In March, Texas State Rep. Jessica Farrar, D-Houston, filed a bill that would penalize men for "unregulated masturbatory emissions" and the bill has now made its way into the hands of the Texas State Affairs Committee on Tuesday.

The committee is typically the panel that hears abortion-related legislation and it will now address Farrar's House Bill 4620, which is named the "Men's Right to Know Act."

"A lot of people find the bill funny," Farrar told Chron.com in March. "What's not funny are the obstacles that Texas women face every day, that were placed there by legislatures making it very difficult for them to access healthcare."

This is one answer to idiotic Republican attacks on the female body. LOL

I'm not sure I understand this properly and I've read the article twice.

Where does life begin? Some say with conception, making women the bearers of all the pain of an unwanted pregnancy.

So, just as arbitrary a position is to say that life begins with the lone sperm. Hence, masturbatory emissions are a form of homicide. Men should be forced to carry their sperm to full term...whatever that means. Probably an accidental wet dream. (But then there's the question of whether they were faking it.)

Incidentally, Republicans in Texas are countering by working on a bill that makes it a crime to have your monthly period. Masterbation Bill in the Hands of the Texas State Affairs Committee 1366281442

One politician idiot wants women who have miscarriages to carry the dead fetus for a full 9 months. Now she is backtracking on what she said: http://www.newsweek.com/iowa-abortion-shannon-lundgren-miscarriage-dead-fetus-term-577289

Actually the caption to one of the photos explained it better than the original article:

"Rep. Jessica Farrar, D-Houston, is making a point about legislation that restricts women's access to healthcare and abortions by proposing to fine men $100 when they masturbate. Alongside the penalty for wasting semen not resulting in a pregnancy, Farrar's bill would require a "medically unnecessary digital rectal exam" before any man undergoes a vasectomy or can be prescribed Viagra."

Thanks Eddie. I'm now a Japanese, lesbian, mermaid.

I've been following this trans-racial, trans-gender, trans-species fad. Fascinating.

Although you've always been way ahead of us anyway, with that beard.

Hope you're cool. Might drop by soon again, when I'm back on land (#mermaidJokes)

Check the whites of his eyes. If they are still greenish, or purple, he has not.

You saw Twilight, did you not?

Hairy palms and a big wet spot on his trousers.
