4th law of robotics

one of my favorite quotes from Twisty's site (from a guest comment I believe) is that men are conditioned to think they have to ejaculate during sex. That men can orgasm without any sort of ejaculation (on command). We just choose to ejaculate to oppress and ultimately murder women via pregnancy (I think they're still using dark-age maternal death rate stats).

When you start saying stuff like that and that hetero sex is an unnatural construct I really don't see how that can be anything other than mental illness. And I don't mean that as an insult. I mean this is evidence to me of severe mental problems that require the assistance of a professional. But instead of being helped they're being egged on by their peers.

It's an entire subculture built around paranoia and hate that is actively encouraged by people who ought to know better.

Like the Klan but with official station sanction (we have womyn's studies in public university where this hate is allowed to flourish. We do not have white-power studies).
