[quote=Anonymous]When I was in HS I went to church (willingly) with a Mormon friend of mine.  Besides it being incredibly long (3 hours!) I thought it was mostly fine if not a little strange/different from my own experiences.  The morning started with all children/youth going to their own class according to age/grade.  Boys and girls were separated.  Then after that, boys and girls of same age/grade were in a class together, then all children would join adults for the final hour in the main chapel.  The only time I felt really awkward or uncomfortable was during the coed class.  That class's main focus was getting the boys and girls to date each other, get married and have lots of Mormon babies.  I was probably 16 at the time but the way it was presented made it seem like they wanted you to be doing this RIGHT NOW.  It was in a small western town with a large Mormon population.  I knew of at least one couple at my high school that were already married.

I didn't grow up there.  I had moved there at the beginning of high school from a large city so felt VERY out of place![/quote]
