Father claims 15 year old girl is capable of consent in Lesbian Rape Case
Father claims 15 year old girl from another family is capable of consent : I'm beginning to really like the change in Florida's government. First they stop handing out welfare checks to junkies. Now they are treating Lesbians under the same rules as Heterosexuals, gasp, what a concept! Don't sign this petition unless you are FOR statutory rape of younger girls by predatory lesbians. How many 18 year old boys have been prosecuted for having sex with 16 year old women under "minors can't give consent"? Special treatment for lesbians? Please, no.

But of course, without guilt/sin and forgiveness, sex ed is perfectly correct for funneling women into sexual slavery, which, after all, is the real purpose- that's why sex ed courses concentrate on destroying their fertility.
Is that what we do when we remove guilt/sin from sex?
Sex in itself is not bad. Safe sex is better than unprotected sex. Sex education should teach safe sex in a non-judgmental manner. It has nothing to do with sexual slavery. Morality should be discussed in a different venue.
"Safe sex" is just another word for "forced sex".
Ted,
If two people mutually enjoy having safe sex, then who is being used? You just can't universally condemn all sexual activity by all people with the sole exception of between a married man and his wife not using contraception. Well, YOU can, and the Church can, but it doesn't mean anything.
Both of them, in the rather rare instance this occurs.
"You just can't universally condemn all sexual activity by all people with the sole exception of between a married man and his wife not using contraception. Well, YOU can, and the Church can, but it doesn't mean anything."
It is fact based sex-ed to do so. Anything less is lying to children.
So, you expect sex education to just cover sex between a husband and a wife without contraception? That won't take very long.
After all, sex done wrong (contracepted) only takes a few minutes. Sex done right takes 18 years, minimum.
About half of this was available when I was in high school, it isn't any longer. But private parties are stepping up- my council just raised $987 for the local Mother & Child center that provides *ALL* of this, to anybody who comes in their door, except for the WIC.
The real trick though is to show how misogynistic the people OPPOSING pregnancy and women really are.
Yeah. That does seem to be a challenge, showing that gay marriage, contraception and abortion rights are somehow against women. I don't see it.
There is a reason that at a time women were unable to work in any other field, they were school teachers.
I'm not going near that one. That has "male chauvinism" written all over it.
The rather politically incorrect comedian Carlos Mencia put it best. He told the story of a young child playing in the kitchen. Mommy says "don't touch the hot oven", as many times as necessary, and never tires of the warning. She leaves the room. The kid tries to touch the oven again. Daddy says, "don't touch the hot oven". After a few minutes of playing, curiosity gets the best of the kid, and he tries to touch it again. Daddy says "go ahead and touch the oven, it's hot"- the kid touches the oven and gets a slight burn. Next thing you know, mommy comes back into the room, and the kid is standing up on a stool because daddy says "the floor is hot". Daddy proudly proclaims to Mommy "I taught him what hot means!
The not so good one taught so much to his lesson plan that I could read ahead (upsidedown) when I was at his desk and have all the assigned work for the week done by Monday Afternoon.
The women always confused me at that age; I never could understand where they were coming from (I now know this was the asperger's).
And it all comes back to dignity of the individual.
Procreation is dignified. It is the process by which a child becomes a parent.
Lust for the sake of lust is undignified- both for the lustful, who have lost control to animalistic emotion- and the intended- who has become an object instead of a person.
Even for a heterosexual couple- having sex when not intending to have children is lying to your body and to your partner's body- an extreme schizophrenic disconnect between what your reproductive system is trying to do and what your mind intends.
Contraception and homosexuality encourage lust instead of love- and thus, a loss of dignity. Far better to just be celibate than either of those.
There can be love between people using contraception and people of the same. It's not up to you to rule on whether a relationship is based on love or lust. Plus, not everyone recognizes lust and sin.
Contraception is designed *specifically* to defeat that type of love.
And people who don't have children can't experience love?
Ideally, as the Greeks discovered, love comes in four flavors, not one.
The ideal cannot be imposed on people.
