What is “Legitimate” Rape? (You don’t even have to read)
All this talk about the phrase “legitimate rape” may have you wondering two things: 1.) Which rest-stop bathroom graffiti taught Todd Akin about the female body, and 2.) What exactly is “legitimate rape”? Well, I can’t help you with the first question (I learned sex-ed the old-fashioned way, from pornography), but singer Taylor Ferrera has provided an answer to the second with this infectiously catchy ode to rape legitimacy. Watch and learn.

I sort of wonder (and I know I’mma get slammed for this) if when he made the statement he wasn’t referring to a woman who wasn’t making a false accusation.
However, the statement that your body shuts down a baby from rape is ridiculous.
that was good. you have to check out this video. “Legitimate Rape by the Renegade Raging Grannie” it’s all kinds of awesome.

The most coherent definition I’ve heard is it’s non-statutory rape. See, there’s supposed to be statutory and legitimate rape. Ah never mind. I can’t sell it.
@LKJSlain - Yes, I agree, that’s ridiculous considering how many babies were actually produced through rape…
Back in the days all the women were chaparoned. I suppose no chaparoned women were ever raped.
Rich families can support chaparoning women. Poorer families got people who were not busy to do the chore of chaparoning.
Oh the issue is black and white….even I won’t touch that subject.
@PPhilip - Ah, but liberals felt that the culture of chaperoning stifled a woman’s freedom, so it was done away with. Let us applaud liberals for the care with which they showed for a woman’s rights.
@TheSutraDude - Glad to see that vid has made the rounds. I found it in some obscure place today and posted it to facebook.
Just for the record, “false allegations” don’t happen more often in rape than any other crime.
The rate is 2 percent…pretty much cross the board, according to the FBI.
Funny…when someone gets mugged or robbed, we don’t usually call THEM liars.
@CanuckFascist - Either that was a twist to degrade liberals or you are projecting your actual life. This line is a lie or a misquote:
“
Ah, but liberals felt that the culture of chaperoning stifled a woman’s freedom, so it was done away with. ” If I see another twisted lie I will call for your removal.
Legitimate Rape is synonomous with Forcible Rape as in an amendment co-sponsored by Paul Ryan and Todd Akin.
i wonder if there’s anyone making a survey to see the percentage of people that take the song as a sarcasm, and the percentage of people that take it seriously and nodded in approval…
Illegitimate rape is a euphemism for Congress. That’s what they don’t want you to know.
@PPhilip - You will call for my removal? *ROTFLMAO* Is THAT how you deal with discussions? Typical liberal. “Shut up or I will have you removed! You do not have the right to say anything that I do not agree to!” A lot of that has been going around up here, and we are fed up. Good to know you liberals do not believe in freedom of expression.
By the way, don’t ever threaten me again. I have contacted Xanga about your threat.
Ha! Best song ever. =)
Thanks for the post! Cool song and video
I think Tom Smith clears this whole issue up and puts the whole thing to rest…Forcible Rape is similar to having a child out of wedlock. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/pennsylvania-senate-hopeful-pregnancy-rape-similar-a-baby-wedlock-article-1.1145696
To say that a woman’s body will keep her from getting pregnant during a rape is just… Wrong. Scientifically wrong.
@CanuckFascist - Yes, LIBERALS are the group that try to censor free speech, because that’s what liberal organizations like the ACLU are known for.
And he issued nothing resembling a threat. You’re just a thin-skinned wuss-bag.
@GodlessLiberal - Offering to run to Xanga and have me ‘removed’ is a threat. I know you are an ‘famous porno star’ who is lacking in the cerebral area, but I forgive you. You may go now.
@GodlessLiberal - He threatens to run to Xanga, crying because he did not like what I had to say, yet I am the one with thin skin? See? Cerebral activity, you are lacking in this area. Stick to your whority, er I mean pornography.
@GodlessLiberal - The ACLU????? *ROTFLMAO* I am incredulous. You are serious, right? Ahem…
“1. The ACLU will FIGHT any display of Christianity and Judaism, but will happily fight for the installation of foot-baths for Muslim students and will fight for the rights of Buhuddists and Muslims in a heartbeat!”
