(80,708 posts)Maybe if you find a "mens rights" person, you can take it up with them.
Did you wander in here expecting a fight with... I don't know what?
And then there's "libertarianism" waved around like it's dog doo on a stick! (not to mention, "...on demand"... nice use of anti-choice language, there. Whoops!) I think I just hit authoritarian bingo! You know what else is an "extreme libertarian" position? Thinking that consenting adults should be free to smoke pot in their homes, that we shouldn't spend $60 Billion a year on a "drug war" focused on throwing them in prison for it. Ooooooh! Libertarianism! Dog Doo on a stick!
Fucking A Yes, I think consenting adults need the freedom to make their own damn choices, even bad ones. WHOA! OH NO! EXTREEEEEME LIBERTARIANISM!
FREAAAAAK THE FUCK OUT!!!!
Yeah. And I think there is a tremendous amount of judgment and fretting, in some quarters, over what OTHER people do and choose to do. And I think it's driven by fundamental discontent or unhappiness with those folks' own lives.
Sort of how the few anti-choicers I saw lining the march for womens lives in DC in 2004, where I marched with 1.2 Million other Feminists (I hauled my ass across the country to do that.... were you there?), looked like they hadn't had a single satisfactory orgasm among them since 1974. When people are pissed off and unsatisfied, they usually express it by trying to CONTROL THE CONSENTING ADULT BEHAVIOR OF OTHERS.
It's a weird fetish, if you ask me.
