Super cringy Mormon video from the 1960s. (Beware casual racism and blunt misogyny). It's a good snapshot into how Mormons viewed the world in the 1960s.

Mahana, you ugly!

No, guys, it isn’t racist it’s a parable that explains to women they only have value if they can get a relatively rich man to pay attention to them.
