POLITICSCruz Said Americans Don’t Have “Right” To Masturbate. His College Roommate’s Response Is PERFECT

Ted Cruz (R-TX) is well known for his tyrannical puritanism and unhealthy aversion to anything sexual. He’s spent his entire life shaming people for expressing their natural sexuality – especially women. Cruz never grew or even deviated from his smug and self-righteous imposition of his own morals on those around him, from that time he was in college and called his friend’s mother a “whore” for her abortion to his recent assertions that he would force women to carry their rapist’s baby to term.

As a solicitor general, he argued that Americans have no right to sell sex toys or even have the right to masturbate at all. “There is no substantive-due-process right to stimulate one’s genitals for non-medical purposes unrelated to procreation or outside of an interpersonal relationship” he argued in defense of a state ban on dildos in 2004, as apparently they are “obscene” devices that likely contain demons that are released upon orgasm or whatever primitive nonsense that evangelicals use to justify the imposition of Christian sharia law.

Ted Cruz’s roommate in college, however, has a very different story to tell.

Craig Mazin ✔ @clmazin
Ted Cruz thinks people don't have a right to "stimulate their genitals." I was his college roommate. This would be a new belief of his.

and called his friend’s mother a “whore” for her abortion

Sorry for not being very religious but... Jesus fucking Christ!

Does he really think any woman wants an abortion? Or deserves to be called a "whore" for liking a guy in a natural and instinctive/biological physical way? Or anyone should be made to feel bad about themselves for touching themselves where it feels particularly good and does no harm to anyone. Sometimes i hate assholes. Not that anatomical assholes are a bad thing. Saying mean stuff to a woman who had to make a terrible choice in order to have a safe procedure but will probably always have second thoughts about it is truly revolting. I have sympathy for everyone who has masturbated or had to make an extremely difficult choice in their lives (as a man, I will never have to make that most difficult choice, but I will always give proper respect to the women that do have to make that choice). Writing this is one thing but i am still mad at Ted Cruz for even thinking it let alone saying it. I was hoping that I could get over it by discounting his idiocracy, but I am still appalled by his words.

He previously worked for St. Regis Paper, who landed a big contract from Penthouse Magazine to supply the paper for their magazine.

One day at lunch, around a table of five or six of us in the company cafeteria, he was talking about a big quality problem they had. They weren't very experienced in producing that heavy, glossy stock. Not realizing what he was saying, he said they "were having problems because the pages were sticking together"! Damn, we all fell off our chairs.

Many years ago my doctor recommended it for my health. Last week my Urologist told this 67 year old man that I have the prostrate of a 20 year old.

What Ted knows and is not telling everyone else is that if you don't sin, Jesus died for nothing.

I saw this on fox news

BTW, we wouldn't even be talking about this if Cruz weren't such a creepy hypocrite. He brings this scrutiny on himself.

Not only did he masturbate (like most people he looks down on) but he couldn't even do it quietly?

Not that there is anything wrong with that, just that Cruz pretended in public that it was wrong. SO what else has Mr. Moral gone on about that we should look into next?

It's simply astounding to me how many people labor under this fantasy that they're going to be able to outlaw masturbation, from Pat Robertson to Gail Dines.

Seems an odd way to pleasure oneself, so to speak.

He was all bent out of shape that the Supreme Court might make it so states couldn't outlaw Blasphemy, Masturbation, etc. etc.

Most sane people recognize this crap as total bugfuck lunacy, unfortunately every once in a while we get a thread on DU where some "progressives" show up who want to legislate what consenting adults can do in private, too.
