Good Job California!

Congratulations California, you're the first state to amend the consitution in a way to take rights away from citizens. I understand, I see your trick. Pulling the rug from under everyone, if you will. Well played, California, well played. You were getting sick and tired of people seeing our state as progressive, forward thinking, fashion forward & tolerant...nay, accepting. Who needs all that attention and responsibility, really? So good job California, you've joined the rest of the oppressive fucks.

One argument in support of Prop 8, the proposition to eliminate same-sex marriage rights, is that the California supreme court went over the heads of the people to legalize same sex marriage without a vote from the citizens. Just so you know, both the right for women to vote and the legalization of interracial marriage were made by the supreme court during a time when a majority of voters were against such rights.

Also, a point of consolation that I've been hearing has been "it's okay that Prop 8 passed, we have to make baby steps." Really? So what have we been doing since Stonewall? Fuck, what have we been doing since way before Stonewall? Were those embryonic steps?

And by the way, Domestic Partnership is not the same as marriage. Marriage gives the couple up to 3000 rights. Domestic Partnership? 27 rights. Yeah, thats fair and equal, right?

So once again California, congratulations. Who needs to be ahead? Fuck, who needs to follow the example of many other countries, like the heavily Catholic centered Spain who legalized gay marriage years ago? Good job, California.

But just for even measure, and since you're sadistic, I'm looking forward to this fight continuing so that when we win you can switch for us and be our bottom bitches.

It's a girl!!

In Bend, OR, the famed "pregnant man" gave birth to a healthy baby girl. Thomas Beatie, who was born biologically female had undergone surgery to remove his mammary glands and take testosterone, is legally a male but had decided earlier on to keep his female reproductive organs because he had always wanted to have a child. Born through c-section, the baby girl is healthy.

Monogamy is not innate

Posted by David Khalili Mon, 30 Apr 2007 20:42:00 GMT

You've heard it before and you'll continue to hear it. Many will say, "well the cavemen were monogamous, they had families and couples and only knew that sex was for reproduction."

First off, with prehistoric peoples you'd think they're primitive brain will tell them, "hey damn, that feels fucking great. What is that? Let do that again! Yea, yea that's spectacular. Let me try that again, wow, hell yea!" Rather than, "this is only to be used to create more people to help with our society and life."

Turns out not only did those dirty primitive prehistoric cave dwellers fuck for the hell of it, they engaged in *gasp* group sex, bondage, and transvestism. Word is still out as to whether fisting was ever a past time.

I'm not exactly sure how I feel ascribing the label of transvestism on the these people though, who knows what their motives were for wearing clothes of the opposite sex. Could have been sexual, could have been anything else. Also, the article doesn't explicitly state that there were same-sex sexual behavior goings-on (hot caveman on caveman action), but I would be hard pressed to believe that it never occurred. Whether or not there was a "straight" and "gay" sexual identity is another story, obviously.

You can read more here: Prehistoric peoples doing it for fun

NOTE: I'm not one of those sex nerds who tauts the belief that we can't be monogamous or that we shouldn't be monogamous or that we aren't made to be monogamous. I dig monogamy, hell, I heart monogamy. But I also think that the belief that we are only made for monogamy is totally false. It's not a matter of evolution or genes, it's a matter of what works for us at whatever moment or time in our life.

The End.
