*gape* *insensate noises*

Knuckle dragging moron senator says genital piercing should be illegal.

Illegal, that is, for women only of course. Nothing is said about men. Ladies, I apologize on behalf of my half of the species for this neanderthal.

"Amendment sponsor Rep. Bill Heath, R-Bremen, was slack-jawed (*As are most idiots) when told after the vote that some adults seek the piercings.

"What? I've never seen such a thing," Heath said. "I, uh, I wouldn't approve of anyone doing it. I don't think that's an appropriate thing to be doing."


Doesn't think this is an appropriate thing to be doing? Who the fuck is this moron to decide? GAH!

*This was my particular comment on "slack jawed", of course.

ya know it's congress critters like that who give * slack-jawed people* a bad name. In all seriousness, sheesh, what a moron. I personally may chose not to have any more openings on my bod other than the original issue...but if someone else wants to as long as it is legal...hell that is their choice and more power to em.

He's a senator, so obviously he knows what is best for everyone. Isn't that what he's paid to do? Pass moral judgement on things like this?

Guess what, Einstein -- I don't think it's an appropriate thing for semiconscious drooling imbeciles like you (or anyone else, for that matter) to be trying to make laws against.  Put very bluntly, IT'S NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS.
(No, really.  I mean it.  Go ahead, just TRY to come up with a rationale for making the Regulation of Interstate Commerce clause apply to it.  I dare you.  I need a good laugh.)

This is how we end up with the Thought Police.

That's going to piss off the S&M crowd, which is not something you really want to do...

I mean, imagine what the protest marches will be like !


and yeah, what a Fsck-ing moron...
Admits he knows nothing about it, but that doesn't stop him from making a snap moral judgement. GRRRrrrr!!!

I have 2 peircings there...outer labia both sides with 10 gadge rings. Hurt worse than childbirth with no drugs...which I've gone through as well. I tell people not to get them, even though I have them. It's my advice, but its up to the rest to take the advice. I'm not saying make it illegal, I'm just saying I don't recommend it. What I do think should be made illegal is those practices in countries where they cut off the girl's clit ...they call it 'birth control' so the woman doesn't enjoy sex. Mutilation by another is not ok, but feel free to mutilate yourself all you want. Just hear the warnings of others that have already done it.
