      Not just controlling women. Penalizing anyone who has non reproductive sex.

    Now I’m not telling anyone to do anything… but nobody has ever had a baby by pounding your best bro in the ass while you stroke him off. Same with your gal pals. Make it a competitive event! Learn new things and create memories you can cherish for a lifetime as you scream louder and louder with every shaking orgasm, in sync with the boys.

    Just something to think about the next time you get frisky.

        I mean…

        If the government can take away the right to basic reproductive healthcare for half the population, there’s no reason they couldn’t do it for the other half. They likely wouldn’t, because the right wingers obviously believe men deserve more rights than women, but let’s not underestimate the government’s capacity for making terrible policy in furtherance of some fantastical pseudo-purity culture that only exists in their minds.

        Oh, I see your edit now. You meant they can’t take it away after they’ve already had one. True that.

        It’s not even about having babies. It’s about control in general. Louisiana just passed physical castration as a punishment. Yes it is for one of the worst most disgusting things a person can do to another living being, but it leaves no path for redemption, it is irreversible, it is cruel and unusual, and it is about control. They’ll literally cut your balls off in Louisiana for molesting children.

          I think you’re defending the wrong side. if you’re molesting kids, fuck your balls, you’re lucky to be alive at that point.

            To be clear: they are penalizing “pedos” while simultaneously allowing (encouraging?) 13-year olds to get married. This is not about pedophilia but about gays.

            What part of my comment was defending child molesters? My point is that legalizing physical castration as a punishment for any crime at all, they have set the bar for what is considered cruel and unusual punishment below mutilation. Since our legal system is based on precedent, that means other forms of mutilation as punishment are now on the table in the courts.

            Also, the absolutely are women child molesters. You can’t physically cut a biological woman’s balls off. The punishment targets men specifically and does nothing to actually stop molestation in the future. Also, Louisiana has the highest rate of false guilty verdicts in the country and they are the ones cutting men’s balls off… Just saying.

    This is a show vote. It’s not serious… It’s a phony vote because contraception, to my knowledge, is not illegal. It’s not unavailable.

    If you say so, Sen. Corbyn.

    The vote is part of a larger push by Senate Democrats to draw attention to how the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade has affected all aspects of reproductive health…

    They confirm what the republicans are saying in the very next sentence? Who’s editing these articles?

      Not YET illegal. Not YET unavailable. There’s several states looking at ways to change that. Not surprisingly the same states that already have banned abortion or are working on that as well.

      It’s both — the Democrats are trying to highlight important policy differences, and they knew in advance that the Republicans wouldn’t vote for it, making it something of a show vote.
