State Lawmaker Gets Tons Of Angry Calls Over His Letter About Anal Sex [View all]
TOM KLUDT – MAY 2, 2014, 2:13 PM EDT
Steve Hickey knew what he was getting into this week when he sounded the alarm on the dangers of anal sex.
Hickey, a Republican state House representative in South Dakota who serves as a pastor, reacted to a likely challenge to the state's same-sex marriage ban with a graphic letter that he posted on his Facebook page and submitted to the Argus Leader.
"Certainly there are board-certified doctors in our state who will attest to what seems self-evident to so many: gay sex is not good for the body or mind," Hickey wrote. "Pardon a crude comparison but regarding men with men, we are talking about a one-way alley meant only for the garbage truck to go down. Frankly, I’d question the judgment of doctor who says it’s all fine."
The Argus Leader rejected the letter, citing its length and language, but Hickey still made an impression. TPM interviewed him about the letter, several other outlets picked up the story, and soon Hickey said he was inundated with angry calls to his office at Church at the Gate in Sioux Falls, S.D.
