George Galloway - insertion not rape

[stargirl1701]

Just read a tweet where it is suggested former MP George Galloway feels that once a woman decides to have a sex with a men he can have sex with her subsequently, while she sleeps, as the man doesn't need consent for each "insertion"! In his view, this does not constitute rape. WTF! This is his defence of the allegations against Assange.

he sounds like a sic nutter

[SugarBatty]

Did he say it or not? Was it quoting him directly? Who's twitter was it?

[MrsBucketxx]

link?

[stargirl1701]

I followed the link to the New Statesman website. It was being fully reported on their site. I don't know how to paste that link onto here from my phone.

What A Prick

'Respect MP'

He doesn't understand the meaning of the word respect

[stargirl1701]

Did you follow the link Pan?

[LePan]

"I mean not everybody needs to be asked prior to each insertion. " -such an old romantic....

not quite the implication in the OP.

[stargirl1701]

She claims she was asleep. Makes a difference in my book.

[Ambrosius]

Fucking hell. I just don't have the words....

[SugarBatty]

He's my local mp. I predict a riot.

[CogitoErgoSometimes]

Exciting prospect that we could get shot of Galloway and Assange in one fell swoop. Do we think there's enough room on that flight to Ecuador for the both of them?

[stargirl1701]

Love that thought Cognito

[LePan]

oh I quite k=like Gorgeous George. Not your run of the mill MP, or politician.

OTOH I don't think he should be given any degree of power. We'd never get it back off him.

[DuelingFanjo]

The rape apologists are having a great day today aren't they :( ?

[MmeLindor]

Pan
Wtf is that comment about? Do you really think that Stargirl is making this up?

George Galloway is a massive wankery troll.

He should read this guide to legitimate rape so he knows how to recognise rape.

[LePan]

No, not at all Mme. George is being pretty much a wanker here, and trying stupidly to defend a fellow 'ant-state friend. But to be fair it was a fairly tenuous-sounding link - like being told something 12th hand.

[yellowraincoat]

What a fucking prick.

The sad thing is that this man is taken seriously.

[Chubfuddler]

On George galloways reckoning a woman is "in the sex game" every time she gets into the marital bed. I thought he was a total moron but really, he's even stupider than I thought.

[stargirl1701]

Sorry Pan. I'm a bit of a MN newbie. Still trying to figure out links and such like.

[MmeLindor]

Then try asking for a link, just as some other posters did, instead of the snide PA post.

[NarkedRaspberry]

George Galloway has always been a creepy fucker.

[LRDtheFeministDragon]

Oh, that's horrible.

He is a really nasty bully. I met him once. Not fun.

[picnicbasketcase]

He claims that if she agreed once, she has therefore agreed to any subsequent sex. So rape within marriage is impossible then George? Cockwit.
