SCOTUS just gave a 5-4 decision upholding the Partial Birth Abortion Act.

The video does not play.

It seems to have been taken off YouTube. But damn, it was awesome. Penis power!

I loved how she said penis like it had three syllables. “Peahnuss.” Makes me believe it!

And if someone doesn’t come along with a Zardoz reference I’ll be upset…

Since the video was taken down, would you mind giving a synopsis? I am *curious*, I am! :)

You can see it here.

That was a whole lot of crazy, right there.

Wow. I’m amazed that is on tv. But it’s great. That is how you should teach a girl, just tell it to her straight out.

It is very interesting. I am tempted to send it to my teacher, but he may question why a 15 year old girl is watching it… oh well.

Thanks for the link to the working video. Hmmmm. She *does* make some very interesting points, in between the bits that are odd enough that I am *still* shaking my head. (And between the bits that are just plain scientifically/anatomically wrong.) I think it would be good for young women/girls to get it laid on the line like that, though — there *are* men out there who will really tempt you** to confuse love with great sex, and you really have to have your head screwed on straight to see through it. I also think it would be extremely good for men/boys to be taught that that kind of behavior is not acceptable. Aw, hell! I just think that folks need to learn to respect each other as human beings and stop trying to use people for selfish purposes. I am not going to hold my breath for that one, though. :(

Interesting vid. Worth the watch.

**”Tempt” in the sense of persuading you (through words or actions) to ignore the little warning signs in your head that tell you when a guy doesn’t actually respect you. But the sex is so damn GOOD!!

Elizabeth,

I would suggest that you give the video another, more critical, viewing. There’s a lot about it that isn’t great… she seems to think that the only “good” use of sex for a woman is to acquire resources.

Not to mention her… unusual ideas about human physiology.
