OH i just saw a thing about how the biggest reason people thought Aurora might marry Kody is bc they saw her wearing a Claddagh ring, like all the sister wives used to do in the past as their little sister wives thing, so let me revise my thots:
1. I'm almost positive that it's a purity ring, not an engagement ring. Is that still weird? absolutely yes
2. As we know, purity culture blurs the boundaries in father/daughter relationships in a veryyyyy uncomfy way, and along those lines it makes sense to me that she'd have a Claddagh as her purity ring. If Aurora is one thing it's up Kody's butt, and I'm pretty sure we know for a fact that Kody was the originator of the Claddagh trend in the Brown family
3. It impossible to practice purity culture or fundamentalist mormonism without just inherently treating women like property or currency, you just can't do it. So this purity Claddagh imo is like a Brown Family Brand on all the women Kody controls (Robyn and her daughters, ig) and is probably something Kody would do with all his daughters of he had been around enough to brainwash tf out of them like he had Robyn's kids (not that Robyn doesn't wholeheartedly participate).
Anyway learning that made that rumor make a lot more sense but I still don't think it has any merit. Not that the purity thing doesn't make me grossed out but, at least it's not the other thing (in my humble opinion).
