Said married woman better have a healthy pregnancy, and one where the fetus will live. If she’s gonna’ die that’s her fault for having dirty sex, and the fetus is more important than her anyway. At least until it is a baby then it better pull itself up by its bootstraps. Oh, and if the fetus can’t survive birth maybe we better start thinking about punishment for the woman; she probably did it on purpose.
I’ve long said that, if men could get pregnant, abortions would be easier to get than herpes at Mardi Gras.
You have a silver tongue Superdude.
It sounds like a cocktail. After Sex on the Beach, go have herpes at Mardi Gras.
If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament.

Combo freakout and hypocrisy double treat:
“… perhaps Rapinoe’s greatest feat will be what she accomplished off the field. She has advocated for LGBTQ+ rights, equal pay for equal work, holding police responsible for brutality, and reproductive rights — making the conservative right really, really angry in the process. She bothers them so much that even Donald Trump has taken shots at her. Rapinoe’s very existence reduces them to wailing, shrieking banshees. Because nothing is more important to the religious right than making sure women, even the gay ones, stay in their boxes. That’s what the reproductive rights “debate” is about, that’s what the equal pay “debate” is about, that is what the childcare “debate” is about.”
If men could get pregnant, abortions would be available at barber shops and shoeshine stands.
If men could get pregnant (and women didn’t), women would run the world, and oppress men. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
Wouldn’t “women” be “men” in that case, and vice versa?
Now you get it!
Republican Sen. Mullin challenges Teamsters president to fight during hearing
GOP lawmaker who voted to oust McCarthy claims former speaker elbowed him, sparking altercation
res ipsa loquitur
Yeah, all of the differences between men and women, inherent and constructed, biological and sociological, all ultimately derive from the fact that one set of humans get pregnant, and the other doesn’t. A lot of those differences are no longer relevant, but they still trace back to pregnancy in their origins.
I want televised GOP cage matches.
That was so strange that Senator Mullin took the Teamster President O’Brien. It’s a good thing Sanders reminded Mullin of their need for composure as senators.
Print link to McCarthy story…
https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/14/politics/burchett-mccarthy-elbowing-fight/index.html
So, when this story came on the news we had some questions about the body mechanics involved in accidentally elbowing someone in the kidneys ……or, for that matter, purposefully elbowing someone in the kidneys. Can you even do that from a standing position? Was Burchett on a ladder? Was Kevin on his knees?
ISTM that the knee would be the logical choice when going for someone’s kidneys. What’s next, will Burchett accidentally chin butt McCarthy in the groin?
i had the same difficultly coming up with an accidental elbow shot. i’ve seen it in ice hockey. how on earth do you do that in a hallway?
my only conclusion was that it wasn’t an elbow, but a punch? that would be easier and something one could do in a hallway.
while discussing this in the office, we did wonder why it wasn’t a shoulder bump, that would be more plausible. turns out mccarthy already used that move a few times. perhap he felt he needed to mix it up?
A knee for a kidney shot? Are you a Muy Thai master or something?
“I caught McCarthy staring at my kidney area. Next thing I knew I woke up in a bathtub full of ice…”
What was written on the mirror? “I’ll return it in two weeks”?
I think we’re dealing with the politicians not knowing their ass from their elbow sort of thing.
