Its funny as hell! You would have to understand the context. Stance on the reproductive rights of women Oklahoma Democrat Adds ‘Every Sperm Is Sacred’ Amendment To Personhood Bill. State Senator Constance Johnson of Oklahoma City has served Oklahoma’s State Senate 2005, but the introduction of Senate Bill 1433 that really pushed her over the edge. The bill sought to define human life as beginning at the moment of conception, before it’s even implanted in the womb, and offers full legal protection to those tiny multicelled lumps. In the words of the bill, “the unborn child at every stage of development (has) all the rights, privileges, and immunities available to other persons, citizens, and residents of this state.” Johnson submitted an amendment of her own to the bill, which would have added the language, However, any action in which a man ejaculates or otherwise deposits semen anywhere but in a woman’s vagina shall be interpreted and construed as an action against an unborn child. She explained that the amendment was intended to "draw attention to the absurdity, duplicity and lack of balance inherent in the policies of this state in regard to women". Yeah, but there are some religious nutcases out there who think that way, hence all the hand wringing over masturbation - well, that and the horrid notion of people actually enjoy sexual pleasure. Such people cannot be reasoned with.
