I cannot take one more day of this fascist government. This Scott Lloyd madness about tracking this kidnapped children's periods is more than I can tolerate.
Please start the investigations Speaker Pelosi.

I have thought from the beginning that these young girls and boys that were taken into custody were being sold/human trafficked. HHS is deliberately not tracking what happens to them but yet Scotty can track their menstrual cycles.
Send the FBI to his house and see what else he is doing.

(32,897 posts)Right to an abortion, after many of them getting raped. Its all so mind boggling. If they have the ability to do this, does anyone still think these rotten fuckers lost track of children they kidnapped from their parents?

(4,221 posts)again when the government documents their personal information.
When I was in jr high and high school the phys ed teacher would have us line up for inspection. She would check our uniforms and sneakers to see if they were clean. Then we would have to tell her if we needed a private shower at the end of class. She would essentially keep track of our periods. I had not thought of that in decades. I wonder when the school district realized this was none of their business.

(33,643 posts)For real, it's 'TMI' for you to find out that I didn't shower after gym classes 35 years ago? Lol ... that's pretty damn sensitive, gotta say.
Honestly, I am probably the least sweaty or smelly person you've ever met. I just ... don't. So I didn't worry about it. I hated the whole idea that I was supposed to shower with a bunch of other people. Which means I COMPLETELY understand why 'private showers' would be appropriate for ... anyone, really.
Just sayin'

(4,546 posts)But I was against participating in team sports because I felt it promoted too much competition instead of cooperation, and I made my opinion known (loudly... it was the 70s). So, they let me do yoga instead (it kept me quiet). I never needed a shower.

badhair77
(4,221 posts)That was totally appropriate and she was doing what she was told to do. My issue is now with the documentation in the gradebook of a record of my period schedule.
I dont think todays HS students shower after phys ed. Some of them dont even have that class anymore. They have contract phys ed in which the parent vows that they engaged in physical activity.

Lazy Daisy
(928 posts)I couldn't help but think "what the hell do women do that instills this level of fear among some men" seriously, why do some men want to crush and destroy women so badly that they would stalk a womans period?
Some of these girls were as young as 12. Why tf would you make a girl that age give birth? Why would you want to put a body that young through a pregnancy? I know through out history women have given birth at that age, but we know better now.

(15,808 posts)Abortion is not a dirty word and Planned Parenthood isnt a McDonalds and the GOP can go F**K itself
Margaret honey, nothing pisses me off more than when a man has an opinion about something he knows nothing about. And one thing for damn sure a man knows nothing about is whats in a womans mind and heart when she is making a decision about whether or not to terminate a pregnancy. Its called an abortion. Its not a dirty word. Its legal. Its a womans right. Its personal. A woman can choose to have one or not. And damn it, there is no such thing as a post-birth abortion unless youre talking about the death penalty (which is a whole nother GOP lie).
The fact that the GOP has a talking point about post-birth abortions tells you all you need to know about how stupid the GOP is and how stupid they think voters are. If you cant make your case with the truth then do you really have a case? There is indeed something called a late-term abortion. Its not pretty. Its not happy. Its usually the last choice, but it is a choice a woman sometimes makes. And if you knew anything about why a woman might have to make that choice, you would be questioning your faith in God before you would be questioning the choice of that woman.
Contrary to what our asshat of a President and his confederacy of dunces think, women dont pull up to a Planned Parenthood and order up an abortion like its a Big Mac. No one at Planned Parenthood takes our request for a pregnancy test and tries to upsize us to an abortion and some fries. Women make this decision with a great deal of thought, prayer and consultation with our loved ones and our doctors.
I am an old woman. I dont like the f-word. I didnt use that word until the orange asshat arrived. But on this topic, you bet your sweet ass Ill use it. FUCK YOU GOP for continuing to politicize this deeply personal decision that should be left between a woman and her doctor. Get your lies out of our government and get your politics out of our vaginas. And while you are at it, why dont you get those children at the border out of those cages. I mean it. Really.
