Holy Shite Women!

We have a real live heart beating, breathing forced birther here on DU!

How is one to graciously disagree with that amount of offensive, misogynistic BS? Why would it be expected that our tone should be nicer and that we ought to educate this type of buffoon? Something aint right!

It's not the OP, read through the replies!

These losers just don't realize women are human beings instead of animated flowerpots.

Human beings have the power to consent or to withhold consent. These losers have no concept of what consent means.

I don't think that particular pro-slavery poster is going to last here.

although he is flagged for review it is important to remember that skinner has indicated that being anti-choice is okay on DU. iows - the hateful troll will not be PPRed because the owners have no problem with his anti-Democratic position.

they are absolutely welcomed here as long as they are "polite." More than that, Skinner thinks watching us try to set aside our fury at having to defend the fact that we are actual people who get to decide what happens to our bodies is A-OK. Because he learns stuff, and he bets that other guys just like him learn stuff. And really, our right to unchallenged agency over our bodies is insignificant when that right is measured against the opportunity to teach stuff to guys who don't get it. Because let's not forget: those guys are what's important here!

All you said and more.

If I had wanted a boy to raise I would of had children. If I wanted to be a teacher I would have been a teacher.

I expect a place with Democratic in the name be a place that is well ...peopled with adults that are progressive, liberal and Democrats. Instead we have a bunch of bullies mansplainin' to us women folk that we need to shut up and enjoy the abuse and it starts at the top.

You can argue free speech all you want, but at the very least, people who go against the democratic party's policies on women's rights should NOT be welcome, period. If this little bioy wants to play at Discussionist, fine, biut not here.
