Sandra Fluke is the young “lady” at the center of so much controversy surrounding her blunt testimony about the “need” for birth control and contraception, and why we the taxpayers ought to pay for it, and for her and anyone else to have as much sex as they want. The issue is not whether or not Sandra ought to be having sex – from a moral point of view she shouldn’t. Never mind that, for the moment.
Sandra is complaining that the cost of contraception is preventing her from having sex, and others as well. Rather than take on a second job, presuming she has one job under her belt already, she is addressing lawmakers on Capitol Hill in an attempt to sway them (we the taxpayer) into paying for her promiscuity and sexual escapades. The crux of her testimony is that she is being denied as many sexual encounters as she wants because she cannot afford the cost of the contraception for each individual encounter. So, what to do about that?
That anyone would be offended when Sandra is rightfully called a slut shows how much we have devolved as Americans. Would anyone have sat before congress fifty years ago and cried to its members about how unfair it is that with contraception being so expensive, having sex has become a luxury few can afford? Of course not. And although there were women of ill repute back then, they at least had sense enough not to air their dirty laundry to members of congress.
Sandra is no role model – or is she? Would you want your daughter to emulate Sandra? Would you hope your son would fall in love with a Sandra Fluke? Just how many sexual encounters, and with how many partners, does Sandra desire to be with before she gets married? Well, if we have to pay for her contraception, we have a right to know all the details, don’t we?
You might be asking, what was Sandra even doing at this hearing? This was a hearing, after-all, on Obama’s contraception mandate – a law that would force Catholic and religious institutions to provide birth control, contraception, and pregnancy ended services against their moral and religious values and convictions. Sandra was denied a seat in an earlier hearing. This was then a make-up, for Sandra. So – should religious institutions be forced to pay for contraception because some of its students are hornier than others, and their extra-curricular activities are draining their wallets?
Sandra is making a mess of “women’s rights”, and she probably doesn’t even know it. Her arrogance, her condescending attitude showed America that liberal feminists are weak, pathetic and small-minded; the lack of anything remotely intelligent in her argument showed America that liberal feminists are not smart enough to debate, and when they do they revert back into playing the victim card. In other words, it’s not Sandra’s fault she can’t afford the cost of contraception – it’s the high cost of college tuition which is draining her bank account. If only the “evil” Republicans would give her more grant money for college, and if only “evil” Republicans would give her money for contraception, she could afford the high tuition costs and have all the sex she wanted. But because Republican lawmakers, who are predominately male, hate Sandra because she is a woman, Sandra is therefore forced to succumb to the terrible burden of either having to pay for her own contraception, or to give up some of the sex she thought she had a Constitutional right to have, and to have the taxpayer pay for.
This is how liberal feminists think. They had it real easy in the 90’s under Bill Clinton. Since then, their fantasy world has come crashing down upon them as waves and waves of new conservatives win in local, state and national elections across America, and begin to implement common sense legislation – like paying for ones own contraception and not demanding taxpayers pay for it, or forcing religious institutions into becoming pimps.
What else has changed, which may be a shock to Sandra, and all liberal feminists, is how much more difficult it is for them to simply shout “women’s rights”, or “women’s health” or “right to privacy” and have everyone fall into line behind them. Because when they bring up such slogans, what they are really talking about is abortion and the killing of an unborn child – and America is wise to their shenanigans. At least, wiser than say ten or fifteen years ago.
Liberal feminists are not talking about, not fighting for, contraception which is intended to prevent a pregnancy from occurring. Liberal feminists want the contraception which ends the pregnancy after it has resulted and a human being has been created. There is a vast and fundamental difference between the two kinds of contraception, and it is for the latter liberal feminists are demanding taxpayers pay for, and religious institutions cover and provide services for against their religious convictions. Nobody is trying to take away birth control or contraception which is intended to prevent a pregnancy. But one would never know that listening to the MSM, or getting their news from HuffPost, Daily Kos, or any liberal media outlet which reports propaganda rather than facts.
As much of a flout and a floozy as Sandra is, Sandra Fluke was the best liberal feminists could do. If all she could come up with as to why the contraception mandate is a good thing, and why it ought to remain law, is so she can engage in as much free sex as she wants, and not have to pay a penny for it, or for the abortions – what does that tell you about the state of liberal feminism in 2012?
