About the proposals to eliminate no-fault divorce. . a weird thought struck [View all]

me while reading DU'er moniss' most excellent OP:

These woman-hating patriarchal assholes are going to have to make laws preventing women from buying guns, poisons, etc., one would think. Maybe kitchen implements as well. Many medicines. Why? Obvious, yes?? You trap people into intolerable situations, some WILL find a way out. As a character in a recent novel stated, shaking and crying after just shooting her murderous, abusive husband, "Is he dead? I don't care if I go to jail, as long as he is dead."

Or, will the marriage rate decline? Birth rates? Will they bar women from professions again, hoping to force them into marital servitude?

Or, will women rise up in righteous anger, and stop this patriarchal, woman-hating insanity?
