And there was Rush's recent slut-shaming of a certain woman. I forget her name.

I think it was.. Susan Fluke?
I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Sandra Fluke. 

She had spoken out about the cost of 'contraceptives' - by which she meant pharmaceutical birth control - for college students, who pay out the same amount whether they have sex a hundred times a month or once, or use the medication to control hormonal dysfunctions and other medical problems.  And on behalf of another student who had wound up losing her ovaries (one or both, not sure) to cysts because she couldn't afford the medication to treat it, as it was considered 'birth control' and not covered by the college's health coverage.

So Rush Airbag grabbed the quote about 'contraceptives' costing up to $500 a month and twisted it into an explicit accusation that Sandra personally uses $500 worth of CONDOMS a month and wants the US taxpayers to pay her to have sex all day, making her a busy hooker.

Conservative logic: Sure, Rush Limbaugh thinks women shouldn't be allowed to get contraceptives, blames women for being 'irresponsible' when they refuse to follow the doctrine of the Catholic Church, calls them 'sluts' when they disagree with him in public, constantly criticises women he doesn't like as ugly and so on... BUT THAT'S FREEDOM!

I don't remember him ever mentioning condoms. I think he is just ignorant of how birth control works (that it's a pill you take all the time). He also completely ignored the fact that birth control pills is often used for reasons other than birth control. There are people who are abstinent and take birth control pills.
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

I'm still trying to figure out what sexual fetishes are being referred to here.  A glasses fetish?  A beads fetish?

Seriously, every single article of clothing that person is wearing is perfectly normal in every way.

I think that is supposed to be a cross dresser which makes this pic inaccurate seeing how few states have T protections

I think somebody's sarcasm meter broke...

Either that, or I picked up some false echoes.  *shrugs*

I love how fundies accuse everyone else of being perverts, yet they're the ones who see sexual connotations in everything.

Oh no, he did this whole math thing to figure out how many condoms she was using.  I remember pretty clearly him saying 'condoms'.  Also he thinks BC works like condoms.

I hate those people who just think that if we "liberalise the market" it will magically solve all of our problems. The truth is the poor if they weren't able to get government aid would just end up relying on the whims of the rich through private charity, a sort of Neo Victorianism.
