Steve Waters, advisor to GOP congressional candidate Dave Brat, unleashed a couple of hateful rants against LGBT people. On Wednesday, blogger Benjamin Tribbett made Waters’ disgusting remarks regarding gay men, diapers, and self-soiling very, very public — something that did not please the advisor.
“I will say this, if homosexuality is so normal, how come the diseases, illnesses and cancers connected with it are so abnormal?” Waters wrote in one post. “Even the CDC recognizes this.”
A second post made by the high-profile advisor was even worse than the first. “Is it normal for adult males to have to wear diapers because their rectal muscles have been abused so badly they can no longer control or tighten them to avoid pooping their pants,” he wrote.
After the second post of Waters’ comments, he showed up to defend his disgusting remarks.
“I’ve got history, natural law and biology on my side on this one. What do you guys have, emotion. You should know emotion doesn’t work well in public policy. But I’ll concede one accusation, I’m not normal-my wife would agree with on some days, lol!” he said.
He asserted that he doesn’t “have a problem with homosexuals,” but instead takes issues with “them wanting to pervert marriage and tell pastors what they can preach. The good thing is y’all have over stepped on this one with the bi-sexual/transgender side. The American people aren’t ready for that, nor kissing cousins wanting to marry.”
Of course, Waters does not realize that the ‘perversion’ of ‘kissing cousins’ marrying is more common than he thinks. Cousin marriage is legal in more than 25 states, and was legal long before the “threat” of gay marriage was even an issue.
Waters decried the “logic” of a “man putting part of his anatomy where “poop”comes out of.”
Waters linked to a “Christian” web site in an effort to justify his views. His source claims homosexuality is “brimming with disease,” but does not say a word about anal leakage and destroyed rectal muscles. Eventually, he linked a hate piece by the Family Research Institute, but that only references the sexual practice of “fisting,” which they ignorantly assume is common — but it is a great way to spend a Tuesday night.
Tearing or ripping of the anal wall is especially likely during “fisting,” where the hand and possibly arm is inserted into the rectum. It is also common when “toys” are employed (homosexual lingo for objects which are inserted into the rectum — bottles, carrots, even gerbils16). The risk of contamination and/or having to wear a colostomy bag from such “sport” is very real. Fisting was apparently so rare in Kinsey’s time that he didn’t think to ask about it. By 1977, a third of gays admitted to doing it.17 The rectum was not designed to accommodate the fist, and those who do so can find themselves consigned to ‘leakage’ for life. Anal cancer is 24 times18 and hepatitis C 10 times19 more prevalent in gays.
FECAL SEX About 80% of gays (see Table) admit to licking and/or inserting their tongues into the anus of partners and thus ingesting medically significant amounts of feces. Those who eat or wallow in it are probably at even greater risk. In the diary study,5 70% of the gays had engaged in this activity–half regularly over 6 months. Result? –the “annual incidence of hepatitis A in…homosexual men was 22 percent, whereas no heterosexual men acquired hepatitis A.” In 1992,26 it was noted that the proportion of London gays engaging in oral/anal sex had not declined since 1984.
Waters finally gave up after a failed attempt at posting evidence of his claims. His last link was about anal cancer, but there was still no mention of diapers.
“Anything I say is going to be regarded as ‘hate’ by you guys so I won’t even try. I’ll say this, you guys use the hate word so often it loses its effectiveness. Like I said, you want to get screwed up the rear as a man, that’s your business, but don’t try and force society to have to accept it. There’s no precedent for your claim,” he said. “Natural law buddies, have a good one. I’m so glad we had this opportunity to discuss this. If you are on this thread and happen to be a lesbian or gay guy, I wish you well and please take care of yourself and don’t dismiss this stuff without consulting your physician. This is pretty serious stuff. I love you all! Goodnight and God Bless!”
Instead of slinking off into the shadows, he stuck around to argue a bit more. He simply ceased his attempts to use anything resembling facts.
