I’d say there are two objectives: first to make choosing abortion prohibitively expensive and second to breach doctor-patient confidentiality since a record of every abortion will automatically be created for the State on top of the private one the doctor has and it will be attributed to the woman.

now imagine burring all of your tampons and pads.

If no birth or death certificates are required why should this sort of medical waste be treated any differently than an amputated limb or organ?

Done last week. Paying for good journalism now.

When other inmates need to be protected for their own safety, they are thrown in solitary.

Baldwin’s reaction is like that republican lady who got all mad at Ana Navarro for saying pussy on the news when she was quoting Donald Trump - same misdirection, same reduction of the word to the single, most recent instance of it’s use while blatantly ignoring the referenced, and far more significant, use.

Well, there are things the Dems can do to hold up things a bit, but really a lot depends on Republicans right now since they also control Congress. So, yes, Congress could do quite a lot, up to and including impeaching him, but it is unlikely to do so.

Once, when cornered in an argument, my very drunken friend screamed:

I feel you. I’m about one more Nazi salute away from Von Trapping this bitch.

That’s not gaslighting, that’s lying. Gaslighting is a specific tactic of abuse that requires an intimate, personal relationship and enough control to limit exposure to anyone and anything that would contradict the abuse narrative.

We have a psychopath for president-elect who is attempting (as a good psychologist friend of mine put it) to gaslight the whole country.

The most hypocritical of the bunch have no problem shoving their morality down other people’s throats without care as to the actual harm it can cause. (Looking at you, bishops in charge of Catholic hospitals)

Or they could just go full frontal and say, These cakes are in terrible taste, you’re acting like sexist jerks, and while we’re at it, what is this science legislation you’re trying to shove through that looks like something straight out of Nazi Germany?

“I didn’t feel it was offensive,” he explained to The Advocate.

I have never talked about this ordeal outside of my close family/friends. The fallout was almost more than I could stand at the time, but weirdly, I feel like keeping it to myself is actually worse. 4 yrs ago, when I was a very junior officer in the military, my commander would CONSTANTLY harass me and would…

Asking women to stop their misogyny (which is often a tactic to ingratiate themselves to the oppressors) instead of asking men to stop their misogyny gets it backwards. Women wouldn’t need to be misogynistic if men didn’t hate women. I will defend every woman against gendered attacks because it defends us all.

We’re all many things. You will always be able to point at a victim and accuse them of some deficiency because no one is perfect. But that’s how attackers keep getting away with it.

A request to Jezebel writers/reporters: it would be most helpful for you to speak to several attorneys specializing in workplace harassment cases about what kinds of evidence to gather and generally how to proceed, then report back to the Jezebel community. Those involved in such situations already should still…

I totally agree with you, but will repeat what a Jezzie said months ago about Andrea Tantaros. It really pisses me off that these women smirked and questioned other women who came forward regarding sexual assault, sexual harassment or domestic violence. However, thanks to feminists who have worked tirelessly for…
