You have consent for the whole procedure. It's not like you have consent for every specific element in the procedure. You consent for the entire procedure and this step is merely one element in that procedure which is no more invasive than the procedure itself.Guyr Adamantine wrote:Without consent, dipshit.

The procedure requires this, unlike the vaginal probe. Another difference, the fact you're ignoring this in your counter kind of horrifies me, the abortion procedure requires consent.tzor wrote:Well if we go by my argument that the abortion procedure itself requires a more evasive penetration into a woman's vagina

The degree of invasiveness is irrelevant. If I stick my entire penis into someone it is more invasive than if I stick just the tip in, but whether or not either is a problem is entirely dependent on whether or not the person I'm sticking it in wants me to or not, not how far it goes in.

Searching for something? Not at all. They're not sticking things up your ass because they have some useful purpose. They're doing it just because the state wants people who board airplanes to have things stuck in their ass first. See, you have to understand that the probe being put in the woman's vagina is not medically necessary or in anyway related to the medical procedure she's requesting. It doesn't do anything in the context of the abortion procedure or even pre-abortion examination.virgil wrote:Cavity searches?FrankTrollman wrote:Tzor, if you really really want to double down on your claim that shoving inanimate objects up a woman's vagina against her will is not rape and totally fine, how would you feel if TSA decided to shove a probe up your ass whenever you wanted to board a plane?
Now, I'd still say Frank's example is bad for a different reason. It's really hard to imagine the State of Texas wanting to punish people for boarding airplanes, because no one actually hates people who ride airplanes. But does the State of Texas want to punish women for getting abortions? Uhh, yeah. Definitely. So when you read between the lines of the law in question, it reads: "You want to get an abortion? Fuck you. The supreme court won't actually let us stop you, but they haven't told us we can't try to punish you for it. So if you want that abortion, you're going to have to let us shove this in your vagina." There's no redeeming purpose. It's just a pathetic, transparent attempt to punish and shame women who want abortions using penetration of the vagina, and it's that motivation that really drives home the WTF factor; this law is explicitly meant to be sexual violence against women seeking abortions.

Neeeek, I am not sure we really want to go there. Can't give you the links right now because I'm at work but I believe sensitivity is concentrated more on the open end than near the cervix so your example is equally invasive either way.Neeeek wrote:The degree of invasiveness is irrelevant.

Perhaps it should require this. One of the results of the whole Roe vs Wade etc rullings is that abortion as a procedure generally falls under the radar of good practice. Malpractice and procedural mistakes are easily swept under the rug through "privacy" laws.virgil wrote:The procedure requires this, unlike the vaginal probe.
You know if a guy is getting a prostrate biopsy, using this device is often necessary, even though the equipment is far larger than the needle used for the biopsy, I wouldn't say that I'm getting but fucked because of the procedure.

Hell, why go halfway?
What if the law required the doctor to put his penis in the woman's vagina before she could have an abortion?
Rape or not, Tzor?
Then tell us why the transvag probe is more valid than the doctor's penis, when neither is required for the abortion procedure.

