GOP 2022 - The Bareback Party

CLIFs. I like big gov.

 

I used to trumpet state's rights. Sadly, it has now become mostly something that the fearful & ignorant freedom haters use to create more big gov. Ex. Marriage should be a state thingy. NO! it should not have a damn thing to do with the government. NOTHING. A license to get married??!?! so stupid.

 

Read it here ~ Text - H.R.8373 - 117th Congress (2021-2022): To protect a person’s ability to access contraceptives and to engage in contraception, and to protect a health care provider’s ability to provide contraceptives, contraception, and information related to contraception.

 

Excellent post. It could be its own thread.

One interesting thing you said here was the primal, pre-rational lizard brain part. I have always assumed, maybe incorrectly, that human inner demons, shame, or guilt about sexual desire was probably taught. Is there evidence of this elsewhere among primates? Or maybe I’m misunderstanding that point. Great post either way.

 

How this has even become a controversy is beyond astounding.

R’s obsession with your minute to minute life is psychotic.

 

Will an attempt to outlaw tubal ligation and vasectomy procedures be next?

 

I just re-read the Constitution (doesn’t take long), they’re not in there.

Survey says: Likely

 

Someone should bring a bill to protect BJs. Would be interesting.

 

So I was right.

This bill protects POST conception contraceptives which is why many have an issue with it. This isnt about condoms at all.

Why cant people just be honest?

 

That would be the "emergency contraceptives". Which absolutely need to be available if abortion isn't.

 

Contraception products are a product/service not a right.

The fact that laws are trying to be passed to protect/ban is crazy.

 

They generally work by preventing implantation, which takes place after fertilization. Conception is a process, not a single instant. Far too many of those who claim life begins at conception don't understand the process of conception. What they really mean, if you can get them to articulate their position in more detail, is that life begins at fertilization (meaning that over 50% of new lives are ended naturally before conception is completed). This leads to stupid things like banning all contraceptives because some of them prevent fertilized eggs from implantation.
