Is Akin giving license for ill mannered men to have non-consensual sex with women

[Sheepshank]

...so long as the woman doesn't get pregnant?

potential rapists need only wear a condom, pull out, or hope the victim is taking birth control? Excellent!!!

1. They already do that.

There is another politician that said something about a woman's "juices" not flowing. That one said that women didn't get pregnant from rape too. I can't remember who it was right off the top of my head, but I do remember it was another Republican asshole.

On Edit: Here is an article about the other Republican that said that. http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Lawmaker-Says-Rape-Can-t-Cause-Pregnancy-3036411.php

You wouldn't believe how many people think like Akin, as referenced above. There are already rapists who never go to jail because they get everyone believing their side of things. If the woman doesn't get pregnant from it, the rapist gets by with it, routinely.

2. The GOP might as well put "a license to rape" on their platform

Because that's what it boils down to. They don't give a rat's ass about a woman's right to be safe.

7. That really needs to be highlighted.

9. You're damn right!

Not only do rethug men think they have a license to rape, but also to punish the woman as if it were all her fault instead of all his.

3. "ill mannered men"????????

[Sheepshank]

6. That's a play on a Rep meme I read earlier here in DU

Another Rep says that have sex with a sleeping woman is not rape, it's ill mannered.

4. Well-mannered men, too!

5. You'll note, NEVER a word about the males involved in the rape.

Just like that...legit or not legit...the males are given a pass. NOT one word about the freaks doing the raping.

It's ALL the women's fault.

8. I think it is just license for all you said, but with no exception.

See, if the woman get's pregnant it proves that it wasn't rape. If there is no pregnancy, then if the woman claims rape she is lying.

Presto Chango - no such thing as a "legitimate" claim of rape.

10. It certainly seems that way with today's Rapepublican Party
