An appreciation thread for the Lib/Dem men of DU that fight for women!
Edited on Fri May-19-06 06:45 PM by KyndCulture
I personally want to thank you all for everything you do to help our struggle for equality, identity in this country and reproductive freedom over our bodies.

It's a REAL man who can put himself in a woman's shoes and actually understand the great obstacles and utter outrages we are facing right now.

So many of you actually understood why this thread and this article upset your sisters in democracy so very much!

If I could buy you all a beer tonight, I would!

Thank you and:

:yourock:




Come on sisters.. show em some liberal love!

12. When I see a post from a DU man supporting women
I always am grateful. It means much when sometimes I start to believe that too many men just won't get it.

17. A man is no man who won't fight for equality


Why should one gender be enslaved to the other?


You go, girls!

Thank you all for supporting human rights for us women!! What is that quote that someone posted here the other day (paraphrase) "The treatment of women in a culture is a reflection of the character of the men of that culture."

24. Holy Shit.
I just clicked on your thread and saw that article. WTF is up with that?

I'm with ya wholeheartedly on this one. That is as offensive as anything I've ever read.

Kinda shaking my head on this one. Pre-pregnant? Almost was enough to make me laugh. Till I thought about how disturbingly sad it was.

We could fight the fight alone but it's so much nicer to have the support of the men in our lives.

29. The best thing to ever happen to a man is a Woman or vise-versa
Without you girls I would be nothing. I'm a guy who thinks that America needs a Woman President. At least she will listen

32. You are great.
I use these threads to increase my ignore list. This is one issue I tire of fighting although it does still need to be done.

33. Word. It doesn't take much to "get it," just a li'l thoughtfulness.
I like men, I really do--and I love two of them like crazy.

Thanks, y'all!

36. I think a great philosopher sums it up
"Have you noticed people who are against abortion are people you wouldn't wanna fuck in the first place?!" -- George Carlin

Oh fine, he's a few more:

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."
-- Teddy Roosevelt

"Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts."
- Daniel Patrick Moynihan.

"When even one American - who has done nothing wrong - is forced by
fear to shut his mind and close his mouth, then all Americans are in
peril. " - Harry Truman

"All Laws Which Are Repugnant to The Constitution Are Null And Void"
-- Marbury Vs. Madison 5 US 137,174

... we've got yours.

We just can't fight the good fight without each other.

edited to add: thanks for the link -- that was a truly righteous rant -- and a mind-boggling article that sparked it.

40. Sexism was the last ism I understood
in its entirety. I see what your saying everyday.

I have a copy of an LTTE I had published over twenty years ago that gets into abortion as a class issue. I'll have to dig that up.
