Under a new bill proposed by a Kentucky state legislator, men seeking erectile dysfunction treatments such as Viagra, Cialis, or Levitra, would need to visit a doctor twice and get written permission from their wives before receiving the drugs.

House Bill 369 would also require a man be married and “make a sworn statement with his hand on a Bible that he will only use a prescription for a drug for erectile dysfunction when having sexual relations with his current spouse.”

Rep. Mary Lou Marzian, a Democrat from Louisville, proposed the law last week as a pointed statement to anti-abortion advocates.

“My point is to illustrate how intrusive and ridiculous it is for elected officials to be inserting themselves into private and personal medical decisions,” she told Reuters.

The proposal comes days after Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin, a Republican, signed an “informed consent” law requiring women to receive counsel from a doctor 24 hours before having an abortion.

In December, Rep. Mia McLeod, a Democrat from Columbia, South Carolina, put forth a bill in that state that would require men to wait 24 hours after receiving a prescription for an erectile dysfunction drug to fill it. Women in the state must wait 24 hours before having an abortion.

Other past attempts include a proposed “spilled semen amendment” in Oklahoma that would declare it an act against unborn children for men to waste sperm, and an amendment to a bill in Virginia requiring an ultrasound before an abortion that would mandate men have a rectal exam before being prescribed Viagra.

I never realized that a man’s erectile dysfunction issues ever endangered a separate human’s life.

Republican men legislating women’s bodies endangers women’s lives.

I can’t speak for republicans, but I have no problem with abortions when the live of the mother is at stake.

I never realized that a man’s erectile dysfunction issues ever endangered a separate human’s life. I never realized that sperm were genetically unique human beings capable of growth and development in the right environment. Weird.

Are they also going to pass a similar bill in regards to unused egg cells? Where is it that women are required by law to swear on the Bible before being allowed to do something? Is there going to be similar bill requiring women to get their husband’s permission before taking a drug to help with some sort of female sexual dysfunction problem?

A fascinating read about why some people thought it’d be a great idea to elect a meme as a president:

number 1 chan
Hello again I am 1chan, eldest of my father’s four sons.
As I said earlier, unlike my youngest brother I do not approve of the plethora of memes, photoshop fueled visual puns and puerile humour polluting the internet.

I ask again, please keep your posts reasonable in my presence from now on.

You just do not understand! Western society do to Mogwai what it has done to all of nature’s gifts.

I didn’t realize you were a fan of Charlie Chan.

I’ll probably calm down and back off the booze soon anyway. I’ve gone back and forth a few times anyway.

That doesn’t need to cost anything.
It would be dangerous for you to immediately give up but keeping a record of your consumption and carefully reducing the trend of consumption (you will have bad days where you will drink more but if you can get the direction to point away from drinking you will make progress).

Why would it be dangerous for him to immediately give up the booze? You sound like you are talking about more than just the odds of failure of successfully going cold turkey.

Some people don’t like AA, some of it’s methods are a bit cultish to be honest but it can be a good way of getting support from other people.

I didn’t know that it was cultish. I do know it helped someone I know.

As I said before no two people are identicle but resigning yourself to being soon dead is unfair on the guy you may be in the future.

I agree with Bingo here. When Bingo and I agree on something, you know there must be some truth to it.

If being dead was a goal in life I doubt you would bother to tell people about it much. You sound more like you want to live without the reliance on the liquid holiday a glass can give.
Am I wrong?

I don’t know think you are.

Going cold turkey on booze can be lethal.
It’s best to slowly reduce the trend until the habit is broken and always with medical consultation and monitoring.

Something tells me the habit isn’t broken until long after slowly reducing the trend. I would think you need to be off the booze for a long while. (not that I know a whole lot about this)

And yes while some people find AA to be helpful for others there are cultish elements so it’s not for everyone but other options are out there.

I won’t debate you. I just know it helped a person I know.

Alcoholics that go cold turkey without a proper detox process are susceptible to heart attacks, strokes and seizures. I have a friend who used to drink about a litre of whiskey a day and his doctor said if he went cold turkey without going through detox he would probably drop dead.

I didn’t know this. But I assume this is for those that drink ALOT. Right? I mean if we are talking about someone that has a couple of drinks a day and not a whole litre, and goes cold turkey, is he susceptible to heart attacks, strokes and seizures?
