Many of you have inquired why Tami’s “Mormon Muffins for TV Dinners” videos have been removed from our YouTube channel. Even though they were all made in fun, some people in her family and community took it as an opportunity to judge and verbally attack her and her children. Below is Tami’s statement on the matter:

“There was general disgust and disappointment from my brothers and sisters. They felt I was mocking the church, the spirit of conversion, even the atonement. This was truly not my intention, and I was saddened by their sudden animosity. Every moment spent with them was filled with tension. My family has always been very close, so I was extremely bothered by this. However, it was the pressure placed upon my children that I was unable to stand. They were faced with situations where they were suddenly forced to deal with their mom being called a “stripper” and a “skank.” They were told that I was hurting the church, and that I was causing it to be made fun of and ridiculed. They were told by people that my actions were going to be “very bad for them” without telling them how this was so. This caused them great upset, which in turn broke my heart and I decided that I could no longer subject them to it. I did not want my actions to cause hurt for anyone. So, with the best interests of my family in mind, I respectfully requested that my videos be removed from general view. Chad has honored my request, and I am very grateful.”

The debut Hot Mormon Muffins calendar is officially out of the oven, and it’s irresistible sensation is causing quit the stir around the country. Of course when you do a project like this, as we learned with Men on a Mission, the very people that cause the stereotypes to begin with, that we have to work so hard to debunk, come out in full force with their boxing gloves on, wearing masks of course, to not reveal their true identity in an effort to protect their perfectly manufactured image.

I can understand their frustration. I used to be stuck in the same black and white world, but I continued to pretend to smile. So I completely understand the school of thought that there is no room for creative and individual expression within religion, and human sexuality and spirituality must be completely compartmentalized and separated from each other - as if to cut off ones arm to blend in with general consciousness.

What fascinates me is that this school of thought also creates a justification button in the brain of these people that makes it OK to go against their own Christian teachings to “defend” their religion by deliberately bashing the expressions and individuality of others with words of hate - as if we were attacking them to begin with.

This is why there is war in the world.

So here is a taste of the reactions from the outwardly perfect LDS community in the latest response to Hot Mormon Muffins and me, Chad, the creator:

(Keep in mind this is about a PG rated calendar with images that reflect photography from the 1940’s.)

Just a quick note Chad, You are pathetic. I feel sorry for you but not because you were
excommunicated and didn’t get your degree. I feel sorry for you because
you’ve been used by Satan. You poor guy! Poor, poor idiot!

LOSER, or may I go further to say GAY LOSER. Your father must be so proud. I
think Cleopatra was less vain. Looove the glamour shots. Adam Lambert called
he wants his hair back. LA HOO SEHER!!!

Yo Chad, get a life and quit being so hard-hearted against the Gospel, it
will do you no good. The way you portrayed the “LDS women” in that calendar
is not reality and you know it. My wife is a true, virtuous, lovely lady
and NOT at all like the immodest women in your so called art. If attention
is all you want in life, then I guess you shall have your reward.

You guys are freaking idiots. You obviously don’t know JACK about “mormons”.

Wow you guys are a joke. You call yourselves mormons? I’m 22 and i wouldn’t even dress like that. You look like trashy old moms. gross. If you don’t follow the mormon standards don’t taint that trashy calendar with the name just to get attention.

So you’re mad because your gay and the church excommunicated you for gay
relations? I bet that’s the real reason. I mean who would lose membership in
the church to publish a calendar of a bunch of ugly scrubs anyway?

You absolutley do not deserve your degree and how pathetic that you woudl
still want it.

What you say this calendar represents is a lie. Do not justify your wrong choices. You need to repent, stop listening to the counsel of the world, stop trying to counsel yourselves, and listen and follow the counsel of the Savior. I know He wouldn’t say that this is ‘no big deal.’ The creators of this calendar and this website are acting like wolves in sheep’s clothing.

I am offended. You guys are sick!

this is a horrible site!! you sell awful stuff that are about sacred things all for money. i wouldn’t want to explain this to my maker in the life to come. God bless but i hope this site fails.

