Anti-LGBT columnist warns men: Lesbians will have your children and make you slaves

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/08/24/anti-lgbt-columnist-warns-men-lesbians-will-have-your-children-and-make-you-slaves/



The Council for Marriage Policy (CMP), a Christian anti-LGBT group that is a division of the right-wing Renew America PAC, issued a frantic warning on Friday that if same sex marriage becomes legal in all 50 states, lesbians will trick gay and straight men into fathering their children and turn them into economic slaves. According to Right Wing Watch, the 37-pragraph column was written by CMP president David R. Usher and was entitled “Our last chance to save traditional marriage.”

Usher’s dystopian screed warned that the Supreme Court will create multiple classes of marriage. In a section called “Class 1: Mother-Mother marriages,” he predicted that “[w]hen two women marry, it is a three-way contract among two women and the government. Most women will bear children by men outside the marriage – often by pretending they are using birth control when they are not.”

He continued, “Entrapped men become economically-conscripted third parties to these marriages, but get nothing in return.”

These women, he said, will also be awarded state support. He envisions a world in which women marry women, but keep the fathers of their children around and “combine incomes, double-up on tax-free child support and welfare benefits, decrease costs, and double the human resources available to raise children and run their household,” managing, purportedly, to sponge off of a lesbian wife, a cohabitating boyfriend and the government simultaneously.

"Most women will bear children by men outside the marriage"

Since his good christian men won't screw around outside of marriage, I don't see the problem. And if they do have sex that results in a baby, well, they need to own up to their responsibilities, stop whining about inconveniences, it's god's will and all (I dunno, what is it they tell women when they're justifying anti-choice laws?)

I love that he's worried poor people will find a way to decrease costs and double their resources so they can afford to raise kids, though - that's priceless.

"Oh yeah, David does not look like a Manly Man at all with his neatly parted, long hair. Wonder if he is a self repressing closet case saying this crazy stuff as a distraction."

Do you realize you have stumbled into the LGBT group?

Do you have anything in the way of proof? I am guessing not. Your accusations were homophobic in nature, and assuming someone is gay because they are anti-gay is stupid and counterproductive. This is a safe-haven group; do not indulge in homophobic speculation again.

ETA: I see you have removed the offensive statement. Good.

Not only do they get to be enslaved by strong women (!) but said dominatrices (pl.?) will take kids off their hands too.

So I hear, anyway.
