They’re Still Out There…
…the fundies, that is. There may well’ve been a Democratic landslide in Congress but the religious nutjobs didn’t automagically disappear the instant the results were announced.
They’re still out there, dressing up their female children and parading them as religio-sexual fetish objects, as in this video of a Purity Ball from Florida:
They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.
But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another’s throats.
Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don’t have any kids yourself.
Philip Larkin – This Be The Verse

Shudder.
