I feel I'm going to be saying this a lot... Women, repeat after me: "MAGA cut off. No pussy for 4-years."

Nothing else, not even a pithy one-liner, nothing for them to grab onto or ague about, simply a hard NO. Can y'all please make this a real movement?

Wasn't there a pair of warring African tribes where the women got together and told the men they were cut off until they made peace? May be misremembering a bit, but it worked, instantly.

EDIT: Looks to be more than one such story in Africa alone.

I think you miss the implication of, "Your body, my choice."

It's not about abortion. It's about rape. They are threatening rape. Telling a rapist that you are withholding sex means nothing to them.

Just stop having sex with the men threatening to rape you!

*I missed the implication too, no shade to the OP

There was an ancient Greek play by Aristophanes.

Edit: someone needs to put this on without modernizing it. This sounds hilarious.

A Spartan herald then appears with a large burden (an erection) scarcely hidden inside his tunic and he requests to see the ruling council to arrange peace talks. The magistrate, now also sporting a prodigious burden, laughs at the herald's embarrassing situation but agrees that peace talks should begin.

I read it in college. Went in thinking I would hate it. I was very wrong.

There is the 4B movement. I don't know much about it, but I think it started in South Korea. Basically, women are swearing off men for...I don't know how long.

Breed them out of existence.
