I am shaking with rage, unable to write until now. You see, I just read one more diary about the right wing belief that women "need to pay to play". This diary may take all night to write because I am still shaking. I will try to be calm to counter their lies and statements of belief. They really do want women back under control, don't they? They really do want to take us back to 1850.

1. That's a damn good rage.

I encourage everyone to read the whole thing. I can't wait to read part two.

2. I didn't read the article

But it seems like one of the "real rapes" is Virginia's abortion bill. The trans-vaginal ultrasound meets the definition of rape.

3. Lest we all forget what it was like "back then"

I've heard so much of it from my mother, but I wasn't born until 1969. While there was still discrimination growing up (girls don't do math and shouldn't take Algebra), it seemed like we had come SO far listening to my mother's stories from growing up (was forbidden from wearing pants and had to wear makeup to high school. She was so happy that in her senior year of HS, they allowed girls to finally wear other than skirts. But they couldn't be full length pants. They won the right to wear capris).

4. Yes all they way back to 1850 B.C.

Repukes would still be dragging women into their caves (after hitting her with a club) if we all still lived in caves! I almost believe they would bring back slavery...if they thought they could get away with it.
