18. It has never been pro-life or anti-abortion

Jan 2013

it's all about anti-women-enjoy-sex-as-a-fun-activity.

They don't want women to enjoy sex. That's why they shame them with name calling like sluts, why they don't want them to use any sort of birth control, why abstinence is the only method. (Remember when Governor Rick Perry said he practiced what he preaches -- abstinence? You really think that after having 2 or 3 or however many kids, he and his wife haven't done the dirty since the last kid?)

They want women to walk that morning walk of shame.

And frankly, women are tired of that. They're holding their heads high walking home in the morning from someone else's home. There's no shame.

This makes no sense. Last I checked tobacco, alcohol, & obesity is legal. JaneyVee Jan 2013 #6

True, however there's a thread up now where a state is trying to pass a law that says DogPawsBiscuitsNGrav Jan 2013 #7

Still makes no sense. And it is a bizarre equation to even make. JaneyVee Jan 2013 #8
