How much of the anger & bitterness & nastiness of repubs comes from sexual repression?

1. They have sex as much as liberals

They just lie about it.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

2. All of it, and ....

as I've maintained all along, the obsession with torture stems from deeply-seated psychosexual pathologies..............

[Lerkfish]

3. well, I think that analysis is too easy.

and bypasses the whole real reason: they're evil serpent beings devoid of human compassion.
But serpents still mate.

4. I think it's the Two G's that get 'em--Guilt and Greed. NT

[Bluebear]

5. Greed, paranoia and mean-spiritedness. Nothing sexual.

[Dappleganger]

6. It's religious-based, not sexual.

There's a strong element of repressed racism for good measure.

7. None, it seems.

They're all getting caught doodling everything in sight.

[Quantess]

8. Yes, but their psychological and emotional trappings make their sexuality so twisted.

There is a lot of self-loathing and hatred of others intertwined with their sexuality.

11. And guilt. Lots and lots of guilt. n/t

9. My goodness! The GOP Doesn't Seem Repressed at All, Judging By the Lawsuits

It's that they feel obliged to repress OTHER people, especially all women and any or all other nations, religions, and fictional constructs.

10. I suspect a great deal

I mean... it sure as hell appears that way.

12. Their Nastyness comes from Negative Side of Things...

Litte Cobtrol in the Home...Dom'd by wife/husband types.

Poor Self Esteem usually fuels Drive to succeed on an Individual Basis, not for the People so much....

14. It seems to me like an emotional illness

Caused by parents who won't/can't usher their children into adulthood - sexual repression is only part of it.
At least I *hope* that's the cause. If it's a genetic illness, then our species is screwed.
