In Case You Were Wondering...
... Whether or not Mark Steyn is a nut, today I read a National Review article of his "MarkSteyn,Nut-At-Large" in which he predicts that a woman's right to reproductive choice will inevitably lead to a world-wide rape epidemic and global sex-slave industry.
As a general rule, large numbers of excitable lads who can't get any action are not a recipe for societal stability. Unless the Japanese have invented amazingly lifelike sex robots by then (think Austin Powers's "fembots"), we're likely to be in a planet-wide rape epidemic and a world of globalized industrial-scale sex slavery.
Gee. Shouldn't predictions be... a little more futuristic? But here's a better prediction that isn't a prediction either: What if women in countries where males are preferred to females were magically granted the same rights as women in the west? Maybe then sex selection would tilt in favour of girls and the world would be full of sugar and spice and everything nice instead of raping sex traders.
Sigh. How come I'm the one who's supposed to give up my rights, when he's the one who's crazier'n a bag of hammers?
