great read!
p.s. I think it is funny that it seems everyone assumed the author was a woman because he mentioned his opposition to Virginia's anti abortion law. Read the next post about Biden's phony "round table discussion" at VCU
You're both absolutely incorrect. The laws he is talking about do not only cover abortion but also accessibility to contraception and other female specific medical care. Beyond that, I remember male lawmakers who tried to silence a female legislator for using the word "vagina".
People who are disturbed by medical terminology, specifically when they don't even own the parts being discussed, shouldn't be allowed to make laws about them. Laws requiring trans-vaginal ultrasounds? That is an extremely invasive procedure. Not a problem, the guys who made the law don't have to worry about it.
Remember Todd Akin's legitimate rape? His comments about how the body can "shut that whole thing down" is just as ****ing ignorant and stupid as Carolyn McCarthy thinking a barrel shroud is the shoulder thing that goes up.
If you are unable to speak intelligently on a topic, you should not be allowed to make the rules that govern others. There is zero difference between the anti-gun crowd and the anti-abortion crowd. Both groups know precisely dick about what they're talking about. Interestingly enough, each group claims a moral superiority and believes themselves to be above that other scum.
It's stupid and it's exactly the reason we have such a sad excuse for political discourse in this country. You want to know why politics has become such a cluster****? I'm sure the refusal to listen to the other side and the copious amounts of sarcasm people are trying to pass for intelligent discussion are probably contributing factors.
