Following the logic to its bitter end. Why do I do this to myself??? Vivien Send a noteboard - 06/01/2012 10:14:01 PM
Given that: Satorum believes homosexuality is horrible and rape of young boys is normal homosexual behavior rathen than abuse and rape:

The only possible logic that makes the above not gibberish is that Santorum isn't terribly concerned when women are raped but he does not like the idea of a boy or man being raped. Since rape of women is not a big deal, man rape absolutely has to go into a different category. He assumes that gay rape is done by gay men, so it's the gay that's the problem. No gay = no gay rape = no rape of men = we can go on more or less ignoring rape, rapists almost never get convicted, a woman who is not chaste cannot be raped, she asked for it, etc.

Not sure if I'm expressing it right but it's making sense in my head.


Santorum feels the need to compare homosexuality to bestiality and pedophilia. Whenever he hears the word homosexuality or gay he must go at length on how has society fallen.

In those same sentences he says only thing worse is bestiality and pedophilia. He has also commented at the past that priests raping teenage boys (that are between ages 12 to 1 is normal homosexuality and not abuse/rape.


If Santorum had instead said that an adult man in a position of authority having sex with a minor is horrible, and akin to bestiality no one would blink. Maybe in his head he can't distinguish between pedophilia and homosexuality? If the two are confused in his brain- if he thinks a normal homosexual is one that will rape a child then the vitriol makes sense. Every conversation should start with precise definitions of what people are talking about.
