Ew, Ew, EEEEEEEWWWW!
From Hullabaloo and my favorite Godless Liberal, Pharyngula.
I can't do it anymore. I can't possibly keep up with the competition, who are willing to sink to sick, perverse depths to which the real porn kings and queens willingly immerse themselves. And they're so close to me - just a few miles to the west, across that state line.
I'm talking about South Dakota.
They're sick puppies over there. I'm feeling a little tense sitting this close to them; maybe we should put up a razorwire fence or something.
Never in my rather exotic (I thought) imagination would I dream up a scenario like the Purity Ball, where daughters gaze deeply into their father's eyes and promise
... to remain sexually pure … until the day I give myself as a wedding gift to my husband. … I know that God requires this of me … that he loves me. and that he will reward me for my faithfulness.
That is just so disturbing. Daddies of the world, keep your hands off your daughter's sexuality, OK? Raise them to be independent and thoughtful and informed and able to make their own decisions, and then just trust them.
Unfortunately, it seems that these South Dakotans raise their daughters to think of themselves as a gift to be given to a man. That might be the source of the problem right there.
Suddenly I'm hearing I will be your father figure / put your tiny hand in mine / I wil be your preacher, teacher / Till the end of time and it's even creepier than before.
Forget Kansas - what's the matter with South Dakota?
