Representative Henry Aldridge said, "The facts show that people who are raped -- who are truly raped -- the juices don't flow, the body functions don't work and they don't get pregnant," said Aldridge, a 71-year-old periodontist. "Medical authorities agree that this is a rarity, if ever."

I guess he assumes there is rape that is not "truly" rape.

K&R the OP, the graphic rounds up a lot of bull the Republicans have claimed about rape.

That seems to be the gist of what that jerk was saying.

Plus, parodies from that Wizard of Oz song about the wicked witch of the east could be made from that one. Remember when the Munchkin Mayor went and proclaimed her "truly" dead? I can totally see a parody song happening that is based on that melody.

But I also think each of those should have a scripture attached to the end of it; some of them fit.

The one where Moses orders his men to take 25,000 Midianite virgins for their own use? Or since it was Moses, conservative male minds might consider it "legitimate rape." Or the one where the rapist has to give his victim's father 30 shekels of silver to buy her for himself to keep abusing her at his whim for the rest of her life; that would probably definitely be forcible rape, or they might decide on a new definition: Practical Rape. If they'd had cyberspace back then, they'd probably have opened up a web dating site called rapematch.com. It makes one wonder if any fathers actually bartered their daughters to rapists for 30 shekels of silver. It was a harsh world back then and women have always been a disposable commodity.

There are more, you know. It's those that are so easily skimmed by or rationalized so conveniently that are the real tells where religious books are concerned.

What about the one where the people of Sodom wanted to "have" the fair and delightsome angels who were visiting Lot, then instead Lot offers his virgin daughters to the crowd? What kind of rape would that be called?

I have to tell you, I just wrote down 2 scriptures concerning rape with the reference and they were so bad I am sure someone would want them hidden, so here are some references and people can look them up for themselves... you decide which one are legitimate and how to categorize them.

Exodus 21 : 7-11
2 Samuel 12 : 11-14
Numbers 31 : 7-18
Deuteronomy 21 : 10-14
Deuteronomy 22 : 23-24
Judges 5:30

17. Thanks, I'm tagging this LISTMANIA -I was looking for a listing of misogynistic Repub expressions
Wed Oct 24, 2012, 05:52 PM

The LISTMANIA tag is borrowed from Amazon.com which is where people create lists of items about whatever subjects.

Here is a Facebook posting I made on a radio station's website in response to some idiot named Gregg who was explaining away Romney's "Binder Full of Women" debate statement and saying it was less silly than some Biden gaffe about U.S. troops serving in "Iraq and Iran" (Biden meant to say Afghanistan instead of Iran):

@Gregg - as a friend of women type, you might be interested in this Republican Party Rape Advisory Chart explaining all the RepubliCON rape classifications -- "Gift-From-God Rape", "Legitimate Rape", "Honest Rape", "Emergency Rape", "Easy Rape", "Forcible Rape', and "Enjoyable Rape". Post #3 adds "True Rape" to the list, and Post #12 adds Paul Ryan's "Just Another Form Of Conception Rape" to the list. How can you belong to a party of such vile and filthy misogynists?
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10021624721

================================================
Oh, while this doesn't belong on a Republican rape list, this belongs on another broader list of RepubliCON cluelessness about women's bodies / abortion list:

Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) told reporters Thursday night that he is anti-abortion without exception for rape, incest, or life or health of the mother, Radio 720 WGN in Chicago reported. He defended his stance on the life-and-health exceptions by saying, "This is an issue that opponents of [pro-] life throw out there to make us look unreasonable. There is no such exception as life of the mother and as far as health of the mother, same thing, with advances in science and technology, health of the mother has become a tool for abortions for any time under any reason."

at the public teat. Not only do I have faith in our younger generations, but I also believe that attrition due to old age, the new information and social media will usher them out, yet again, to irrelevancy. Women didn't start this war, but will fight it as many times as necessary.
