also, i agree with the commenter who said her vagina sealed itself off in horror that people even exist who think like this. it baffles me that in 2009 any major publication would post something like this. how is this kind of thinking not utterly fringe yet?
alas, these are all just the last gasps. we're entering the Obama decade (2010-2020 is gonna be mad tight) and the decade of a huge march forward for progressive values and shit like this is just gonna sound crazier and crazier and be more and more desperate.

Sorry, Sam, seeing right through you. It's still dog vomit. You're full of shit and you must think none of us have ever heard of the concept of silk purse/sow's ear. Pathetic fucker.

Why This article sucks ass:
1. I did not appreciate the luxury of my virginity giving it away in a basement at 16 while "Just Like Heaven" played in the background. I did not tell my parents who were supposedly guarding me for my future husband. They thought I went to the movies.
2. I can't have children. Thus, I have no reason for being. I am an empty and worthless vessel. Perhaps, if we applied economic efficiency, I was meant to be a prostitute.
3. Impermissable relationships have nothing to do with incest. Impermissable= my best friend's ex or brothers. Nasty!Gack!Holy Crap that is some sick shit!= incest, animals, and the icky gutterminds of Christian conservatives.
4. Regardless of items 1-3, I still will not molest any animals.
5. Bill's daughter probably won't marry Tommy because, hopefully, she has the good taste not to date her Dad's sloppy seconds.
6. The whole licit/illicit argument makes not a jot of sense. The dangers of illicit sex (unintended transfer of body fluids leading to pregnancy or std's, destroying your future happpiness and financial security with divorce/break-up, etc., or hurting and disappointing your loved ones- I'm sure there are a lot more) are the same regardless of the party's gender.
7. I am 36 - if I have unmarried sex, my loved ones would cheer. There is no societal disapproval. If there were, I'd still do it and lie about it.
8. I would prefer a relationship with a mother-in-law to be based upon liking rather than puppeteering. Go figure.
9. The strength of a marriage and relationship has to do with the character and integrity of both parties. WITHOUT REGARD TO GENDER!

Last time I checked hetero marriage didn't install a bullet-proof wall about a woman, install earplugs and remove her ego, or stop anyone from engaging in dominant behavior. In fact, by saying that women shoudl subjugate to their husbands, the author has just created the above, which he claims is prevented.
And now I shall go drink a lot of wine and try to get this out of my head before I explode.

I think an enormous success of feminism has been redefining marriage and showing that, while families might be the bedrock of society, the world will not collapse if we allow people to define family for themselves. Yet even with this redefinition, I, like Megan, still have major reservations about the institution. Thankfully it doesn't look like I'll have the option to marry anytime soon.

Especially since so many of my friends are being denied to right to marry.
