In the wake of charges being dropped recently against controversial religious leaders in Bountiful, B.C., Listen Up is exploring realities of the polygamy landscape in Canada. We spoke with Irene Spencer, who grew up being told that polygamy was not only expected, but required in order to receive the rewards of heaven.
bottom line is that young girls are being RAPED and cajoled into this life by their immediate family - WTF - they know no better and need intervention. polygamy isn't the problem - it's deciding for these young girls, born (and bred by their IMMEDIATE FAMILY) into this fucked up world, knowing no better resulting in grandpa fucking his 13 year old daughter/grand daughter/niece (one and the same)

I read your book, Irene. Thank you for having the courage and the gumption to stand up for yourself and all the women and children in polygamy. Thank you for telling your story to us. You are a gift!!!!
