Rush Limbaugh: How You Too Can Harass Women
Late last week, Rush Limbaugh decided to revive his rants against Sandra Fluke. It turns out to have been a warm-up for a truly epic exercise in knuckledragging sexism that he delivered to his listeners Monday. Crooks & Liars‘ John Amato has some background:
I’ve been trying to figure out where Limbaugh came up with the idea that Liberals don’t want men to look at women anymore and I found a ridiculous article by a weirdo named Patrick Howley on The Daily Caller that probably fed him his gibberish. … Rush Limbaugh obviously needed some material today so he pounced on this.
LIMBAUGH: I know a lot of you, you hear this thing — a bunch of leftists want to try to stop men from looking at women and you think, ‘they can’t do that.’ That’s not the point. Whether they can or can’t, it will gain momentum. And it may not be for years, but this is who they are. This is — this is how inane and inviolate they are of basic human nature. It’s one of the biggest ways to understand liberals. They just despise human nature and try to alter it and change it and create it. Because many of them just don’t fit in with it in many ways. But there’s a way around this, guys. You got to have fun with this kind of stuff, as you know. So let me offer a first suggestion, the first way to deal with this that came into my mind. You find yourself staring, looking at, casually glancing at a woman, but you know that it’s now socially taboo. You shouldn’t be doing it. And you think everybody is noticing you doing it and condemning you in their minds. You shouldn’t — so you walk up to the woman and say, “Will you please ask your breasts to stop staring at my eyes?”
Try that. Might help. And you don’t know ’til you try it.
