Matt Walsh, a dingus who writes for Glenn Beck's Flaming Internet Hole, presents a science-based case against The Pill, which he has discovered is really, really bad for women, because SCIENCE. For one thing, he read a genuine medical study that found "women who took chemical birth control at any point in their lives show a 50 percent higher likelihood of developing a certain type of brain tumor." That's scary! Also it means that The Pill lets men have consequence-free sex, while women will all die of diseased brains!
But if all the "wimps" are with the women on the pill, that would mean all the alphas are with the women who aren&#039t. Therefore, the only genes being passed on would be the most masculine. So, Matt should be pleased as punch that the pill is actually making more John Wayne&#039s and Frank Sinatra&#039s. No?
Also, I really don&#039t want to know how long it took to find that gif.
The little blue <strike>birth control</strike> pill is a dramatic and potentially harmful &ldquo;medication&rdquo; designed to &ldquo;cure&rdquo; a natural function of an elderly man&#039;s <strike>a woman&rsquo;s</strike> body.
It was a good thing no children or small animals were in my path as I rushed out to take this nitwit seriously, or I&#039;d have had that on my conscience come Judgment Day.
Okay, so is this &quot;theory&quot; better or worse than Swanson&#039;s &quot;The pill leaves tiny dead fetus bodies in your uterus&quot; one? I feel there must be some sort of hierarchy here.

The alternative explanation--that his mysogyny is repulsive to women--just isn&#039;t something he can accept.

FIFY.
Stop making sense.

I dunno about trust, but I&#039;ve been happily snipped since 1992.

Lets make a list:
Cons: Birth control might possibly contribute to cancer in 2 of 100,000 women.
Pros: What&#039;s got amount to several hundred thousands of pregnancies prevented for those same women.
Unrelated Fact: Rate of maternal mortality in childbirth in U.S. estimated at 18.5 mothers died for every 100,000 births.
Running Utility calculation.... calculating.... calculating....
I bet Walsh has no problem with a little blue pill that frees him from his old white male biology.
They speak at them all the time. <i> Listening,</i> eh, not so much.
The only explanation that fits the facts is that they must value dying in childbirth as somehow significantly less bad than dying from cancer.
Either that or they are ignorant assholes, but I repeat myself.
<i>This isn&rsquo;t conservative antifeminism, this is just science, and you should be terrified by it, ladies!</i>
I don&rsquo;t know why, but for some reason, I just don&rsquo;t trust him.
