There are so many musings on women and their sexuality, I thought it necessary to spend a few moments - having been alerted to the dangers men face from a surgical procedure that denies them their natural role as providers of the seed for procreation - to consider that role and how best to protect it from the ravages it faces in our far-too-hedonistic society.
While vasectomy frees men from the constraints of monogamy by eliminating the chance of accidentally impregnating a woman who is not his wife, the real danger isn't behavioral so much as it is anatomical. By cutting off, literally, the path to procreation, condemning millions of preborn babies from the glory of conception, the common practice of masturbation among adolescent boys and men is as dire a threat. Even a single individual poses a threat to the possibility of providing the world with as many possible partial copies of his awesomeness. Even those more likely to mourn the deaths of the several million sperm wantonly murdered are likely to indulge. It may well be the case that we need to go beyond simply passing laws; perhaps tying the hands of boys from the age of 12 or so, thus preventing the development of a habit that counters the basic physiological reality that erections aren't toys, but serve the basic biological function of procreation. It might seem harsh, but the reality is that we shouldn't allow boys in their teens, too ignorant to understand the threat they pose to the unborn, to act against nature.
While this certainly addresses one act that threatens not only the sanctity of human life, but also the natural functioning of human reproduction, I think more action is in order. Being reminded ad nauseum that males are little more than extensions of their testicles and subconscious urges it might well be necessary to sequester men away from the company of women. We men, reduced to drooling, tumescent incoherence at the mere thought of cleavage or, perhaps, even a well turned ankle should, for the sake of our own virtue, be kept away from any of those things that might prompt us to act out on those overpowering urges that rush through us from dual hearts of darkness dangling between our legs. While the small percentage of young gay men might find such cloistering to their advantage, the physical strictures mentioned earlier would already be in play.
Physically restrained from unnaturally spilling our seed, and removed from any temptation to act out the irresistible urge to copulate with any female who might present themselves - and such presentation obviously means she's aching for it; if she says, "No", she deserves what she gets, the dirty slut - I think networks of adolescent boys creating a special bond with their mothers, pledging their fealty to one another in a pact of mutual respect, with the mother taking a special interest in protecting their son's testicular wholeness would be a wonderful occasion for special celebration. We could call them Oepdipal Balls, where adolescent boys and their mothers would dress in semi-formal attire, pledge themselves to one another, with the boys refusing to dirty any female who doesn't have Mom's special allure, while Moms around the country would guard their boys' virtue, morally and physically protecting their Sack Of The Future.
We should also limit boys participation in any activity that might damage their naturally vulnerable reproductive organs. Sport and the military are obviously designed to threaten not only the life of those who participate in them. They ignore the inarguable natural reality that male's most vulnerable spot is under constant threat. Ill-suited for the rigors of combat or even a sport as seemingly benign as baseball or golf, the sanctity of the sack must be preserved. Nature, biology, and the moral demands of the unborn place a heavy burden upon men; we should surrender to the priority of the natural and sacred order that all agree - men just shouldn't be allowed to do certain things.
Once instructed and socialized with the proper attitude toward their bodies and sexuality, and safely tucked away in monogamous marriages, it is probably a good idea to keep men in the home. Once there, when women feel the need to have a child, men can be called forward to do their natural, sacred duty. Obviously, such a dirty, sinful act should bring with it feelings of physical and moral revulsion, but men should endure it for the good of the rest of society, with their eyes shut and their minds on anything other than the act itself.
We as a society seem incapable of granting both genders status as fully human persons, capable of living with and transcending the basics of anatomy and the psychological baggage with which society burdens us. I think, in fairness, rather than treating women as the weaker sex, ours would be far better to place severe restrictions upon the sexual activity of men. We have lived far too long with the delusion that we can be creatures apart from the natural order dictated by our hormones, our desires, and our physiology. It would be far better, I think, to instruct men in the simple realities with which we live.
For our own good.
For the good of the unborn whose demands upon our moral sense we need to attend.
For the good of society that needs our semen, properly placed, under the strict guidance of women who, being closer to nature than we, have an intuitive grasp of these matters.

This is hilarious! Oh, Geoffrey, this is perfect. Turn around the argument to show the sheer absurdity of it.
I'm picturing Nathan at an Oedipal Ball. That would teach him to tell me some things are "women's work."
Oh no he didn't, Lisa! THAT was a bad day for the boy...Did he forget who his mother was? Who he had been living with for the last All His Life?
Well, Richie hasn't tried that yet. Now that he's living with Keith, I'm thinking any day now.
Geoffrey, this is being shared IMMEDIATELY.
