If you are a woman how do you vote Republican with stuff like this going on in the party? Just sayn’. Found this on The Dancing Professor, go there for a fantastic read/rant as well.
That whole male-gaze/female objectification thing is soooooo out to lunch.
Go to the Tumblr to see the rest.
Brilliant repost straight from DAMMIT JANET! – One internetz for those folks over there, stat!
“If you are an anti-feminist woman and you vote — even for candidates who’d stop that nonsense in a nanosecond — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman and you enjoy the rights of contract and property law — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman but sadly divorced yet benefitting from family law reforms (allowing you to have custody of your children, for example) — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who practices safe, legal family planning including contraception and abortion (we won’t tell anyone) — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who wants to or needs to work ‘outside the home’ — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who works and is paid the same as the man in the next cubicle — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who has achieved higher education — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman in a profession formerly seen as ‘male’ — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman with recourse to sexual harassment/discrimination remedies in the workplace — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who needs daycare for her children — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who took maternity leave to have those children — you didn’t build that.
And if you are an anti-feminist man whose mother, sister, daughter, wife, girlfriend, and female friends benefit from any of those things — you CERTAINLY didn’t build that.
Anti-feminist women love to SHRIEEEK: ‘Feminists don’t speak for me!’
No. We don’t.
But our accomplishments — and ongoing struggles — benefit ALL of you.
You’re welcome.”

Important issue: did you like having control of your ladyparts?
Do get out and vote and stop the republican war on women.
Need fetus porn and bullshit arguments? Look up your local, if you’re unlucky, pro-life chapter. This video illustrates the basic lie that hovers below the surface of much of pro-life land. Being pro-life is *not* about preserving life it is about removing choice from women, thus in reality anti-choice is a much more appropriate moniker for this particular subset of deluded people.
An estimated 40 million abortions will take place in the developing world in 2012. Most of these procedures will be clandestine and unsafe, taking a terrible toll on women’s lives. Reducing the number of unsafe abortions is essential for improving public health. And it’s the basic right of every woman to decide whether and when to have a child—without having to put her health or life at risk.
