Female Sexual Pleasure Outlawed in Alabama
1999-02-17 20:49:00
Those crazy fundamentalist freaks have fucked one too many cousin! In a bill past late last year, Alabama lawfuckers outlawed strip clubs and "items to enhance sex" such as vibrators and even some condoms. The ACLU is suing their slimy backwoods asses for invasion of privacy. They also noticed that Viagra is perfectly legal and paid for by most health insure and that virtually all of the "items" in question are used by (or on) women. Seeing as how, for some women, foreplay is a not an optional part of the sexual situation (in fact some women _only_ get off with a little help from modern technology) this seems more than a little unfair.
This is nothing new. In the 1600s, a Scottish doctor complained in his notes that over half the women in Scotland use dildoes. In the good ol' days that these Alabama idiots want to drag us back to, women went to their doctors to have "hysterical spasms" induced--in other words, their doctors would jill them off so they wouldn't go crazy from bad sex. The vibrator was actually invented 'cause doctors were sick of doing all the work (apparently you can't even pay guys for foreplay). They used to be sold in every women's magazine until they started showing up in pornos and people couldn't pretend that they didn't know what they were really for (shoulder massager my ass).
The real fucking scary part is that this story is a 10 line blurb in the "Oddly Enough" section of Yahoo! News. Wanna guess what page it would be on if some state outlawed Viagra?

It's a fact: Star Wars is a blatant plagiarism of an ancient Asian legend, and the long lines of devout Star Wars freaks are really unscrupulous Asian copyright busters.

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