He typed that is response to you quoting a source that claimed rape could only occur with penis in vagina sex. Clearly if you were remotely honest or intelligent, you would have recognized that he did not state a complete definition.tzor wrote:Apparently I am the hypocrite (and a terrible person as well). I’m not the one using hyperbole with the notion that, as Frank States, “Forcing any object into a woman's vagina is rape.” So what definition of the word do you wish to use
You want to know what definition to use for rape? How about this one motherfucker:
a. An actor is guilty of aggravated sexual assault if he commits an act of sexual penetration with another person under any one of the following circumstances:
(1) The victim is less than 13 years old;
(2) The victim is at least 13 but less than 16 years old; and
(a) The actor is related to the victim by blood or affinity to the third degree, or
(b) The actor has supervisory or disciplinary power over the victim by virtue of the actor's legal, professional, or occupational status, or
(c) The actor is a resource family parent, a guardian, or stands in loco parentis within the household;
(3) The act is committed during the commission, or attempted commission, whether alone or with one or more other persons, of robbery, kidnapping, homicide, aggravated assault on another, burglary, arson or criminal escape;
(4) The actor is armed with a weapon or any object fashioned in such a manner as to lead the victim to reasonably believe it to be a weapon and threatens by word or gesture to use the weapon or object;
(5) The actor is aided or abetted by one or more other persons and the actor uses physical force or coercion;
(6) The actor uses physical force or coercion and severe personal injury is sustained by the victim;
(7) The victim is one whom the actor knew or should have known was physically helpless, mentally defective or mentally incapacitated.
Aggravated sexual assault is a crime of the first degree.
b. An actor is guilty of sexual assault if he commits an act of sexual contact with a victim who is less than 13 years old and the actor is at least four years older than the victim.
c. An actor is guilty of sexual assault if he commits an act of sexual penetration with another person under any one of the following circumstances:
(1) The actor uses physical force or coercion, but the victim does not sustain severe personal injury;
(2) The victim is on probation or parole, or is detained in a hospital, prison or other institution and the actor has supervisory or disciplinary power over the victim by virtue of the actor's legal, professional or occupational status;
(3) The victim is at least 16 but less than 18 years old and:
(a) The actor is related to the victim by blood or affinity to the third degree; or

(c) The actor is a resource family parent, a guardian, or stands in loco parentis within the household;
(4) The victim is at least 13 but less than 16 years old and the actor is at least four years older than the victim.
Sexual assault is a crime of the second degree.

See the part where it states insertion of an object into the vagina? Stop supporting the rape of people who want abortions.
Actually, yes it's exactly like you have consent for every specific element of the procedure. If you do not consent to every element, than you did not consent. Now, if you signed a document, that states you consent to the whole procedure, but one part of that procedure is medically irrelevant, provides no benefits whatsoever, and is invasive, and your doctor did not inform you in advance that that one element is medically irrelevant, then you did not have informed consent, and therefore, you were fucking raped.tzor wrote:You have consent for the whole procedure.

The requirement by law of this procedure* is simply the state saying "We control your vagina." If a woman doesn't listen to these misogynistic shitheads and abstain from sex, and then doesn't do what they want and carry an unwanted baby to term this requirement lets the state jump in at the last minute and say "Nu-uh bitch, we own you."
Any defense of this "element of a procedure"** is rooted in slut-shaming. It exactly the same as a rapist saying "I couldn't have raped her your honor, everyone knows she's easy."
*Rape

I don't actually see any problems with it if we're being strictly technical. It's obviously (hopefully?) not how a judge would rule given how totally not the purpose of the law that is, but it sounds like having sex during a crime is aggravated sexual assault.Kaelik wrote:a.

Oh look, at first Tzor said it was stupid to call a rape rape. Then when asked to give any argument for why, he said it didn't meet the definition. Then when he was given an actual criminal definition of rape from a criminal code, he called the argument stupid.
It's not because Tzor is a fucking coward who is clearly wrong, and that this is clearly rape, and that actual criminal definitions of rape and informed consent prove this. Can't be that.
He's just resorting to insulting us and pretending the last eight posts didn't happen for some other reason.

Maybe we can propose a new angle on the abortion legal gymnastics and introduce legislation that will force anti-choice organizations to automatically foot the medical bills for all pregnancies that they bully women into carrying to term? Additionally, if the woman still chooses to not keep it, they're responsible for the adoption and care, etc.
This should be cool, right? I mean, we will have passed a law and everything. I wonder how long it would take to bankrupt those organizations under such policies?

Let me tighten that up for you:
And, because I actually believe in answering people's points and not evading them:
If they are done because some asshole in congress thinks they have a right to do one before you get your constitutional rights, they are.
This is clear to everyone but you, for some reason.
If my doctor wanted to shove a scope in my ass before I could get my appendix out, I would call him a rapist too.
