Oh, shut up

Just shut the fuck up, Bristol Palin. There is so much wrong with this statement. First, it should be "unprotected sex" because that's what she had and that's why she got pregnant. Lots of teenagers have sex without any consequences because their parents aren't ignorant dumbasses who think preaching abstinence to horny teens will actually work. Or because those teens, despite government and parental stupidity in not providing comprehensive sex ed, figured it out on their own. Second, why just "girls," Bristol? It still takes two to make a baby. Sure, it's usually the female who ends up with the shit end of the stick when there's an unintended pregnancy that doesn't result in the couple actually staying together. And in my opinion, the statement that "nobody would be having sex" just adds to the impression that women can't be sex-positive and that sex is inherently bad. Shame! Shame!

Compare that to Monday night's Colbert Report with Megan McCain as guest. Sure, she may be one of those Republicans who need to go ahead and admit that they're really not already, but I liked quite a bit of what she had to say. She's pro gay marriage and she describes herself as sex positive. And she's ballsy in a good way. She talked about wanting to speak out about being sex positive after seeing Bristol Palin on her stupid "abstinence tour."

Ugh. Flaunting your baby as the bad consequences of getting laid is the most evil thing anyone could ever do. Not only is it unfair to the kid - who didn't ask for your dumb ass to have him - but also? Babies should not be a punishment. And the real message is "learn about how to PREVENT pregnancy, whether you're going to be knockin' da boots or not." Besides, is it some shocking revelation that when you have unprotected sex, you might end up making a baby? Are you really that daft that you don't know that's where babies come from? On some level, Bristol and Whathisface knew what they were doing. They were stupid teens in love, who thought they were going to get married and have a baby and be together forever. So, just shut it, Bristol. No one cares.

I absolutely LOVE what you wrote. Everyone I knew was having sex in high school and no one got pregnant because no one was retarded about it. I'm tired of people trying to make sex seem shameful and dangerous and evil to our children. It's like anything else, just be careful.