“2. The ACLU has been labeled the American CRIMINAL Liberties Union. Why so? Because the ACLU has been fighting for pedophiles to have their websites running, with pictures of little children, tips on how to molest and trick kids into coming. The most famous ACLU fight was to keep NAMBLA’s website running. I must warn you: that site is EXTREMELY DISTURBING, as you will hear grown men teaching other grown men how to find, lure, and molest little boys. And thanks to the ACLU, the site is 100% LEGAL!! Mind you, NAMBLA’s motto is “Eight [years old] is too late”. The ACLU fought hard in court, prodding liberal judges to allow this website to continue teaching men how to rape little boys.”
“3. The ACLU likes criminals so much, they have now sued to get JAILED INMATES the right to vote. How nice is that when society’s most dangerous get to vote!”
“4. The ACLU has been fighting hard to FREE Guantanamo Bay terrorists. Mind you, unlike many people think, these guys were NOT arrested in a city. They were picked up with guns, bombs, or grenades in battlefields in Iraq and Afghanistan. These are not innocent by-standards in a street corners in NYC. These guys were caught red-handed outside the United States and outside the jurisdiction of the United States.
The last time we freed a Guantanamo Bay inmate, he went back to Pakistan and killed like 30 people. Hurraaay!! The ACLU got what it wanted!!”
“5. The ACLU no longer depends on members paying dues to fund its operations. It no lobger represents their card-toting members. It receives money from anti-American organizations and people like George Soros.”
“6. The ACLU has been considering suing the US government for building the fence on the US-Mexico border!”
That, up there, is from a group of your own Americans.
WONDERFUL ACLU MUGS
“
@GodlessLiberal - Point #3 by Canuck is totally outrageous”"3. The ACLU likes criminals so much, they have now sued to get JAILED INMATES the right to vote. How nice is that when society’s most dangerous get to vote!”" Where has a nut like that ever get such stuffZ? Anyway he is going to smear me and I have to run around putting out some of the outrageous stuff.
The spread of rumours are like tumors, if you ignore them it sort of gets worse.
@CanuckFascist - You fucking moron, the whole point was that the ACLU, a very liberal organization, is all about defending free speech. And some of the groups they defend the speech of are extreme right-wing Christian organizations like the God Hates Fags church and the KKK, so don’t bitch and moan like Christians are being oppressed by the ACLU.
@GodlessLiberal - The ACLU, from what I have seen, are irrelevant, and should be shut down. As a fascist, I do not like special-interest groups who seek to give one group priority over another. We have many such ACLU’s up here, just not so organised. I have already asked my government that they be shut down. I have been told they cannot for they have a ‘right’ to exist. I would beg to differ since they care only about their own agendas.
@PPhilip – Didn’t read the bottom, where I clearly stated the points were made by AMERICANS. Look at it again. I therefore never said them. Americans did. You are to suggest your own people lie?
“That, up there, is from a group of your own Americans.”
I have been reading up on the ACLU, as I am Canadian. I am staggered by this ridiculous organisation. It needs to be shut down.
@CanuckFascist - [ As a fascist, I do not like special-interest groups who seek to give one group priority over another.]
THAT’S THE FUCKING DEFINITION OF FASCISM!
I cannot believe there are people dumb enough to believe an ACLU would be allowed to exist in an fascist society. *rubs my temples*
@GodlessLiberal - Fascists wouldn’t answer to special-interest groups. None too bright are you? They would not be allowed to exist in the first place. Fascists seek to keep everyone equal, with the State being the end-all. Please stay in the areas you understand, like pornography and refrain from entering into discussions that are beyond your ken.
P.S. Read that definition again. There is nothing about fascism that would identify it with special-interest groups. Reading comprehension much?
*ROTFLMAO @ the ACLU being equated with fascism*
Why on earth are so many of you trying to argue with a raving maiac? His handle says it all “CanuckFacsist.”
@DEISENBERG - Touche, and point taken. All “discussion” will be terminated.
@CanuckFascist - The ACLU does more to defend Christianity than any other legal organization in this country, bar none. This is particularly true with religious speech issues.
