I’ve been using “Pro-Forced Birth”. Better to highlight the aggressiveness of their goals. Nobody reacts positively to the term “Forced”. Play the game the way the GOP does.

Exactly. And I think he knows that, which actually makes it even worse that he won’t go with me. I honestly don’t know what his aversion is, but if it’s some stupid macho thing about not wanting to be a dude at a “women’s” event then he and I will have to have some serious talks.

Guys, I am really bothered by my husband today. I’m going to my local women’s march and I asked him if he wanted to go. His reason for saying no is that he wants to go to the car dealership to look at a vehicle, and when I pressed him on it he said very mockingly “Do you need a man to speak out for your rights, or can…

99% agree. Sadly, in politics, they always have the pre-loaded excuse that it was the other guy’s mistake and that THEIR personal mistakes on the issue stem from trying to fix the other guy’s screw ups. Not saying it’s right or accurate just that they already have a failure excuse in place.

I just wanted to share this pin I designed for the Women’s March. I’ll be there representing Georgia, obvs. I made like 500 of them since I figured they’ll stay fresh for the next four years.

That is literally my dream march. I guess I’ll have to settle for this diverse march of people of all genders and sexualities instead.

Nah. The Left demands better than navel-gazing privileged white dudes being the de facto voice of the Left.

I’m still waiting for the organizers to unveil their policy for squirrels. I’m currently nursing a smallish baby squirrel and would like to take him along because let’s face it, squirrel-sitters are EXPENSIVE and this will be a three or four day trip. While women are explicitly invited and most men are welcome by…

RE-ENACTMENT:

And Chait wants to make sure that no other man has to suffer as you’ve suffered. A true pioneer.

I’ve said this elsewhere, but he is also mischaracterizing the focus of the march. The organizers have been very clear: this is not a march against Trump, it’s a march for women’s rights.

You want to know the best thing about concern trolls? They can never have enough criticism of the oppressed. Had this rally been named “The Rally Against Trump” or some such shit, you better believe Chait would have been complaining about the name being too “partisan.”

Chait is the first writer I ever disliked. 18yr old me thought he had shit takes, and 24yr old me thinks he’s garbage. 

My wife and I are going, but at one point I did indeed become unsure if men were invited, based on the name, so I ... and hang with me here, because this is key ... I went and checked their website to be sure. It took almost fifteen seconds, but somehow I got through it.

I’m going to reply to every Donald trump tweet with this gif till he blocks me.

From the Wash Post:

It’s interesting that men are fond of telling women all we have to do to succeed in the workplace/be treated equally is force ourselves into stuff without caring whether we’re wanted not. Just ask for the money you’re sure they won’t give you! What’s the big deal? Just MAKE them take you to the meeting/outing they…

If Jonathan Chait wanted an anti-Trump march with another name, he should have started one on his own. If he’s going to let other people do all the work, he can shut up about the name.

Me to JC:

Chait probably thinks he will loose his man card, by going to a Women’s March.
