6. Ugh. It's awful when people with agendas try to hijack things.

I swear, there is this creeping "stealth" religious right influence, even in some circles masquerading as advocacy for women. We should call these people on what they're doing, and pull the masks off. It's the religious right, pure and simple. It's what's driving this guilt-promotion, slut shaming, anti-sex, anti-sexual freedom and anti-contraception agenda.

Clearly.
