Sen. Bernie Sanders' Essay: Women 'Fantasize About Being Raped' | MRCTV

Quote:
"A woman enjoys intercourse with her man--as she fantasizes about being raped by 3 men simultaneously."
I mean, yes, we all know the guy is a nutcase, but I hadn't realized he was this far gone, even at a young age. Just one more case of the war on women from the Democrats.

Between sanders quote above and Hillary paying female staffers 25% less than male staffers the democrats sure are putting forth a United front on the war on women.

Excuse me but the article is right there in black & white, and to anyone with
a mere modicum of literary appreciation it is apparent that he was employing
a leading device to paint a visual which takes the reader deeper into the point
he was trying to make. It's just a hypothetical segue, not a statement.
Perhaps you should concern yourself more with what he was trying to say
rather than his metaphorical imagery. That's all it was: metaphorical imagery.

Key words : essay and 1972, what is the relavence of this? The context? I'm sure this is being taken out of context, even so i don't give a flying f what some rag says he said 43 years ago, I care what he's saying today.

Exactly.
In context it was an article about sexuality in society with a short leading example of "a" man and "a" woman with fantasies who then get all proper and go to church.
"A" man and "a" woman in his example - not all men and all women.

You can see a screenshot of the article here:

That's hilarious. I wouldn't even make a statement like that considering the Republican History on Women and Women's rights. You know, the folks who got all those "Women's" votes the last elections. How can you even seriously post something like that, when every one fro 8 to 80 knows that.

If that was supposed to be a Joke, I gotta hand it to you, its really funny slapstick comedy. .

Another important issue in the up coming election, should be a real campaign issue LOL
You're saying he's evolved since he was 31 years old?

In the mean time Governor Walker is going to sign legislation to make abortion illegal after 20 weeks without a rape or incest exception....

Talk about the real war on women. Sanders wrote that dribble before I was born.

We are saying you are taking one sentence out of context and missing the point of his article.