He has said it. He knows how to wind me up. He's kidding. I mean, I think he's kidding. He BETTER be kidding. But I know how to fix him. Those car keys can go missing any time I want.
Here's hoping Richie has more sense than my son.
Heh.
"Sack of the Future". Nice touch.
Thank you both. Lisa - I am quite tired of the whole rhetorical mess. The first person who comes along and says, "OK, I know you're funning, but what's the point?" will get conked.
Christina - thank you. My hope is that folks will understand that this post, as ridiculous as it is, is no less ridiculous than the oh-so-serious stuff that flows from right-wing sewers.
Alan - I tried "Sack To The Future", but it just didn't work. Still, that flux capacitor needs protecting, don't you think?
I hear you, G. Also, I tweeted this and linked it on Facebook. It's being shared on both platforms. Way to go!
Thanks, dear. I'm really proud of this. I follow Amanda Marcotte on twitter, and asked her to read it. I'm sure she gets all sorts of requests, but I'm hoping she will. I'm really proud of this one.
As you should be. It's the perfect punch back at this nonsense.
This is what results from not truly understanding the column that provoked it. You still misunderstand the point about women and their "privileged relationship to the natural world". Again, can YOU give birth? I guess as one who supports "choice", you don't see pregnancy as anything LIKE a privilege, do you?
The lame column from which you draw your snark is also based on faulty reasoning. It seems you on the left cannot get the distinction between ending life that has begun and preventing the conception of that life in the first place. You are not running on the false premise that anyone on the right wishes to legislate away your right to rubbers, are you? I know of no one who does.
But to equate life ending measures with contraception is an example of the leftist's anti-science beliefs.
Also, you seem to be favoring a rejection of God's call for holiness and the parent's duty to impart this call unto their children. Our hormonal urges might be a fact of our lives, but to let them guide our behavior is to reject God's call. Too heavy a cross to bear for some, while being heavy enough for all.
This piece would definitely be worthy of pride if it were not based on such poor thinking. It is well written, but that only shows that you can write well about less than intelligent points of view.
Art, bless you.
It is called satire. Thank you for taking it seriously, because you have, yet again, proved my point without me having to lift a finger.
I just hurt myself from laughing so hard.
I can't resist...
I will gladly have my semen strictly guided under a woman's grasp.
Hee, hee, *snicker*, *snort*
LOL!
Once again MA gets his picture in the dictionary next to Poe's Law. Hilarious.
You could probably submit this as a serious news article to World Net Daily or American Thinker, right? If MA is any indication (and I suspect he's actually reasonably high functioning compared to the avg AT/WND reader), I think you'd have a hit on your hands! :)
I'm not a fan of adverbs but that "reasonably" before "high functioning" does the heavy lifting in that sentence.
It is the Lou Ferrigno of adverbs.
ROFLMAO
OH! It's satire? Wow! How incredibly creative? No shit? Satire? Man! That's EMBARRASSING!
...that you would have seriously thought that fact lost on me. Perhaps my use of the word "snark" should have tipped you off, Yet I was commenting on what provoked it, far more than the satire itself. But then, you and "points"...not really the best of friends.
And the "knowing" condescension coming from both you and Alan toward AT & WND and their readers would be much more credible if it ever came with any kind of counterpoint to any of their articles and/or opinions. Rather, as with the Poulous piece, you merely "hold it up" without any explanation as to what exactly gets your pull-ups in a twist.
Someone's feelings are hurt.
Public sulking is never pretty. Fortunately most people outgrow it after a certain age.
There, ther, MA. Tuck in that quivering lower lip and maybe your Mommy with buy you an ice cream cone. ;)
Yeah. It must make you boys feel good to believe that I suffer from hurt feelings due to anything you might have said. But then, you don't say much, do you, so what would make you think I'm the least bit hurt? The post to which Geoffie has linked is not an expression of anything more than bewilderment at the lack of substantive rebuttal of any conservative opinion piece. As I said there, I know you boys disagree and regard it as a given. I was merely expressing how nice it would be to hear something akin to a "why?".
But if you want to see some public whining, read your own stuff regarding my commenting. Alan whines constantly about my entries and Geoff carries on as well. It's all roses and creampuffs as long as you all are alone to agree with each other. But one comment from me and you soil yourselves. Sulking would be a step up for you.
Mom didn't have money for ice cream, I take it?
Apparently de Nile ain't just a river in Egypt. LOL
"I was merely expressing how nice it would be to hear something akin to a "why?". "
Learn to live with the disappointment, twit.
love it- best thing i've read all weekend! thanks.
