Texas bill would fine men $100 each time they masturbate

(CNN)A Texas lawmaker has proposed a bill that would fine a man $100 each time he masturbates.

The bill also imposes a 24-hour waiting period if a guy wants a colonoscopy or a vasectomy, or if he's in the market for some Viagra.

Rep. Jessica Farrar, a Democrat, knows her bill isn't going to get very far. But she proposed it last week to make a point and give male lawmakers a taste of their own medicine.

Farrar has long been an advocate of women's health in a state that has made it extremely difficult for women to get abortions. And the bill, by pointing out a sexist double standard, is meant to shine a light on the obstacles women deal with when it comes to their health care.

"Let's look at what Texas has done to women," Farrar told CNN. "What if men had to undergo the same intrusive procedures?"

Even the name is a jab

Farrar's bill would penalize men for masturbation because such behavior is a failure to preserve the sanctity of life and "an act against an unborn child."

Even the bill's name -- "A Man's Right to Know Act" -- is a jab at a pamphlet Texas doctors are required to give women seeking abortions.

That pamphlet, "A Woman's Right to Know," has long been criticized for being inaccurate, ideologically influenced by religion and designed to discourage women from getting abortions.

One section of the pamphlet says breast cancer and abortions are linked. Scientific studies have found no cause-and-effect relationship between the two.

"We have real lives to deal with," said Farrar, who pointed out that Texas has the highest maternal mortality rate in the developed world.

I don’t think this bill is sending the message he thinks it’s sending. ;)

The stupid and illogical are strong with this one.

She thinks she is doing a good job of making a point.

Pass this bill

That way they can no longer claim that we "control women's bodies and not men's bodies." We'll be able to put that stupid canard to bed.

How very cute! And while she’s at it why doesn’t she propose a $100 tax each time a woman has a menstrual period!

I congratulate the Left on conditioning its hive mind to acheive amazing feats of stupid never I would never have thought possible.

Abortion is NOT the same as masturbation, idiot.

Abortion is murder and legalizing abortion is legalizing the murder of a certain class of people.

I’m pretty sick of nasty butt ugly women not from my culture and not of my values like Farrar, AOC, Omar and Tlaib preaching at me.

She’s a hypocrite. She doesn’t like the law so she tries to pass one just like it. What?

If this stupid twat were being intellectually honest, she’d also fine women for every time they menstruate, and would voluntarily pay the “fine” herself.

But she’s not being honest.

“And the bill, by pointing out a sexist double standard, is meant to shine a light on the obstacles women deal with when it comes to their health care.”

Obstacles????

Strange. All women, when they want health care, merely pick up a phone and make an appointment.

True, abortion is different, but abortion is not health care, it is child murder.

Just like a Democrat. My sex life is none of her damned business. Especially whether I jerk off.
