A group of Catholic nuns in Ohio has just released a video informing the public of the truth about contraception – it makes women undesirable, turns men gay, turns womens into murderers, and makes men have sex with dogs. (Or something). You can read more from the Hufpo here.

I especially enjoyed the science of pheromones part–in that, when men can’t smell them, they get confused.
(I’m pretty sure TWIB talked about this, too, but I can’t find the exact link: http://thisweekinblackness.com/ They must have, since I recognized this story. Mysteries.)
Sounds like the nuns who taught me.
You might check the verb in your first sentence.
Ah yes, Anne – thanks!
Oh gosh – sounds like you had some fun.
Yes, especially when one added in the ‘dirty priests’.
There are so many things I love about this video it’s hard to pick out just one, but I think it’s especially funny how all the menz are confused because on account of contraceptive use we’re not emitting the pheromones that make us desirable, while simultaneously contraceptives are responsible for a rise in promiscuity. If women are less desirable, how do they keep finding sexual partners? Curious viewers want to know.
I’ve met these women before. They aren’t bona fide nuns, per se. Their order is in the process of become a canonically recognized religious order. I hate that they are being called nuns by the media, it’s driving me insane. As ultra-conservative as they like to project themselves to be, their leader has quite an interesting background that is in complete contradiction to everything she teaches. I hope this cult of personality fizzles out sooner rather than later. This really doesn’t represent mainstream Catholic thought at all.
It’s a superb site and very intriguing and entertaining to read. I am a major of the matters discussed. Also I get pleasure from checking the responses, but realize a number of people should really stay on the theme to try and increase the value of the original blog post. I would also really encourage everyone to save this site in your favourite service to help spread your message.
