The Worst Sexual Double Standard in Politics Today

Meghan McCain speaks out against the Puritanism of the GOP today, in a post for The Daily Beast called The GOP Is Clueless About Sex:

Perhaps the worst sexual double standard in politics right now is that
too many subconsciously believe Republican women are void of sexual
desire altogether.

Good point, Meghan.

One wonders: How can a party opposed to sex (consciously or not) hope to succeed in life?

Seriously! John McCain's daughter makes a sensible plea for sexual education, health, and contraception to avoid unwanted pregnancies, but admits that her chances of being taken seriously in today's uptight  GOP are slim and none.

No wonder Republican identification among American voters has fallen to 20%, a twenty-six-year low. Even male GOP politicians do have sex organs, as we've noticed as of late, at least in South Carolina, and even most Republican women, being human, probably like sex.

That's just a guess.

    Well, probably as much chance as a party preoccupied with same-sex relationships.
