Former First Lady Laura Bush has acknowledged that during the 2012 election cycle, there were a few Republican candidates that scared women.
I have some bad news for Mrs. Bush, the scary behavior isn't limited to a few candidates.
It’s not the contraception, everybody thinks it’s about contraception, but what this court case said was young people have the right to engage in sex outside of marriage. Society never gave young people that right, functioning societies don’t do that, they stop it, they punish it, they corral people, they shame people, they do whatever. The institution for the expression of sexuality is marriage and all societies always shepherded young people there, what the Supreme Court said was forget that shepherding, you can’t block that, that’s not to be done.Folks seeking to ban sex outside of marriage are pretty scary too. It's a pity that the GOP embraces such idiocy rather than expelling it. Having one viable political party would really be nice for a change.
