Wait, hold up. Is he actually Mormon?

Edit: I looked around briefly and there doesn't seem to be any clear evidence for him being Mormon or part of the lds church.

But also, Mormons love porn. There have been multiple studies from porn websites and Google that show that Utah has not only one of the highest per-capita consumption of porn, but also have a major (iirc, majority) interest in trans women. Which is... fascinating.

Edit2: jk, looks like my info is old. The trans and Mormon thing was from like 2009 and may be a shitty study by one guy on subscription porn. It seems like NOW, utahians don't use pornhub at all, but this year there was a huge increase in VPNs.

Utah looooves their porn. But they're conflicted by it, what with the religious shame and all, which is why the Utah legislature passed a bill to require webcam access/facial verification/age verification before you can access porn sites (thus causing PornHub to stop operating in Utah).

something tells me the increase in VPNs and drop in pornhub usage in Utah is because pornhub literally doesn't work in Utah anymore unless you have a VPN
