I saw on the show Big Love a scene wherein there were binders full of women coming of age for the polygamists to choose from for their next wives. I'm not sure how to search for that, but Romney's claim to have binders full of women reminded me of that scene.
Can anyone find info on that practice? Do Mormon polygamists really choose their brides like that?

Shows their faces to see how pretty they are and their legs to prove how thin they are (I guess).
