Same here. Nothing made me understand how important a woman’s right to choose is until I had a baby myself.
When he’s taking a break from denying women a right to choose, he’s busy denying urban (read: black!) communities food stamp benefits!
This is what makes Kasich a lot more dangerous. Cruz and Trump wear their bullshit on their sleeve, but Kasich has managed to capture the narrative that he is somehow “reasonable” and “moderate.” He is the opposite.
That’s adorable.
The best treatment for menstrual cramps is pot. Someone had to say it.
Invest in a grater and buy a block and grate it yourself, tastier and less woody.
We can agree on this point.
You’re right. It would be $1.39 a week.
Prior to using the word UTERUS (again NOT a slur!) he made multiple comments about how every social justice movement in the history of this country was told to “be patient” and “wait.” If the “vote for Hillary because she’s female just like you!” line isn’t what the Clinton campaign is saying, if they are explicitly…
Of course, there are no men who can know what it’s like to be in that position. However, Sanders is openly advocating for 12 weeks paid parental leave through a 2.2% income tax across the board. Clinton has yet to release any concrete plans or policies to the effect of providing new parents with paid leave.
That’s Clinton’s stance, “I’m a woman, therefore, I’m a feminist, therefore you women should vote for me.” Sadly Steinem, and not-so-surprisingly Albright have hopped on that narrative. Mike’s statement was a call to evaluate the efficacy of claiming one is a social ally who is telling you to “be patient” resting on…
No, it doesn’t, and furthermore, context is extremely important.
No, he said that being a woman does not automatically make you the best candidate, or a candidate who fights for social justice. If your interpretation is that, because he said the word “uterus” he meant that Hillary was reduced to a female sex organ, is on you. He did not repeat the word “uterus” repeatedly, he said…
I calls it like I sees it.
All I’m saying is that it’s probably better that we don’t all just lose our shit over the word “uterus.” Last I checked, it is not a slur, and I don’t think that Mike, or Elliott (the woman he was quoting) meant it as such.
Exactly this.
It is fucking pizza and it is fucking delicious.
I believe another Clinton’s genitals were a hot topic of conversation some 20 years ago.
Given the entire context of the quote, no, I don’t. I have heard a lot of “older feminists” talking about how young women “don’t understand the fight” as a means to promote Clinton, and to me, I think Killer Mike’s point stands. Telling us “incremental change” and “pragmatism” is a load of crap. A century after…
