Mike Huckabee's statement about libido:
“If the Democrats want women to believe that they are helpless without Uncle Sugar coming in and providing for them a prescription each month for birth control because they cannot control their libido or their reproductive system without the help of the government, then so be it, let us take this discussion all across America because women are far more than the Democrats have played them to be.”
set off this rant. The squiggly is your ticket to enter.
I'm not a scientific person. In fact, I'm not particularly interested in science. And I know nothing about the male libido. However, I know that women's libido is directly related to the menstrual cycle. Unlike other species (except maybe male dogs), humans can be sexual anytime during the cycle. However, women are most desirous of sexual intercourse just before and during ovulation. Nature is very clever! To me, it's all biological. But to Mr. Holier-Than-Thou, Mike Huckabee, it's all God's plan. At least, he should see it that way.
But in his sick mind, we wouldn't even have to consider abortions if those damn women would just "control their libido." You ladies wouldn't have to have all those abortions or contraceptives if you would just control yourselves. Really? Mr. Huckabee, do you really want to interfere with the natural happenings in a loving relationship? When they say it's hormonal, they're really not saying it's whore-moanal.
Remember when Mr. Huckabee lost a bunch of weight, and was extolling the virtues of eating properly and exercise? Apparently for him, his control over his weight wasn't strong enough, because it seems he's slipped a bit. I don't know if the desire to eat that donut is as strong as sexual desire. Remember, I'm not a scientist. Maybe it's even an unfair comparison. But, it's his body.
So, Mr. Huckabee, let's make a deal. You take care of your body, and let women take care of theirs. If a woman asks for your advice, by all means, tell her what you think. For the rest of us, keep your contemptuous, nasty mouth shut.
