The Texas Polygamous Sect has been justly investigated, in my opinion,
with regard to allegations of child abuse.
However, the sect has many of the socio-political-culture attributes,
except for it's vocal opposition to militarism and war, described and
advocated for by the ancient Greek philosopher, Plato, in his book
"The Republic".
Plato, in that work, advocates many of the socio-political-culture
practices which this sect follows including the sharing of wives, the
sharing of children, and a simple and virtuous life. Again, while "The
Republic" advocates militarism, the sect clearly renounces the same.
Given the aforementioned, the sect should be protected and not

best, work out with the matrons just when and what sexual activity is
for each depending on the level of development and hormones.

Note- the men are not involved in this process, other than those
selected by the women because of their sensitivity to the emotional
states of others and thereby more able to control their own sexual
responses accordingly.

Adults are also particularly susceptable to manipulation by minors who

Lotita, in contrast to the common perception, is in fact the sexual
predator who used her mom's husband to challenge her mom as to just who
could provide the most pleasure to him. And when she no longer needed
him for that, she dropped him like used hanky.
