I have anger about this, but my rage has been redirected to those who want to ban Gardasil because it promotes promiscuity.
My rage reserves are deep enough to cover both.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Oh yeah. And, not surprisingly, in the same parts of the country where they teach abstinence only! My god, the stupid, it burns. And drowns, if I'm near liash's work.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
But it's just possible that I have some blinding rage issues on this front.
Oh yeah. It's bad enough that I consciously avoid thinking about all of it, because it's so fucking appalling I can't handle it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Jess Hemerly showed me this photo of a delightful alteration of an emergency hammer box. I asked her where she got the image and she just said, "the Internet."

It seems to me part and parcel of a lot of conservative policy -- legislating (or educating) for the world the way you wish it was, rather than the world the way it is.
And there's a certain argument for this (high expectations, after all), but sometimes it's just naive and dangerous. And evil. Oops, did I say evil?

Like wishing the financial markets were really self regulating.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
The thing that makes me craziest about abstainance only education is that its not EDUCATION. It's the refusal to educate.
I'm fond of saying we shouldn't have sex ed at all in schools. We should teach comprehensive biology, hygene, and epidemeology and if the little buggers figure out how their bodies work in the process, well that's just the risk you take when you educate people, huh?
