad has racist posts on fb. Does she not care? And why would Mindy & Shaun be ok with it?Honestly same i also agree with the earlier statement about him giving the creeps idkkkkkk its like he seems way older than he is too ... brooklyn has such a cute fun and young personality and dakota is like complete opposite in every way lol ... idk if its just me but I feel like they're really shoving this relationship in people's face so nobody is surprised by a engagement announcement in a few months.... maybe in a few WEEKS
Very much expected to go, but more so for men. Women are encouraged to go on a mission OR get married asap. If you go to a Mormon college that can kind of get you out of the mission as a girl because you're often married off right after that (Bailey lol)Yes totally agree with what’s just been said about Mindy.
with regard to missions… is it a choice thing or are they expected to do it? How did the twins and kamri get away with not going on missions?
I think it's important to note that the LDS Church REQUIRES you to donate a certain percentage of your income to them if you are a member. At least 10% is the minimum but those who earn a lot are heavily encouraged to give more. They have ways of checking this and consistently ask the members if they are doing this. I always keep this in mind when watching or supporting Mormon influencers, a good amount of their earnings as influencers will be going directly to the church - no matter how subtle they are about their religion onlinei wonder how much money the church rakes in from their members promoting it through social media
Didn't they do missions in high school where they went overseas to build a school in an underprivileged area or was that a different thing again?Yes totally agree with what’s just been said about Mindy.

Nah a mission is 2(3?) years away living and breathing the church. They’re out on the streets talking to people and getting them to join. It’s usually sold (abroad) as free English classes. I’ve met with the elders and sisters a few times out of personal curiosity and most new members were Asian students with broken English so I am not 100% sure they knew what they’re signing up for.Didn't they do missions in high school where they went overseas to build a school in an underprivileged area or was that a different thing again?
Double posting but does anyone think Mindy might have posted these things as “wake up call” for Dakota ? Sharing her values super openly.theoretically i totally agree, they don’t act mormon at all except for when it benefits them and gets them support/attention. but then again, a lottt of young mormons in utah are like that influencers, the lot of them! i wonder how much money the church rakes in from their members promoting it through social media
mindy’s recent instagram stories posting about discrimination in the medical field against Black people were really good in my opinion. there is much that could be said about her, including that she adopted kids from an African country at all, but i do think her attitude of constantly learning more is exactly what racist white people that follow her need to see!
now if only dakota would take some notes
Oh yeah I’ve seen this before, so mcknights and mikesells must be giving a few hundred thousand each to the LDS church. Crazy that that is required! What if people can’t afford to donate 10% of their earnings? Can they then not be members? Not very Christ like!?!?Very much expected to go, but more so for men.

Basically...yes. It's seen as a good deed as a Christian to give 10% no matter how little or much you earn. It's practically used as a threat, saying that if you don't donate then you aren't truly Christ-like (the irony). But to give them a little bit of credit, I think if you were on the absolute poverty line, then it might be waivered, I just haven't personally seen any stories on that yet. But yep, the big LDS youtube families must be practically funding the church some yearsOh yeah I’ve seen this before, so mcknights and mikesells must be giving a few hundred thousand each to the LDS church.

I am so curious about Mormonism. B&B honestly seem like relatively balanced and well rounded individuals.. but then to believe that they will get their own planet upon death …. Like whaaat?
I don't know if maybe she's just being more reserved after how broken she was after Brooks, but she 100% looks like she's settling with Dakota in most of her videos. She doesn't seem giddily in love like she has in the past, she just seems like she wants the convenience of a relationshipBrooklyn is definitely settling with Dakota. No offence to her relationship (no one truly knows how it is other than them), but she looked happier and more smitten with Brooks. And now she's just in a rush to get married so she's willing to go for anyone. Even a trump loving guy. Who know maybe she closetedly holds the same values. I seriously hope I'm wrong.
Ugh.. and her Instagram followers are going to lose their minds when she gets engaged. He just gives me a weird vibe!! I know it’s hard to judge someone by what we see online but he kind of seems creepy, like he could be obsessive. And the fact that he’s moving with her Texas after less than 1 year of dating.So Bailey basicaly just confirmed that Brooklyn and Dakota are planning on getting married asap. She just answered a Q&A on her Instagram story "Do you think by the end of 2022 Brooklyn will be married?" with a kind of sneaky look. My guess is Dakota is planning on proposing in the next few months
Edit - Attached a screenshot
Have they confirmed he’s going to move to Texas?Ugh.. and her Instagram followers are going to lose their minds when she gets engaged. He just gives me a weird vibe!!

Brooklyn hinted at it on tiktok. Someone commented on a video saying having a bf will make it hard to leave Utah & she said, “not if he comes with me.” And his Instagram bio has a business and it says coming soon to Texas.Have they confirmed he’s going to move to Texas?
I can’t put my finger on it but I can’t stand him. He gives me the totally creeps
That would make sense to them. I will never understand how Mormons are in a race to get married and have kids.I have a feeling that the houses that Mindy and Brooklyn were looking to buy are just prep for an engagement. They'll buy a house and get engaged/married real quick to move into it together
What is it?This is interesting. Dakota filed this in October. I think they were only dating 6 months at the time?
Some business he’s opening in TexasW
What is it?
Yeah they were.This is interesting. Dakota filed this in October. I think they were only dating 6 months at the time?
