The Sexual Politics of Virginia License Plates

Waldo JaquithWaldo Jaquith, a Virginia Tech student and president of the Virginia Family Values Political Action Committee (they support sexual privacy and contraception) was sick of his legislators passing Puritanical laws restricting and regulating sexual behavior and lobbying for things like "Traditional Marriage" license plates which, he reasoned, was basically a not-so-subtle dig against gays: "Every time they get married, they use up a little bit of our collective ability to get married. When they go having that gay sex, they’re using up sex, too! Somebody stop them!"

So he decided to strike back. With photoshop. His "NOBUTT" license plate has been getting some attention.
