She was on to something. I've had more love and kindness shown to me from complete strangers than my entire family combined, who live to spite me. I keep telling my mom that people are generally good, it's what's got us living in the modern age, it's just that capitalism keeps the good people from sticking together.

    This was written 7 years ago, so maybe she's completely disowned these views since but I certainly haven't seen shit and people seem to think it's not a big deal because she doesn't talk like this in public as much anymore and supports M4A.

      oh damn that is pretty fuckin reactionary. I'm glad she disowned it but uhhh, not a good look either way. Thanks for that

      No idea what that's saying without context. She says we need "sexual ethics" - couldn't that mean anything (including things like respecting consent)? "Libertine" sexuality is cool, but people (especially religious ones) can have a more conservative personal approach to sexuality if they want - that's not the same as slut-shaming or fighting against biology. I.e. you can be a literal volcel if you want.

      Or am I missing something?

        no you're wrong nobody should ever talk to her or her husband about completely unrelated topics again
