Confused Morality Play

The acting is very good. Jolene is a song that places a wife who pleads with a beautiful woman not to take her man, even though she could. This Heartstrings episode indicates that Jolene should be at liberty to sleep with women's husbands as she wishes, and if you are the wife of one of these husbands, tough. She is an empowered and progressive woman. How dare anyone judge her.

I expected some moral basis would be applied here, given Dolly's family-centric faith.
