In the official Mormon church, the status of a housewife with stereotypical gender roles of a housekeeper is considered a tribute to tradition.

However, in the Fundamentalist Church, there exists a strict list outlining the actions that women are permitted or prohibited from undertaking.

For instance, the famous hand-woven ankle-length dresses with pants and special underwear are required to be worn by Mormon women.

Additionally, make-up, painted nails, short haircuts, and loose hair are strictly forbidden for Mormon wives.

Moreover, teenagers who engage in listening to rock music and participating in premarital relations face excommunication from the church.
