Iraq and American Masculinity

Posted by Ampersand | August 23rd, 2005

Just came across this passage on another blog and it cracked me up.

A ragtag bunch of ignorant losers who want to have sex with 72 virgins against a military increasingly de-balled by an effete media and seemingly intimidated president. No contest.

For some folks (not exclusively men - this blogger is a woman, I think), invading Iraq really is all about masculinity.

    Whatever you do, don’t go over to that site and leave a critical comment. She just…can’t…handle it, man. It’s like, libelous and stuff.

    Every morning on my run I pass a truck with the bumper sticker:
    Who do you really think is gonna get the virgins? The terrorists? Or the U.S. Marines?
    Urgh.
