Democrats are not serious people so why would they introduce serious legislation? In reaction to a bill that stops doctors from killing unborn babies once a heartbeat is detected, a Georgia lawmaker introduced a bill to regulate men’s testicles as well as their porn and Viagra consumption. You know, because dudes watching porn is exactly the same thing as women terminating pregnancies as a matter of convenience.
After the Georgia House passed HB 418, known as “the heartbeat bill” that bans most abortions after 6 weeks of pregnancy, State Rep. Dar’shun Kendrick introduced a bill in response.

“You want some regulation of bodies and choice? Done,” said an angry Kendrick.
Called the “Testicular Bill of Rights” Kendrick thought she was being clever in proposing the following restrictions on men’s junk:
Require men to obtain permission from their sex partner before they are able to obtain a prescription for Viagra or any erectile dysfunction medication.
Ban vasectomy procedures in Georgia, both in part or whole, with the name of punitive measures for performing the procedure that are listed in HB 481.
Make it an “aggravated assault” crime for men to have sex without a condom.
Require DNA testing when a woman is 6 weeks and 1 day (to be performed before she is 8 weeks) to determine the father of the child who shall IMMEDIATELY start paying child support.
A 24 hour “Waiting period” for men to purchase and porn or sex toys in the state of Georgia.
Keep in mind that this isn’t just something Kendrick tweeted in a failed attempt at sarcasm, she actually introduced the bill to the Georgia State legislature. She explained her reasoning to WAGA:
“If you’re going to regulate women’s bodies, why not do the same type of regulation on men’s bodies?” Kendrick asked.
Because these two things are not the same, that’s why not. Keeping women from killing their unborn babies after a certain point in the pregnancy is radically different than banning men from getting vasectomies or making them wait before buying sex toys.
Men don’t carry babies so there really is no male equivalent to a law that places certain restrictions on abortion. Maybe if Kendrick introduced a bill that banned men from blowing up their scrotums with M-80’s, but even that isn’t close.
“[The bill is designed] to show how ridiculous it is that any state government should regulate what people do to their bodies,” Kendrick said.
There’s a ton of laws on the books that regulate what people can do with their bodies. Suicide is technically illegal, though rarely prosecuted especially in successful suicides. There’s all kind of dangerous drugs that are banned and illegal for people to use and abuse. People who mutilate their own bodies are institutionalized because they represent a danger to themselves. People under 18 can’t legally get tattooed.
Why is saying that there should be some reasonable restrictions on taking a human life so ridiculous? Unborn babies have bodies too and they should have a say whether mommy is going to snuff out their little lives.
“I am a staunch, pro-choice Democrat that was elected by 54,000 people to come down there and fight for them. That’s what I’m doing is fighting,” said Kendrick.
Really? The people of Kendrick’s district elected her to introduce joke legislation? I bet that’s not what she ran on at all. “Vote for me and I’ll make a mockery out of the legislative process and embarrass the shit out of each and everyone of you.”
Dar’shun Kendrick didn’t have to introduce the “Testicle Bill of Rights” to prove she’s completely nuts. I think was already painfully evident.
