Feministing Like Totally Psyched That Superstar Athlete Who Likely Has Sex With Dozens of Women a Year Somehow Has Wound Up on the Pro-Choice Side of the Issue

Gee, I wonder if he's pro-blowjob, too.

Meet my new boyfriend, Scott Fujita. This week, the New Orleans Saints linebacker was featured in the New York Times talking about why he's pro-choice and pro-LGBT rights. This is not only regarding the anti-choice ad that's scheduled to air during the Superbowl on Sunday, but also the gay dating site ad that was submitted to CBS - and rejected.

As covered by Jos yesterday, Sean James and Al Joyner were featured in a new Planned Parenthood ad talking about the decisions they want the women in their lives to have.

No shit really? Guys who've seen more sex than Boy George's Dungeon Wall are in favor of women having easy access to abortions?

Ah, well, that's not quite fair with regard to these two; Planned Parenthood wisely solicited older guys for the ad, and at least one of them has a daughter, and he frames it as being a choice he'd like his daughter to have.

Which takes them a bit out of the Well-Of-Course-You'd-Say-That-Ladykiller category.

On the other hand, there's super-stupd Fujita. Guy's so good-looking even I might let him buy me a drink and a diaphragm.

...

"It's just me standing up for equal rights. It's not that courageous to have an opinion if you think it's the right thing and you believe it wholeheartedly."

Oh, I know you believe it wholeheartedly, Vaiszh Hunter. Anyone with a dick like the booster stage of a Saturn V rocket, a million dollars in the bank, and an NFL-issued gen-u-ine Panty Inspector #69 laminate would believe that wholeheartedly.

Fujita "respects" Tim Tebow for voicing his opinion, incidentally. So did the other two guys; that seems to be message here.

To be honest, I am Fujita's side here (as most of you know), and I can't really kick up too much of a fuss about this, really. Mercenary, tangible self-interest decides most questions for most people, doesn't it? There is little question that there is a substantial split on this issue between the younger, unattached, and less sexually monogamous and the older, married, and monogamously stable.

Still, I do find it a little goofy that Feminsting is so surprised to find pro-choice sentiments in a guy who likely scatters more DNA around than OJ Simpson caught in a bad case of full moon fever.

Next scoop from Feministing: Eighth grade boys believe that age restrictions on alcohol, cigarette, and fireworks purchases are unfair and anti-freedom.

(I told you was desperate, didn't I?)
