No Choice for women? No Sex for Republicans.

[Gelliebeans]

If they want to take away a woman's choice, I think republicans should not be allowed to partake in sex with pro-choice women or men for that matter.

Think of it like the soup nazi from Seinfeld, "NO SeX for u!"

Seriously friends, after writing faxing and calling Senators from about 23 states, I'm frustrated.

My mother btw has cut off my idiot repuke stepfather. We shall see in a couple of weeks whether this mouth breathing idiot still views women's choice as a non-issue. Go MOM!

I buy blue and support only organizations that are not hostile to progressive issues this great American cut off would just be an extension of way progressives do business.

Oh and those Dem senators that are willing to sell me and my choices up the river can look forward their early retirement because I will not support them. Some might see this as a non-issue but that is because it isn't their rights that are up for debate. (nuff said)

We are in this together.

1. A lot of left wing and moderate men are antichoice at heart

and would be perfectly happy to see abortion declared illegal, since they aren't going to have to assume any risk from it.

Get a vibrator and cut 'em all off.

[Gelliebeans]

4. I can't believe in 2006

Women can be CEO's, Astronauts and Brain Surgeons but they aren't allowed to make decisions about their own reproductive choice. :wtf:

[YOY]

28. Yes thank you for insulting all the men here

Great way to make more folks see things from your point of view.

:eyes:

btw. Male and Pro-choice.

[Gelliebeans]

30. I don't feel that way

I know your post wasn't directed at me but I wanted to let you know that I appreciate the progressive men that have stood with us on this continuing battle. :)

[Triana]

32. SAME HERE!

:hug: to 'em all.

[Gelliebeans]

33. I agree absolutely!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Triana]

31. Thanks YOY and my apologies to...

...all the TRUELY pro-choice men everywhere. I believe most who claim they are pro-choice actually are. But there are always a few whose attitudes towards choice for women is at best, disingenuous, pretentious and about a deep as water in a thimble. Like bu$h calls himself a Christian, they call themselves 'pro-choice' - when it's politically expedient for them to do so.

Tsk.

THANKS for being male AND Pro-choice.

[YOY]

39. No problem at all! My pleasure.

When confronted with the religious male anti-choice rhetoric I have found a good defense to be (and I suppose it would for for anti-choice females as well) this:

"If you are so anti-abortion, then why don't you work towards a world where any woman would be thrilled to bring a new life into it (but still had the right to not do so if she so chooses)."

Works like a charm...if they call you an idealist then call them one right back at them for thinking a world that makes abortion illegal would be a better place.

[Triana]

43. Good comeback!

Thanks!

:hug:

[EvolveOrConvolve]

37. Well said, YOY

Another pro-choice male here who's weary of this sort of shit.

2. The Lissistrata civil resistance action.

From the play with the same name - women stommed a was once in Ancient Greece. And they used since. Unfortunately, in redneck-land, the women are unaware of their worth as people.

[Gelliebeans]

5. I think education is at

the center of this. Women are still taught in some areas that they are not being a "good girl" if they aren't being a submissive wife. It still amazes me that women will vote exactly as their husbands because "he knows best." :crazy:

[Gelliebeans]

3. I'm lucky enough to be married to a

progressive but believe it or not, I actually asked him 15 years ago while we were on our first date whether he was pro-choice. (obviously he answered correctly) and his actions over the years have proved that.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

6. If Someone Is That Against What Their Mate Stands For, Just Divorce Them.

Holding back sex is grounds for divorce and looked upon as cruel in many states. This action if taken too far for too long would undoubtedly tear the family relation apart anyway, so why not just go straight to divorce if they are that bitterly against their mates beliefs? If they are that incompatible, heck with games and drawn out abuse, just get the divorce and be done with it.

[Gelliebeans]

8. I agree

but did you believe we would be having a discussion on whether Roe v Wade being overturned. Did we think that in 5 years that criminal in the WH would of rolled back civil rights and privacy like he has done. In desparate times sometimes desparate measures are needed.

[cynatnite]

7. If men could get pregnant...

Abortion clinics would be as popular as bars and they'd probably have a drive thru.

[Gelliebeans]

9. I have said something

similar to what you wrote on many occasions but it is soooo true.

[Triana]

14. And the cost would be 100% covered by the government (n/t)

[Gelliebeans]

34. Why is that?

When insurance will cover Viagra but not birth control until we passed laws in some states requiring it. For the life of me, I can't understand why reproductive choice always takes a back seat? On the face of it I could go off half cocked and make a disparaging remark but I don't see that gaining me any further understanding of my opposition. We have had 30 some odd years for everyone to get used to the idea of equality but yet some things like abortion and contraception still to this day remain just out of reach. Sorry for run on but I am thinking out loud.

