Young was the son of Brigham Young and one of his wives, Margaret Pierce. In 1875, Morris Young served a mission for the LDS Church in the Hawaiian Islands. Shortly after returning from this mission, he was asked by his father to organize the YMMIA along with Junius F. Wells and Milton H. Hardy.
In 1883, Young served another mission in the Hawaiian Islands. He married Armeda Snow, a daughter of Lorenzo Snow. Their son, Lorenzo Snow Young, was a prominent architect in Utah.
In 1885, Young, his wife, and their children returned from serving his second mission in the Hawaiian Islands. Shortly after returning to Utah, Young began publicly performing as a cross-dressing singer under the pseudonymMadam Pattirini.[1][2][3] Young performed as Pattirini in north and central Utah venues from 1885 to the 1900s. He could produce a convincing falsetto, and many in the audience did not realize that Pattirini was Young. One of his performances as Madam Pattirini was for the last birthday celebration of LDS Church president Lorenzo Snow in April 1901.[4] He also once portrayed a "fine Irish girl" named Bridget McCarthy at a Christmas ball at the Salt Lake Theatre in Utah.

How do you explain drag to children?
How did your parents explain drag to you?
I don’t rely remember the details, just my parents description of the good time that they had in New Orleans on their honeymoon. It included a drag show but as I was in high school there was no need to explain what that was. A few years later, I saw a similar show in the Crescent City.
Exactly, no explanation was necessarily.
That's Entertainment!
Yet you asked for one.
Fuck Off!
You can fuck off if that is what you prefer, but I fuck on.
Love is a wonderful thing.
