Legitimate rape

[LnGrrrR]

LOL...

Really now. The they are a partisan bunch if lib s.

WC, are you really that gullible?

[SnakeBoy]

Really? Hearing stuff like "the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down" in 2012 is ignorance to the extreme.

Yeah it's dumb and he's finished because of it but your saying you're shocked he became the nominee and I'm just asking if he was making similar gaffes during the primary. I don't know anything about him other than this comment, I gather you don't either?

And I'd like to know who's the "doctor" he claims told him that.

I just looked him up on wiki and it sounds like he's super christiany so probably he's been told that stress affects fertility (which is true) and then he used his powers of deduction to conclude that rape is stressful so a woman won't get pregnant unless she enjoys it.

I am also on the panel of peer reviewers on Urban Dictionary. My esteemed colleagues and I get paid a handsome sum of money to weed out the chaff.

WC, are you really that gullible?

In what way?

Maybe there is a committee, if so, there shouldn't be blatant misinterpretation allowed.

Rape between one man and one woman who are not married or even acquainted; the only rape sanctioned by the Republican Party.

Come on now. What committee would approve such a definition, unless lib s?

[resistanze]

Wow.

WC it's a humorous website. Anyone can submit a definition.

[DMC]

Easy, the Illuminati.

Isn't that what I implied to begin with?

I haven't read through this thread in great detail but I just can't stop laughing at the Jeebo who just singlehandedly flipped his state -- which was somewhere between likely/safe Republican -- to the Democrats.

But that's the risk Republicans run in catering to the 80-IQ Jeebo crowd.

I'm eager to hear more of his brilliant theories about the female body's magical shield against rape-sperm. So, if somebody claims she was raped but gets pregnant, is she lying? Did she enjoy her rape too much? Is she really a dirty ? Should we stone her for shaming her family?

I think this Jeebo may have launched a new sect of his faith -- let's call it Chrislam!

I have no clue what your original point was at this time...

Well, I personally disagree that was just a gaffe, or as he's trying to claim now, he 'misspoke'... I thought he was very candid and honest when he said what he said, it was nothing unintentional about it, as absolutely ignorant as it was.

I don't think he's a bad guy, just completely disconnected from reality at least on that topic, which prompts you to wonder where else he has such disconnects. I don't even see this is a partisan issue. Alarms would go off just as loudly if he had a (D) next to his name.

I just looked him up on wiki and it sounds like he's super christiany so probably he's been told that stress affects fertility (which is true) and then he used his powers of deduction to conclude that rape is stressful so a woman won't get pregnant unless she enjoys it.

That was as ignorant as it gets. Especially in this day and age, and when it's such a hot topic. I actually applaud the rest of the GOP from walking away from him. There really are no excuses.

Urban Dictionary

crofl

See why you need to verify what you find on the internet... Almost anyone can make things up.

[LnGrrrR]

What was there to verify? Of course the term "legitimate rape" was made up, because before Akin, no one was asinine enough to suggest that.

[mrsmaalox]

And I'd like to know who's the "doctor" he claims told him that.

Probably the same guy who told Mic e Bachmann that the HPV vaccine causes mental re ation.

[Wild Cobra]

What was there to verify?

That the definition is correct.

[LnGrrrR]

That the definition is correct.

WC, it's a made up word/phrase. There's no "correct" definition, because the phrase doesn't exist.

[ElNono]

[George Gervin's Afro]

Wc doubling down on stupid. Lol

[Wild Cobra Kai]

Probably the same guy who told Mic e Bachmann that the HPV vaccine causes mental re ation.

Was she in the case study?

[TeyshaBlue]

My God. I cant help it if you cant understand my thought process.

It isn't correct. According to websters...

Legitimate Rape: an excuse to get a tax payer funded abortion; also known as sex between and man and a woman by the lesbo feminazis

[Creepn]

Lmao holy WC! Come on man, come on.

[SnakeBoy]

Anytime someone destroys their political career because of one word I would call it a gaffe. If he had said he heard that victims of "violent" rape were less likely to get pregnant he would be able to wiggle his way out of this. It's the use of "legitimate rape", as if some forms of rape don't count, that's killing him.

I actually applaud the rest of the GOP from walking away from him. There really are no excuses.

They are only walking away because they don't want abortion to become a main issue in this election. Don't applaud them too much.

[GoodOdor]

WC, it's not too late man! quick, just claim that you were joking all along!!!

Sure, your previous history of posting really stupid might doom you in, but there's probably a couple spectators reading this thread that will buy it!

But there's no scientific basis for that either. Here's a good article describing the actual science side of it: Rape trauma as barrier to pregnancy has no scientific basis (starting from THE STRESS FACTOR part)

And yeah, the word selection was terrible. But the whole thing came across as a complete disconnect, IMO.

Possibly, but it's still the right thing to do, tbh.