[Triana]

35. Not enough women in gov't....

...methinks. But I guess if the gov't was full of Repube women, it'd be the same - if not worse!

We need more progressives - male and female - in gov't. But, with the current cabal in power, we're a loooong way from that.

*sigh*

We're going back to the 1950s - and in some ways, the freakin stone age.

10. Your mom ROCKS!!!!

:D :kick:

[Gelliebeans]

11. She is a pretty kewl old bird

and I love her to death.

[YOY]

12. What are right minded women doing having sex with Republicans in the

first place???

[Gelliebeans]

18. Good question.

I think that the repubs of yesteryear were not these people that call themselves republican now.

[YOY]

27. Neocon versus Conservative

I find the key differentiator between the two to be the fact that one can debate a conservative and a neocon simply insults you, does not discuss the topic at hand, and waves the flag without merit (and afterward wonder why you despise them so...you obviously must be the hateful one!)

[Triana]

13. I had a male (supposedly progressive/liberal) friend say...

"well you may not like Alito's ideologies but he is qualified for the position."

AMAAAAAZING how UNaffected and smug males - even progressive ones - are about Alito. It's not THEIR problem. THEY can't get pregnant and so they don't give a rat's ass whether a woman has a right to choose or not. "Oh well. He's qualified" is the sentiment?

OH - SO THE MAN IS QUALIFIED TO MAKE DECISIONS FOR ME AS TO WHAT I MAY OR MAY NOT DO WITH *MY* BODY AND MY LIFE?

I DON'T THINK SO!

I wonder if my male friend would be so smug and consider Alito "qualified" if Alito would have the SAME amount of power over HIS body and HIS life if confirmed?

I

DOUBT

IT...

[MichiganVote]

15. Between Scalia and Thomas, Alito will BE in the missionary position

most of the time. Qualified and stupid often go hand and hand.

[Gelliebeans]

21. here lies the problem

today it is "her" body but tomorrow it is the privacy of "his" bank account. Somewhere along the line we will ALL rule the day this man was nominated.

[bettyellen]

24. there's a few of them here. someone actually said that overturning Roe

wouldn't be as bad as raising the kid in the society we are turning into. speak for yourself, buddy, but not for women.
excuse me, but if i am forced to breed, i'm going to be so depressed and exhausted i won't even notice what's going on in this nation, let alone have time to worry how HE is faring in this brave new world.

[smirkymonkey]

25. Oh yeah? Once they regularly start using DNA tests to determine

paternity - and start making the "fathers" of these unwanted fetuses pay up for raising the child, they'll change their toon pretty fast.

[Gelliebeans]

29. you hit a point

I think that is the whole reason for stocking judicial appointments in their favor starting at the local levels and reaching all the way to SCOTUS.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

16. "No sex for you!"

[Gelliebeans]

17. Thanks for posting this!

:thumbsup:

[debbierlus]

19. Sex with a Republican??????? EWWWWWWWWWWWWWw

Yuck.

I need to take a shower just thinking about it.

And, always remember---

LIBERAL MEN MAKE THE BEST LOVERS

[Gelliebeans]

22. sorry to gross you out

;)

[Swamp Rat]

20. HA! Great idea.

:D

If I were a woman married to a idiot repuke, I'd clean out all the savings, run up the credit cards at Mardi Gras and split.... HAHA! Just kidding. :D

[Gelliebeans]

23. you are hilarious

off topic* haven't run across you lately in the threads but I hope you are doing ok? :hug:

[Swamp Rat]

26. Way'at Gelliebeans!

:hi: :hug:

Just trying to survive at this point. At least I have electricity, but no hot water, gas, car, power that goes on and off daily, etc, ad infinitum.

Happy to be alive. :)

Here's my latest pic:

[KingFlorez]

36. Republicans do that?

I thought Falwell, Robertson and Dobson declared sex immoral?

[Rocknrule]

38. Yea, I thought they reproduced like amoebas

[Gelliebeans]

40. Unless you are making babies

to join their armies against the "liberals" then it's ok :eyes:

[BlueJazz]

41. I'm so Pro-Choice, I even have my birthday on January 22

[Cleita]

42. The Lysistrata solution?

It didn't work very well the first time. However, it was about the men going to war all the time.

[raysr]

44. They don't care,

they're busy fucking each other already!

[alarimer]

45. My thoughts exactly

I already refuse to date Republicans.

[helderheid]

46. LOVE IT!
