OK, now that the fundies have convinced me that no woman in her right...
...mind should ever get married because it's the equivalent of consenting to future rape and giving up all rights to her body, what will the fundies come up with next to "defend" marriage? A nice photo-shop of Bush talking to God, while God tells Bush that all women should be forced by law to marry revolting fundie rapists?

I'm a woman - please tell me how I can escape these idiots before they spread their madness!

1. I can't see for the life of me why anyone would ever want to marry
but if the fundies get their way and redefine marriage as the lifetime right of legal rape for the male, it's gonna be really hard to keep dressing it up in white satin and orange blossoms.

The only way they got away with that shit before the last century was in forbidding women higher education and jobs and keeping them slaves. Either you became the pathetic spinster aunt and everybody's servant or you married and became a rape victim.

5. I decided to get out of the other thread...
because I was getting so angry I wasn't sure I could handle it.

There should be no argument about this.

Sex without consent is rape, period.

6. Just out of curiosity, how are you making this a political issue?
It is clear you have continued this from the other thread. Do you have evidence that the man convicted of rape was NOT a democrat OR that the jury that convicted him wasn't a jury of republicans? This is a social issue, even a religious issue, but it isn't a political issue quite as clearly as you seem to want to make it. Now I agree that the extreme christians are republicans and that they are hoping to overrun the republicans, but as yet I don't see that happening to their preference. And in fact the court case that seems to have you all stirred up, was decided in favor of the allegedly raped wife, what more do you want? Just to rant?
