    In my country are the same thing. Many of the participation in the church are male, because they're served missions in different countries, also they know the opportunity to serve at other people. There are many great causes why the mormon people are friendly and nice..because we want to have a wonderful lives.

  3. I didn't know that this church has equality for male and female because there are a lot of female church members in Japan. Anyway, he said good things. I agree that we always should be happy even we are in hard time.

  4. This is easy to see in Brazil too. However, in Brazil both LDS men and LDS women are much more active than another church. I believe that this is because personal commitment that LDS people have with God and the happiness that they feel while put the Gospel into practice.
