Women in the LDS Church: Perceptions, Prozac, Polygamy, Priesthood, Patriarchy, and Peace (MP3)

Andrea G. Radke, Mesa, Arizona: The Foundation for Apologetic Information & Research, 2004, MP3.

Dr. Radke discusses "Prozac, Polygamy, [and] Priesthood" as she explains the truth behind the myths outside the church about Mormon women. She explains how the church is very feminist in a way and that increased religiosity in LDS women compared with non-LDS women predicted increased
lifestyle satisfaction and happiness. The gospel itself is the source of "liberation."

Dr. Andrea Radke was raised in Illinois and first came to BYU as an undergraduate in the late 1980s. After receiving her M.A. in 1995, Andrea served an LDS mission to Curitiba, Brazil. Following her mission, she taught for UVSC and the BYU Nauvoo Program before deciding to enter a Ph.D. program at the University of Nebraska. Andrea focused on womenÆs history in the West, particularly women in lifeÆs work professions, school teaching, higher education, science, and domesticity. She is especially interested in how women studentsÆ entrance into higher education fit within larger gender patterns and interactions in 19th and 20th century America. Her dissertation studied women at land-grant universities from 1862 to 1917.
