37. What's funny is that these assbackwards men thought

Nov 2012

that women would just be silent, like we are dumb animals or something who can't speak for ourselves. This tells you how low women are on the humanity scale to conservative men.

Secondly, why are men using women's bodies to make themselves feel more holy? If Scott DesJarlais hadn't made his wife have two abortions and hadn't seduced his patients, he might look moral - a little bit. Instead, he wants to deny women the right to a safe, legal abortion to MAKE HIMSELF LOOK HOLY! Talk about USERS and LOSERs. They can't be decent people, so they try to USE OUR BODIES to PRETEND they are decent. USE YOUR OWN BODY to do what's right and LEAVE MINE ALONE!

Thirdly, I've heard men scream that we women were so SELFISH to worry about such a trivial thing as our OWN BODIES and we ignored the FISCAL CLIFF and voted for Obama out of SELF-INTEREST.

"How dare you let your own bodies trump my bank account?" say the old losers and users.

When one of them cuts off his balls to help my bank account, I'll give a flying fuck.
