and I found myself wondering. Was there ANY outrage by the religious right at the release of "erectile disfunction" medication? I don't remember any. Isn't it a little disingenuous of them to freak out about medication to prevent cervical cancer because it may promote "promiscuity" when one can easily argue that viagra could do the same thing?

I know that they hold different standards for the sexual behavior of (heterosexual) men and women, but isn't this going just a little far, even for them? It's blatant hypocrisy and I think they should be publicly called on it.

Just a notion.
