The Year of Hating Women

So far, there have been 916 bills introduced that aim in some way or another to make life more difficult for women. And 120 of those bills have been approved by at least one chamber (whether the Senate, Assembly, House of Delegates, or whatever).

................

As a whole, the proposals introduced this year are more hostile to abortion rights than in the past: 56% of the bills introduced so far this year seek to restrict abortion access, compared with 38% last year. Three topics—insurance coverage of abortion, restriction of abortion after a specific point in gestation and ultrasound requirements—are topping the agenda in several states. At the same time, legislators are proposing little in the way of proactive initiatives aimed at expanding access to reproductive health –related services; this stands in sharp contrast to recent years when a range of initiatives to promote comprehensive sex education, permit expedited STI treatment for patients’ partners and ensure insurance coverage of contraception were adopted. For the moment, at least, supporters of reproductive health and rights are almost uniformly playing defense at the state level.

The obvious solution: no more abortions!

9. you see, it's becouse the female is evil, and can only be sanctified through childbirth

The problems of the world are because the stain of unrepentant femininity is making gawd angry; so if the godly reich wing forces us into our gawd-ordained role, then

(and it has nothing to do with clever and powerful men who understand how to stir up the torches and pitchforks crowd, so they can go about their bizness. Their big, BIG BIZNESS)

11. They're not going to be happy until they outlaw all birth control. Hell, all non-procreative fucking

It's the same sexually repressed, anti-sex authoritarian control freak mentality that causes so many problems worldwide.
