"A sea of pink-hatted protesters"

Recommended Posts

Bump that up to 20 cents to adjust for inflation and explain to me how I'm trying to guilt trip

 

You're meant to laugh at some of the funny protesters, not get all teary and upset

 

Don't tell people how they're supposed to feel, especially when you're once again mocking people for expressing sympathy for anyone.

 

You just answered your own question. You ask for an explanation on how you guilt trip people, and then immediately tell people how they should react to something by framing "teary and upset" as the "wrong" reaction.

Well part of the problem is that a march for Women's rights is being misconstrued as a march against Men. Like yeah, some of the people involved probably do hate men, but the overwhelming majority of the movement just want better women's rights. It's like saying a protest to pay Apple Farmers more is an attack on Orange Farmers.

Pretty sure I was more focused on saying that it was brought and payed for by a Nazi sympathizer and that they weren't genuine feminists cause instead of protesting the people who stone them to death for getting raped, they're protesting the poor bloke who wants to give them 500Billion in maternity leave

The right to get a safe abortion at any point in a woman's pregnancy. 

What about the women you're killing?

What does the Middle East have to do with women's rights in the West? That's just a copout.

Mate, if you're gonna cry over that video of the girl in Chicago losing her sheet and throwing cans, I'm not gonna stop you.

 

My intention was for people to laugh at it. None of this is "guilt tripping"

What do women in Japan have to do with an American president? Them marching is just a copout

 

Edit: Also since when did only western woman matter? I thought this was for all women?

foh you're starting the abortion thread again and you've been warned about this already

Except I'm not? I'm just stating a fact that Trump is pushing for Maternity leave against the GOP's wishes. In what bullshit world is that "starting the abortion threat again"

I don't know, mutual agreement of ideals? Feminism isn't just a movement exclusive to the US. If those women in Japan want to march for women's rights in America, let them.

I agree, but you're the one who started it by restricting it to only western women

 

If abortions are to be legal the ENTIRE pregnancy, how about a 35 week old female baby?

Methinks the lady doth protest too much.

 

You always talk about "crying" in such a dismissive tone, so yes, you are guilt tripping.

Abortions after the 1st Trimester make up a small percentage of Abortions. Making them more accessible will increase the numbers, sure, but it likely won't skew the numbers out of the statistics we already have, just raise each number. The fact is most expecting mothers actually want to give birth to their baby. Women who desperately want an abortion will get one, safe or otherwise, leading to health complications and deaths of adult women in extreme cases. I'm sorry, but an adult woman has every right to everything that happens inside her body.

And if you improve access and reduce stigma, you will further reduce the number of late-term abortions, because women won't be shamed from seeking one in the first place.

So now I have to be approving of your crying? What sorta newspeak 1984 bullshit is this.

 

Methinks the lady doth a bit loopy

 

 

And I'm gonna laugh at it, but don't let my feelings stop you from crying

Current law would agree with this statement. I don't see the issue? You might be talking to the wrong person Wahr

So one heavily debated and extremely divisive issue. Is that all?

Yeah.  This is exactly what I was concerned about.  This is complicated because part of the Women's March was indeed on the topic of women's sexual health and abortion access.  But this is becoming the abortion thread all over again.  What's done is done.  You guys aren't mature enough to handle this.
