also likes to have sex. What we both enjoy is not having a baby every 9 months and 6 weeks. That would have me in the 15 + kids.

now imagine almost every woman in the US having a kid a year. Then their daughters having over 10 kids....and so on.

Imagine every guy who has sex with women impregnating even 50% of them in a years time.

We have to have a license to have a dog, car, boat, trailer, to vote, etc.
But kids?....sure have 20 of them.

Well, we have the TV Licence (back in the UK, not NC) so I suppose that makes up for it.

Very rural communities, probably not, but they do require proof of rabies vaccination.

If caught with a dog off leash in many communities, failure to provide proof of licensure and rabies vaccination will assure you a rather steep fine.. $100/per the last I checked in Denver.

I am a man who likes to have sex.

I haven't had sex in a long time, but it doesn't make me any less of a man.

Sex doesn't define us!

has a big deal to do with their hatred and bigotry. People who like to have sex and choice and don't feel guilty about it also tend to be happier people I think.

And if the pill were not available, that would certainly affect whether I wanted to have sex or not.

I can just walk by my wife and get her pregnant. If it was not for the pill we would be in huge financial trouble. Buying food at these outrageous prices is already killing us, more would be the end.


BTW your are not supposed to say stuff like that in public. Decorum and all you know. Sex is the bane of woman and burden of men.
Everybody know that. Like Old McDonald was a really bad speller.

the right is not very logical. They're mostly driven by emotion. And they are deeply obsessed with other people's private lives.

while I'm in it, it's great, afterward if I begin to think about like I am some alien from another planet studying humans and I'm like "what the ....!!!" they do THAT to eachother?!!

Same for pooping, it can be nirvana, bringing tears of joy to my eyes, sometimes tears of pain,but afterward, well, you know..

I just can't stand to be that close to someone. Ick! That's just me though, I'm unusual, not abnormal. I've always been more at the asexual end of the spectrum. I'm glad I'm old now and nobody looks at me anymore, it's very liberating and a huge relief

Yes, yes, YES! or no. It's weird how our society as a whole still has these Puritan ideas about sex, which means only men can have unfettered access to it. It's well past time things change and women no longer are in a lose-lose situation as far as having or not having sex goes.
