BYU Super Weekends: The Vegas Sex Loophole
At 28:08 · chapter starts 27:40
The most shareable moment of the episode arrives when Hannah explains what a BYU Super Weekend apparently involves. Wanting to have sex but bound by religious rules against premarital intercourse, some Mormon college students allegedly found the most elaborate possible loophole: a weekend Vegas trip, a legal marriage ceremony, sex, and an annulment — all before Monday morning. Hannah's reaction is admiration: 'these people are fucking geniuses.' Paige's reaction is bewilderment: 'that is rebellion at a 14-year-old reading level.' The segment dissolves into Hannah describing 'docking' — another practice allegedly common among young Mormons seeking intimacy without technically crossing religious lines — and both women marveling at how much freakier the workarounds are than the thing itself.
