Lysistrata or Masturbation
Thursday, 8 November, 2007MBR writes in response to my post “How to stop OUR wars – The manual“:
“The strategy should really be summed up by an acronym: SEAL. Sabotage, Educate, Arrest and… Lysistrata.”
Then MBR launches into a long string of curses directed at the men who salivate over wars and mayhem, and points out that it is men who are responsible for the “deaths of our children, husbands and brothers” in unjust and morally reprehensible wars.
I beg to differ.
While it is true that politics worldwide is dominated by men, we must not overlook the examples of women who are in politics as well as those who vie for seats. Take Hilary Clinton: the woman has already admitted she’d be happy to start genocide in Iran.
I do agree with MBR though that politics is dominated by men, and I would add – by deranged old men. Old men are precisely why I did not include Lysistrata in my post.
Our politics are dominated by old men who no longer get any sex, because… they can no longer raise it for a woman. The only way they can get an erection and subsequently any kind of sexual pleasure is by jerking off over mass graves. For them the only woman worth unzipping their pants for is… a bullet ridden pregnant woman’s decomposed body.
