7. the average republican voters doesn't want their daughters having sex until they're married.

so they don't want society giving them messages about sex being good or ok or safe or anything like that.

birth control empowers their daughters to have sex with fewer consequences than there otherwise might be, which could lead to them having sex before marriage, and that's what the average republican voter can't stand.


most sane people acknowledge a difference between "society" and "government", which would allow for such possibilities as a society that discourages premarital sex while government makes nonjudgmental allowances for it. but this sort of thinking is beyond the ken of many republican voters.
