LOS ANGELES — You drive a hybrid, eat organic, and are passionate about recycling. But how green is your love life?

Think about those lovely Valentine's Day roses and the environmental costs of growing them and the carbon miles involved in flying them in from faraway lands.

And what about used condoms, tossed into the toilet and making their way into sewers that perhaps pollute the ocean?

If an ecologically sustainable life between the sheets hasn't crossed your mind, you're still a "total environmental neophyte," according to author Stefanie Iris Weiss.

With the planet headed toward a population of around 9 billion oxygen-swilling, carbon-emitting people by 2040, according to the United Nations, the ultimate carbon offset is to choose sex that does not result in having babies.

"The No. 1 thing people can do to be an eco-sexual is to have fewer kids, or have none at all," said Weiss, who is childless.

Wow - Thanks Ms. Weiss for being childless. I have 4, and hope they each have multiples. Of course, a country has to have a birthrate of 2.4 births to consider it sustainable. Less than that, and the country will eventually slide into oblivion.

(At least, one study I read said that).

what a repugnant sewer of a culture.

throw away condoms?
Don’t do that!
Wash them out and resell them on the corner!

Momma makes gin in the bathroom,
Daddy sell condoms on the corner,
he pricks each one with a pin.
Uncle does abortions in the basement,
Oh lord how the money rolls in.

Zero has a Tsar to take care of this!

And she is being a burden on society in not having children to support her with their social security payments and taxes for Obamacare/medicade.

That’s it! Greenies DO NOT BREED!

Who am I, Captain Kirk?

Acute silver poisoning?

Depending on the photo, Ms. Weiss ranges from Hella Guilty to Probably Not Guilty (but still wouldn't want her to know my home phone number if I dated her).

BTW, I wonder how eco-friendly that leather jacket in the last pic is?

And we wonder why there are enough morons in this nation to have elected Hussein?? People like these are teaching friggin’ school!

If it is green, you should probably see a doctor before leprosy sets in and it falls off.

Homosexuals are a heterophobic intolerant lot.

[envisio]

Thats it.

These people are obsessed.

They are mentally deranged.

Anything “green” sells. Even disgusting articles about green sex. Liberal greenies eat it up hook line and sinker.

[a fool in paradise]

Yesterday, the papers had an article about female condoms praised by a 23 year old “sexpert”. She must’ve gotten an early start to be an “expert” at such a young age.

throw away condoms? Don’t do that! Wash them out and resell them on the corner!

Or turn them inside out and use them again.

LOL I "dated" a few like that. They couldn't understand why we always ended up at her place instead of mine. I didn't have the heart to say "because I don't want your crazy ass knowing where I live"
