What is a DOM?

I learned a new term the other day DOM here in the Philippines means Dirty Old Men. If you know anything about Latter-day Saints, you would know how as people we go over and beyond to protect the sanctity of the family unit. And For that purpose, we even have the proclamation to the Family to refer to in case we get confused when the world around us tries to define what constitutes a family. 

                                                                     

In our home we have the proclamation framed and displayed as a reminder. Here is an excerpt of what is says: The Family is ordained of God. Marriage between a man and a woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are entitled to birth within the bonds of matrimony, and to be reared by a father and a mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity. Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieve when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ.” 

What set us apart from the rest of the world is the belief in eternal marriage, Godlike in quality never to contemplate the idea of divorce, but it does happen more and more often as if leaving the family for a new one is similar to exchanging an old car for a newer model.

That is why I can’t stand older dirty old men with young women. I think is sick and I see it way too often here in the Philippines. It breaks my heart for those poor girls but that is what hunger can do to those poor souls. Sad but it’s a crude reality. I hope a day will come when  young women will not resort to getting exploited that way.
