On Judge Mathis, a young woman named Lystra Beavers met a man through a telephone dating service. They ended up marrying because that is what her religion required her to do before she would do anything else. Personally, I don't think you should have to marry someone to please that person's religious views. Apparently, she cheated on her husband with other women. I think she said " it didn't happen like that" and accused him of cheating on her before they met in person or something like that. A religious woman having sex with other women? Interesting, she must either be a closeted lesbian or bisexual woman or at least very hypocritical. Yes, I know not all religious women are homophobic and they sometimes sexually experiment with other women, just like some lesbians have had some sexual experiences with men and that some gay guys have experimented with women. There are even straight guys that have had sex with other men, usually gay men in particular. Lystra and her husband had dated for two years prior to their marriage, she lost her claim in court because they were still married, but they are in the process of divorce. The worst part is that Lystra's parents disowned her for marrying a white man.
It showed me how prejudice and hypocrisy are still rampant in our world. We all know that misogyny and homophobia exist, well racism still exists too. Prejudice towards interracial relationships still exists. Just like interfaith and same-sex relationships are often dehumanized by religiously-intolerant and homophobic bigots. I wonder if Lystra's parents' religious views had anything to do with them disowning her for being in an interracial marriage?
