Vagina Crimes at The Onion — morning linkage

Kait sent me to a femi­nist web­site so I could follow a link to The Onion where this little gem was posted.


If Wan­ting To See Vagina’s is A Crime, Then I, your Honor, Am Guilty.

My only fear is that someone will think they’re serious.

Enjoy.

I’m out to buy paint for some touch –ups. Have to get this place beau­ti­ful and comfy before I start the full time daily grind — next week.

  • huh. It’s been a while since I’ve read something from the Onion that was as good as that. Won­der if I’ve been mis­sing something

  • I’m with the wom­bat. I haven’t read The Onion in awhile because I wasn’t fin­ding it all that funny.

    Your right some idiot is going to read that while he’s sip­ping on his Pabst Blue Rib­bon. He’ll be sha­king his head and going “yeah, right on”.

    I can’t even choose my favo­rite part.

    Of the article.

  • “Pabst Blue Rib­bon” pfft — kids these days.

    I read this ear­lier — wasn’t about to be the first to com­ment on an article about Vaginas.

    Call me a coward.

    That was great parody. That some will be too obtuse to unders­tand it for what it is is what makes it scary.

    “As long as we’re at it, why don’t we put every man who desi­res to see the vagi­nas of unk­nown women on some kind of natio­nal data­base and make him go door to door telling all of his neigh­bors, “I like vagi­nas! I like vaginas!”

    Good Parody is hard to come by. I will savor this, yet I will not be sur­pri­sed when my wife tells me of such an argu­ment being used in one of her court cases.

  • Jacob — ditto.

    “Is not the pur­suit of hap­pi­ness a fun­da­men­tal right pro­mi­sed by our nation’s own Dec­la­ra­tion of Independence?”

    Don’t think for a minute that argu­ment will not be used by some idiot.

    Pabst Blue what?

  • Mmmm, parody. Tasty :P

    I too, shall paint. But not this wimpy touch-up stuff. I shall do whole ROOMS!

    I gotta stop drin­king so much coffee.

  • i’m glad you liked it. it’s fine satire.

  • I thank Kait.

    I thank you.

    Most of all I Thank God for vaginas.

    Some asshole will use that argu­ment in court one day, that is what makes it a good parody.

  • I do love The Onion. :)

  • What the other’s said.

    This was an easy one.

    Haven’t read it in a long time, thanks.

  • I should never have read this article prior to going to the farmstand.

    There I was, min­ding my own busi­ness when a woman I barely knew came over and star­ted to chat. I knew she was trying to deter­mine if I was a vegan or vege­ta­rian (I am neither) but I was not about to get into a meat-eating debate at a farms­tand which caters to the anti-meateaters and sells tofu in (too) many dif­fe­rent forms.

    Last time I got into a debate at this place, I made some com­ment about how PETA stood for peo­ple eating tasty ani­mals. I was being sauer­krau­tish, of course, but some of the vegans within earshot gave me some really, really dirty looks.

    This time, I was being care­ful. As one should be in the land of the holy-rolling Amish and Mennonites.

    So, there I was. Being asked about being a vege­ta­rian. To which I ans­we­red something along the lines of how I thought it would be okay to be a vagi­ta­rian at some points while at other points nee­ding some meat to satisfy those cra­vings. Oh, the looks.

    Now they think I’m gay.

    Wait until Her­self hears about this one.

    Thanks, Coo­per.

  • The wheels of jus­tice turn slow for the crank.

  • Now that was funny shit from the Onion. Of course, I wouldn’t worry about anyone taking the Onion seriously… unless they hap­pen to also believe in those Vam­pire Red­necks that the Weekly World News has been wri­ting about recently…

  • sauer­kraut:

    Your wel­come. I think.

    Doug: And I fell into a bur­ning ring of fire.

    Jason: You must have been pos­ting as I was commenting.

    You’d be sur­pri­sed at what peo­ple believe Jason.
    Maybe not.

  • The onion has been “hit and miss” of late. I did enjoy the article. Yeah for vaginas!

  • I can only concur.

  • God I love the Onion.
