Does voting give you pleasure? Is it an orgasmic experience? Well some Spaniards think so! Yet some women think this commercial urging people to vote is going a bit too far. Tell us what you think. You've got to "hand it" to the Spanish Socialists, they've done wonders to liberalize Spain, which is probably the most liberal country now in Europe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mc9eHI3ieQk&feature=player_embedded"]YouTube - Socialist Catalonian Party Vote - Woman Has Orgasm (OFFICIAL VIDEO) Source: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/11/19/spanish-orgasm-election-c_1_n_786262.html
I'm thinking if it was a guy who had the orgasm in the commercial there'd be much more controversy...
I like voting but it's not orgasmic. I feel it's my duty and gives me the right to bitch, . . . until the next election.
lol, here in belgium we HAVE to go voting or we get a big fine of a few hundred euro..i never go voting..lucky i have well-earning parents...i would go voting maybe if i wasn't forced to tho.
I wish I lived somewhere where I could vote for a socialist party. Do such places have to be former strong holds for anarchist revolutions?
I have always supported voting. Forcing people to vote is a bad idea, because you're forcing them to decide. And if the parties are not who they want, who are we to decide IF they should vote or not?
How about they tempt us by offering us an orgasm if we vote? Now THAT would get near 100% participation!
Damn Skip..you tricked me into voting for hating voting... ....likey i would vote if i lived in Spain
Is our system really a democracy if most people are too tired or busy to vote? It often seems futile to even bother or you are given no real choices or politicians you like; the 'douche' or the 'shit sandwich'... "I'll just stay home, thanks". I think most of the people who actually bother to go out and vote are fanaticals or out of touch seniors... false democracy.
62% went out and voted in 2008, so in fact most people did vote. Though numbers are much lower for off presidential years.
Voting (in the U.S.) makes me feel dirty... in a most disturbingly bad way. It's become so bogus and is all too often a choice of the lesser evils. Many of us simply vote against a candidate or entire party. Can this be effective democracy and how much longer will it last? However, if this commercial were really depicting the reaction people get from voting, I'd be volunteering at all the elections! Clever socialists...
I hear you only get Orgasms from voting for socialists. Vote for conservatives/fascists and all you get is butt fucked...
