That's what a senator from Idaho said yesterday.
The sponsor of an Idaho mandatory ultrasound bill, state Sen. Chuck Winder, made some highly controversial comments Monday during his closing arguments, suggesting women might falsely use rape as an excuse to obtain an abortion.
Chuck Winder, Idaho Lawmaker, Suggests Women Use Rape As Excuse For Abortions
I gather Chuck Winder knows this from personal experience, because I am certain he was not relying on information, education or any facts.
Or perhaps he craved the media spotlight, bolstered by the news that, only weeks after Rush Limbaugh spat out a pound of misogynistic bile, he is being honored as one of Missouri's favorite sons. Ignoring protests from women who don't think someone who hates women should be installed as a state hero (I know! women are so picky!), the Missouri House Speaker, "argued that the Hall is 'not called the Hall of Universally Loved Missourians.'"
With that kind of logic, I'm just grateful Saddam Hussein wasn't born in Missouri.
I'm 56: at no time in my life do I remember politicians actually going after women's health issues like this, or verbally insulting ordinary women. It was one thing to go after the feminists because, well, we were going after the politicians: but this war, here and now, is not against feminists. It's against all the women of America. I don't even WANT to imagine a country run by people like Winder and Limbaugh and the dozens of other ignorant, morally bankrupt vipers who have declared an open war on American women. The implications are just too fucking frightening.
If you haven't yet seen it, I highly recommend an article that appeared in last week's Daily Kos, Sex, Witchcraft and the War on Women for a short political history of woman-hating and misogyny.
The right wing war on women is certainly no new development. Like many, if not most of the primitivist planks in the right wing cultural platform, their fear and loathing of anything sexual (outside of the act of procreation) is tied to their bond with the church. The right wing war on women has been gaining steam and media attention in recent months largely as a result of zealot majorities in many statehouses around the country who have been using their political muscle to put through an historic number of new laws that are repressive to women's sexual freedom rights. But that is simply the current incarnation of a long and glorious history of the church's (read that, men's) repression of women's (but not men's) sexual rights and practices.

If you love this period of Burlesque, you don't want to miss the exceptional documentary, Behind the Burly Q- The Story of Burlesque in America
Sparkling interviews yield surprising, hilarious, gutsy, wise, and plain-spoken commentaries from some of the tough and glorious gals who once took it all off on stages across the U.S.A. Includes Alan Alda -- whose dad was a Vaudeville performer -- sharing his wild backstage memories. Imagine having burlesque queens as babysitters? The interviewees don't always get their facts right but who cares? The filmmakers have created a superb tribute to this era in American sex history.

seen on the ever-snarkful Gawker, where news that a new trade agreement between the US and Colombia will include the duty-free import of U.S. sex toys didn't get as much of a reaction as the revelation that the article's accompanying image (below) is a stock photo.

Awesome profile of the cool couple behind the most popular chastity device in the kink scene. (And doesn't Frank look like a very contented man.....hmmm....)
Carbon County natives Doris and Frank Miller run a booming business manufacturing the CB-6000 line of male-chastity devices. These high-tech, clear-plastic penis padlocks assure the keyholder that the wearer’s genitalia remain safely under wraps during unsupervised periods. A.L. Enterprises, Inc. recently moved from Price to Las Vegas’ freer business climate, but its patent notices still liven up the business pages of Utah dailies. City Weekly asked Doris about the male-chastity biz.
