    Do you know that misogyny comes in many flavors? Rape, is not lust, it is about power and control; the two women who had affairs with Trump are not prostitutes, nor were the other women who accused trump and weinstein, they were victims. Sexual harassment too has many layers (no pun intended), from off color jokes to inappropriate touching to the glass ceiling, and to shaming women who seek a legal abortion. Yes, misogynists are not only men, many women dislike, despise, or are strongly prejudiced against women. (as I guy I dated a number of women and noticed that those women who had no girl friends were not out going, and those with a number of girl friends were friendly with everyone).

    99.7% imagined, and .3% Islam.
    it's partially about must because it's a sexual crime. If it was just about power than it probably wouldn't be sexual.

    affairs don't matter Bill Clinton set that standard. I'm not sure about the other women who accused Trump of anyting. there was one lady that got a lot of notoriety but she was batshit nuts.
    I don't understand why women are so fragile, and why feminism promotes this damsel trope.

    The glass ceiling may have been real back in the 70s but it doesn't exist anymore. What we have now is a glass coffin.

    I don't care if people shame women for having an abortion. It just doesn't matter in the least to me.
    This Is The Life you've been telling yourselves since the 60s. People aren't pro-life because they're prejudiced against women are pro-life because they value human life.

    When you see it's prejudice against women you're just demonizing people you disagree with because you can't argue against their position.

    For the record I ran my agencies Domestic Violence Unit and learned a great deal about women, violence and abusers.

    I think the pro-abortion side just did, she not only killed her baby but she lied about an epiphany about it for monetary gain and is now back in the warm embracing arms of the pro-abortion side.

    She sure wanted one didn't she but fortunately she did not kill the baby and I hope that person, that human life was a long and productive one. I wonder what that person, her child would say to her if they ever met.

    Maybe they'd say "Thanks for fighting the fight so that government doesn't dictate who can or cannot have babies."

    Or, if you had had your way I wouldn't be alive today and then you pretended to have a change of heart about it in order to profit off it, you are nothing to me and a despicable person. I wouldn't blame her would you.

    Abortion is the law of the land now and a necessary evil.
    I don’t see the point in spending any resources on this issue.
    Just like liberals tend to blow out of proportion issues on racism, conservatives show a similar phenomenon with abortion.

    Law of the land? Golly, "conservatives" claiming "God" is on their side continue to try to deny women access to abortion services on a daily basis.

    But you equate protesting over the murder of Black people whose only crime is being Black with denying women control over their own bodies?

    Moral equivocation.

    Seems you don't, can't or don't want to get it.

    The "Moral Majority," "Religious Right," whatever mantle of superiority they want to wrap themselves in was not corrupted by Donald Trump. They were corrupt decades before Trump showed up.

    This talk about condemning Trump's values but supporting him because he supports their agenda is a stinking pile of horse crap.

    Trump's values are their values.
    Trump's values are your values.
    And those values are corrupt to their core.

    So you couldn't actually respond to what I said and when on some specious tangential rant about Trump.......................gotcha :thumbsup:

    Try again

    Or her fortunately alive daughter might say "if you had had your way I wouldn't be alive today but because of what you did millions of babies have been killed and then you pretended to have a change of heart about it in order to profit off it, you are nothing to me and a despicable person." I wouldn't blame her would you.

    This thread is about the "honor" of the religious right.
    The response just forces you to return to the topic.

    You don't know what anyone would say. To claim you do is just your ego overcoming your brain.

    But, we do know what the religious right has said.
    We do know how they've denigrated the rest of us as unpure
    This just goes to show that they and their supporters are little more than con men
    Scamming the true believers out of their hard earned money
    That's why the religious right is so comfortable with Trump
    Shared values

    And I didn't claim I know what her daughter said did I so argue I did. I WONDERED what she would say and you WONDERED back. I think my WONDER would be closer to reality than yours.
    Do you REALLY think she would pat her mother on the back and say "hey mom I'm you didn't win your court case before I was born so you could have killed me"?

    It's nothing without McCovery and the deceit in which she engaged. There are no claims anyone paid her to LIE about her proclaimed anti-abortion position, she just saw a chance to take advantage of them and pocket some money. You certainly are lauding her are you?

    And good grief want to look at the how Christians and others of religious faith have been attack and bad things said about them as you just did? There's good and bad on both side but personally the side the supports killing unborn babies starts way ahead on that. Where's the "honor" in that?

    dude. Your relationship with reality is passing at best.

    SHE said she lied.
    SHE said they paid her to lie.
    A representative of the Religious Right admitted to having paid her for her services.

    That's reality. the absolute reality that the religious moral center of the Trump movement has no morality and hasn't had morality for 30 years.

    Q. So What?

    A. I interviewed hundreds of victims, abusers and witnesses. That's so what. I also wrote two DOJ VAWA (Violence Against Women Act) grants, and co-authorized several more grants by the Federal and State Departments of Jusitce. I know what I post; I don't post anything unless I'm sure of what I write; unlike some who echo radio and TV talking heads as if they have real life experiences.

    Forcing millions of women to carry unwanted babies to term is pretty anti woman.

    Hmmmm...
    I coined a phrase on another message board, the Idiot-Gram; a phrase of short sentence which lacks substance, thought or is thought provoking. You hit the trifecta with Le-dee-da.

    Its 2020 hunny we can be whatever we want. My gender has nothing to do about your statement. It's the same as saying forcing men to pay child support for their children is anti man.

    So you can't know if something is anti woman unless you are a woman? What if I identified as a woman?
