What saddens me are Republicans now attacking Akin for telling the truth.
For decades, feminists have been telling us:
1) All marriage is rape
2) When a woman has consensual sex on a date, it is really rape
3) When a man takes pleasure in any way from a woman, it is rape.
Those things ARE NOT RAPE. "Legitimate" rape is non-consensual forcible sexual exploitation of another, usually violent.
How else are we to speak about reality, as opposed to the wasted superlatives of political correctness? If everything is rape, then nothing is.
I say Akin did nothing wrong.
That the woman's body has a magic way of keeping from getting pregnant from rapist sperm? That's nonsense.
I say Akin did nothing wrong.
I know nothing about Akins but going by what I’ve read,which admittedly isn’t alot, but it sounds to me his biggest mistake was explaining his position clearly...?
Hang em high!
Meanwhile, back at the Oval Office Obama has set the bar so low that Jimmy Carter for President in 2013 would be an improvement!
You’re right. While this politician’s words are clumsy, there is truth to what he’s said.
According to this site — http://www.physiciansforlife.org/content/view/492/26/ — “one of the most important reasons why a rape victim rarely gets pregnant [is] ... psychic trauma.”
“I say Akin did nothing wrong.”
You’re not one of those who believe that women secrete some magic spermicidal fluid during a rape are you?
By agreeing with Akin, you sound just as ignorant as he does.
“What saddens me are Republicans now attacking Akin for telling the truth.”
So what is this magic organ inside the woman that rejects the sperm of a rapist? Is it some kind of physical flap or do her antibodies attack the sperm? I’m no expert on biology but I can’t find a reference to this anywhere.
Yes, a decent and sensible politician can refute the arguments you pointed out with logical thought, however Akin’s answer was beyond stupid by using both the term “legitimate” and then pointing out to this magical non-existant organ inside women that prevents pregnancy.

EXACTLY.
Wow. I had never heard feminists saying that. Got any links so I can read more?
