That article isn’t merely one personal anecdote, it includes numerous personal anecdotes from other women within the same religious group — not ethnoreligious, Mormonism is not an ethnicity — as well as direct quotes from that religion’s “prophet” that expressly directs his female followers to forgo careers in favor of baby-making.
When the members of the religion, the leaders of that religion, and the doctrine of that religion all agree on the goal being to override your hunch and create an effect, your hunch can be discarded until you gather data that shows no such effect. We can certainly discuss the effect the religion publicly desires and advocates for (and has done since its founding) without stereotyping anyone.