As a convert to the LDS church, return missionary and mother, I give you my
very individual and open minded comment . . . “you need to figure out your
issues because they are much deeper than just an agenda to “open minds”.
The reason you lost your membership and degree were because your actions do
not support the Latter-Day Saint values.How dare you use that platform to
advance your own designs.

so sad. i feel so sorry for chad hardy. one day you will hopefully wake up
and realize what a grasp satan has on your twisted mind.

Gross. I feel embarrassed for your family…

Why dont you find something better to do with your time. Abviously you dont
have anything better to do, then to break something good, instead of
creating your own good. Your a disgrace and i am glad they x you. You
deserved it and the deploma should have been taken long before that. Why
did you choose to go to a mormon school when you’re gay. Go hang with gay
people and start a gay church. You can call it “I have AIDS”. No in all
seriousness I am not a mormon but i think it absolutely rediculus you are
trying to make soft porn popular by using the churchs name, to get
headlines. You’re a disgrace to the so called 6 generations of mormon who
came before you. My advice go build your own greatness dont break others.
It shows you have nothing going on for yourself and that your full of pride
and hate. Most gay people have all the hate but accuse everyone else of
having it. SO get over trying ot make healines and do something with your
life.

Oh wow. You’re so brave. How does you betraying your faith and the promises
you made to God and yourself make you a noble person. What you label as
intolerance on the part of the Church, is actually God’s unwilling to accept
sin. It has nothing to do with hate, but rather a refusal to defile that
which is holy.

Your calender is a joke. you’re a nutt job. The whole project is a
disgrace. Go find a project that is worth while to spend your time.

Why are you so dumb? You are a right dumb ass, you were not doing good things and you were asked to stop and then when you get a reaction you dont like it, just grown up!

Thought-provoking 2010 Calendar Features Pinup Mormon Moms and Their Favorite Muffin Recipes

LAS VEGAS — Mormons Exposed announced today a hot new addition to its controversial international project: a provocative 2010 calendar featuring 12 gorgeous Mormon mothers who have dared to pose in the first-ever Hot Mormon Muffins: A Taste of Motherhood calendar.
A follow-up to the popular and controversial Men on a Mission calendars featuring hunky returned Mormon missionaries, the new Hot Mormon Muffins calendar is a tongue-in-cheek celebration of motherhood done in a playful vintage pinup style. Created as a vehicle to create dialog and deliberately debunk the subservient stereotypes of women’s roles within the Mormon Church, the sexy new calendar celebrates the great looks, beautiful bodies and delicious muffin recipes of these unconventional Latter-day Saint moms.
Many of the women appearing in the calendar are single mothers and have firsthand experience with the arduous expectations associated with living in a strict religious society. Comfortable with their beliefs, these women are independent and brave enough to challenge the status quo in order to promote religious and cultural tolerance.
This is not the first statement by Mormons Exposed on the subject of tolerance. Its Men on a Mission calendar was the subject of countless news reports, newspaper articles and internet blogs.
“All of our projects offer a deeper story than your typical skin-baring calendars—one that we believe can reshape perceptions, heighten awareness and perhaps inspire a broader acceptance of diversity,” says Chad Hardy, creator of Mormons Exposed. “This project has created a polar response from both sides of the spectrum, and has gotten people’s attention.”
The Hot Mormon Muffins calendar will benefit breast cancer research. A portion of revenues generated by calendar sales will go to the cause. This was inspired by models such as Yayoi Swapp (Ms. August), 53 and mother of 2, who is a breast cancer survivor. In addition, Lynda Whitaker (Ms. June), 41 and mother of 4, lost her sister to breast cancer.
The calendar models are also featured in a humorous series of webisodes, Mormon Muffins for TV Dinners, which can be found at www.youtube.com/mormonmuffins.
About Chad Hardy
Established in 2007 by Chad Hardy, the Las Vegas-based Mormons Exposed encourages people to look beyond the stereotypes of race, religion and political affiliation to achieve a greater understanding of one another. The Mormon Church did not appreciate Hardy’s efforts and excommunicated him in a formal disciplinary hearing last year for not ceasing publication of the Men on a Mission calendar. Mormon-owned Brigham Young University followed suit by yanking Hardy’s diploma after his graduation. Though born into a deeply religious, sixth-generation Mormon family, Hardy says, “The calendar is more about people than it is about religion. Whether they love, hate or are indifferent to Mormons, consumers can appreciate what these calendars represent.”
