There is no double standard in believing women have a right to an abortion, and not liking abortion (and by extension someone who's had one). I believe the KKK has a right to hold their opinions, that don't mean I want to date someone who's in the klan.
Any attempt to claim there is a double-standard is just a cheap play for attention.
Personally I'm too happy a girl is letting me fuck her to ever judge her on her past behavior. If she was in the klan, and cute, and I wouldn't get upset til I came.
Yeah she's adorable but why is that a topic for discussion? Some people probably don't find her adorable. So what?
If only because he's actually following advice heard on talk radio. Think about talk radio. Exactly.
"3. I too do not leave a condom ANYWHERE where the woman I am with can get at it."
Unless its homeless women at the garbage dump, I don't think any of the condoms you fill by masturbating are going to be picked up anytime soon.
Good call! "those who support the hot sauce trick also believe they are entitled to force their girlfriends/wives to carry a fetus to term?"
You will not have a baby till I tell you to, and when I tell you to, you damn well better have one! lol
"let me go on the record to say that, once a pregnancy is underway, it's strictly the woman's choice as to what to do. It's her body, not mine.
Let me play devils advocate for a moment, though I do agree with your statement. It is somewhat troubling that a man can be held legal responsible for the child the women chooses to bear. This has bearing in cases where men have taken steps to avoid pregnancy and the woman has taken steps to induce pregnancy by duplicitous methods (like making him cum. Oooh you tricksy women!)
Frankly I don't see a way out of it, legally speaking, but considering the amount of crap men have forced and continue to force women to eat I'm willing to let the occasional guy get screwed on this.
Let me also reiterate my objection to the man in the letter, not because he doesn't trust her, but seriously how can you trust someone willing to follow advice, especially about something so important, that he got from talk radio.
postnoodzHow much do you want to wager that those who support the hot sauce trick also believe they are entitled to force their girlfriends/wives to carry a fetus to term?
Why is it only the woman's choice? So once a man impregnates a woman, he has no say in the child's care, birth, or life?
You've gone to far. As it concerns the childs birth, she has all the say because she is the one who puts her life on the line to carry it to term. As far as its care after birth and subsequent life, the amount of imput either parent has is up to both of them.
all the most degrading phrases and most innocuous, only mean one thing to pubescent teens: sex, sex exists, people are having sex, people are talking about sex, singing about sex... I wanna have sex.
Thats it. wanting to 'beat that pussy up' means one thing to a teen. sex. It probably has no degrading or violent connotation to them. It just means SEX.
Ooh! OOH OOH! I know this one! Was it McCain? I seem to remember many instances of the McCain campaign running explicitly on fear, conflict and discord, so STFU Rove. I won't even bother to cite examples cause everyone should be able to think of some.
GlennGreenwaldbamageOne of the distinguishing characteristics of a major-league feckin' A-hole was a pathological inability to recognize that they were, in fact, an A-hole. Even when their own behavior was expressly pointed out to them.
That's what I think. I believe the majority view is that people like Rove are completely self-possessed and fully conscious about their lies and deceit because they're some sort of Machievellian, master propgandists.
I don't know. I can easily picture him giggling to himself knowing how many left bloggers will get their panties in a bunch as it were over him being such an ass. Bush, yes, completely unaware. Rove, its possible he's aware and thinks it funny.
There are enough Utah resident mormon missionaries outside the country to make up a congressional district?!?! No wonder other countries hate us sometimes. How fucking obnoxious is that?
If your masculinity is dependent on your financial or social status, then you have no masculinity. You merely have a mask of masculinity.
If Obama doesn't take steps to actively change the rules to protect these people, then they'll get comfy under Obama and then get hammered and all sent to jail with the next repub admin.
What bigotry? People traveling to other countries to say "Hey, what you believe in is wrong, believe in what I tell you" is patently offensive. It shows a callous disregard and disrespect for other people and their beliefs. What did I say that was bigoted? I'll happily admit to criticizing the behavior of proselytizing but I've said nothing against being a mormon.
