Yeah, the tweeter is the idiot. Nobody cares if astronauts touch naughty bits, but a pregnancy would be pretty bad.

What’s dumb about not wanting someone to accidentally make a baby in space which is probably the most unsafe place I can imagine to have an unexpected baby?
Wording it as though it's not sex if no penises are involved. Nobody thinks it's a good idea for someone to get pregnant in space unexpectedly on a long-term mission, but the wording is... fairly clueless even though it's working within a character constraint. Like they couldn't have just said it's to prevent pregnancy?

Eeeeh, the idea of wanting to be 100% on a long-term mission because there's no good way to deal with the million to one shot isn't stupid. Doesn't mean the potential problem is at all likely.

It’s a 3 year old headline and it feels like we’ve all grown up a lot in that period of time, so I’m sure if it was written today it would be a lot less clumsy in what it’s trying to convey.

It’s an incredibly flimsy target to try and dunk on.

They’re not 100% effective and that’s cool when you’re here on Earth with access to a million and one other options but not so great when you’re flying through space.

The outrage over WAP takes on a new light when you consider Nikki Minaj has been doing filthier lyrics longer, and pretty recently, Arianna Grande had a song about getting hosed so hard that you walk weird, featuring lyrics like "wrist icicle, ride dick bicycle" during the Nikki cameo.

This should be really familiar to GenX when everyone would lash onto a song as satanic, like "aww do those words scare you old timer"

the worst moral outrage values horror 2020 could bring is a world in which ladies are allowed to sing about the hot juice drippin down their crack without having to use specific euphemisms that can also be applied to freshly cooked foods (cherry pies, roasts, baked buns etc) for plausible deniability.

Now historians can make money writing about this along with other "oh my delicate ears, the royal bard just said dick instead of cock so they couldn't possibly have been singing about roosters this time, guards arrest that man" moments

so only people who've had their gonads removed should be allowed to be astronauts? An intriguing idea. I'm sure animes have been made about the subject, someone should watch them and report back in on it.

People paying American dollars to let other people know they didn't agree with someone's position on something is the lifeblood of these forums.
To mars and back you could just go with IUDs and vasectomies, anything outside of the solar system you'd just be sending zygotes anyway.

All that most maddens and torments; all that stirs up the lees of things; all truth with malice in it; all that cracks the sinews and cakes the brain; all the subtle demonisms of life and thought; all evil were visibly personified, and made practically assailable in Fry.

Obviously there is the advantage that they won’t have a dynastic challenge to the anointed Emperor of NASA, but there’s still usurpers like Colonel “Buzz” Eleutherius. Can Congress guarantee that raids for astronauts will take place only in the Caucasus and not in the Ακρωτήριο Κανάβεραλ theme where an astronaut might have a power base? The last thing we need is a rival NASA on the moon.

Back in undergrad I took a US Foreign policy class. One if the groups have their entire presentation on God as the most important non-state actor. It was a trip. I was the smug atheist who during the Q&A period asked if this meant heaven should be invaded a coalition of the willing and God tried for crimes against humanity. And no, the class did not stand up and clap.