Over recent decades, the ACLU has been responsible for a significant majority of the most important legal victories for Christians in this country. You can find a more recent list on their website, here.
@DEISENBERG - Yes, I am a raving ‘maiac’. *ROTFLMAO*
@UTRow1 - Ah, but I do not wish to see Christianity defended. I do not wish to see ANY religion defended. We are simply too advanced to bother with fairy tales and mysticism. I merely point out the ACLU simply should not exist. As a fascist, it is the GOVERNMENT’s job to ensure equality in a society, not some special-interest group that was created by Jews and Blacks. Don’t believe me? Look it up.
I have read many instances where the ACLU has ‘defended’ minorities to the point of taking away the culture of the founders of the United States of America. That I would not allow. The ACLU has too much power, power enough to push forth THEIR agendas. A government should never allow this kind of power to exist outside of themselves. That is insane. It creates disorder.
Ahem…
“The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) files many lawsuits but there was one filed against a small school district in Tennessee recently that caught my eye and the attention of the American Center for Law and Justice.
In its never-ending quest to remove all things religious from public life, the ACLU filed a federal lawsuit against the Wilson County School System outside of Nashville, Tennessee. This suit clearly represents a frontal attack on prayer in public schools. Wilson County has to defend its right to allow the free exercise of religion in a public elementary school. The school system, along with its director and Lakeview Elementary School principal, are being sued by two parents on behalf of their son, a former Lakeview student. The ACLU filed suit against two teachers as well. We represent the school principal and two of the teachers who have been sued for what the ACLU calls illegal acts that took place during the 2005-06 school year. What exactly are these illegal acts?
The complaint alleges that the See You at the Pole event a student led, student-initiated event which takes place at schools nationwide each September constitutes a violation of the Establishment Clause of the United States Constitution. In fact, the ACLU asserts that students and others read passages from the Bible, prayed, and made references to Jesus Christ and Christian music. The ACLU has alleged that the See You at the Pole event was unconstitutional despite the fact that former President Bill Clintons administration issued Religion in the Public School Guidelines that specifically say that the See You at the Pole event is constitutional and appropriate on public school campuses.
Not satisfied with simply removing student prayer at the See You at the Pole event, the ACLU has also sought to stop a parents group that meets on campus on a monthly basis to pray for the school, faculty, staff and students. The ACLU asserts that this prayer activity also constitutes illegal acts that must be stopped. The idea of parents gathering at their childrens school to pray should not pose a constitutional threat to anyone. If equal access means anything, you would think that it allows for parents to be given the same access rights as anyone else. If they want to pray, they have the constitutional right to do so.
And there is more. The ACLU also has alleged that school districts participation in the National Day of Prayer is also a constitutional violation. The National Day of Prayer has been part of our national landscape for some 55 years. It was established in 1952 by a joint resolution of the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman.
Still not satisfied, the ACLU also attacked the school districts annual Christmas concert. Specifically, the ACLU actually alleges in their complaint that, The Plaintiffs had no objection and were not offended by the Christmas program until its conclusion. They went on to allege that at the conclusion of the program, several kindergarten students role-played a nativity scene of the birth of Jesus. Then students had the audacity to sing Away In The Manger and Joy To The World, which are, according to the ACLU, exclusively Christian in nature, celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
Most of us understand that a school doesnt endorse everything it fails to censor. What happened in this Tennessee school district happens at countless school across the country. But this time the ACLU took a stand a troubling stand aimed at censoring the constitutionally-protected Christian message.
In the past, the ACLU the so-called champions of free speech have sought to protect students right to engage in protest activities on public school campuses and fought to protect speeches that are suggestive and inappropriate all activities that the ACLU claims is protected by the First Amendment. However, when students gather around a flag pole to pray or participate in the National Day of Prayer events, the ACLU says that activity is not protected by the First Amendment but instead is a violation of the First Amendment.
The ACLU would do well to remember a landmark Supreme Court case from 1969 a case that actually involved the ACLU itself. The high court 38 years ago held that students do not shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate. The fact is that the Supreme Court has long held that theres no constitutional conflict when students exercise their freedom of religion in public settings even in public schools.”
