Stimulating Conversation: Why Some Female Legislators Want a Waiting Period for Viagra

April 24, 2024
A waiting period? For Viagra?

Yes.

According to Fox News, a South Carolina legislator is trying to pass a bill that would require men to wait an entire day before picking up medications like Viagra -- and to bring a note from their significant others discussing the issues in their nether regions. 

OK, this sounds absurd. But Rep. Mia McCloud is calling her proposed bill “a tongue-in-cheek response to all of the rules South Carolina’s male-dominated legislature places on abortion.” 

Surprisingly, this bill isn’t the first of its kind. In fact, Rep. Mary Lou Marzian of Kentucky proposed similar legislation earlier this year. According to CBS News, her bill would require men who want an inflated kick in the knickers to visit a doctor not once but twice to get such prescriptions. And men would have to have a note from their partners to get the A-OK. 

But that’s not all. CBS News reports that House Bill 369 also has a marriage clause in which a man must both be married and "make a sworn statement with his hand on a Bible that he will only use a prescription for a drug for erectile dysfunction when having sexual relations with his current spouse."

So just what the heck are these women thinking? 

The answer is simple. They’re going after anti-abortion advocates -- and the concept of male-dominated legislation.
