In reply to the discussion: GOP Bill Would Force Divorcing Women To Get Permission Before Sex [View all]Lunacee_2013
(529 posts)47. This is just creepy.
Whether its the wife or the husband who has to get permission, it's still wrong. The marriage is over and no one, least of all the courts, should be telling adults who they can/cannot have consensual sex with. Even if the couple's divorce isn't finalized, it's no one's business but their own. WTF is wrong with R.J. Ross? Hey Pervert! Stay out of other people's bedrooms!

Let's hope women will find nothing better to do in 2014 than vote them out of office! What a world!

It's just really fucking creepy to butt into people's lives to this extent.

There was just that case in NYC about the woman who lost custody because she had sex.

Why did you change the headline of the article in your OP to frame it as gender specific?

Actually, it is a real headline. I was going to post the Alan Colmes article...

While it's obviously a bad bill, the headline is also deeply misleading. N.t.

1. it's not gender-specific. 2. it is specific to "in the home." 3.it's where custody is involved

It's a bad idea because it will make divorces more messy and painful more often than less.
