What if women went on a sex strike before the midterms?

Article here. Excerpt:

'It's time for a revolution. At the polls, and in the bedroom. And in our understanding of who women are, sexually and otherwise. Given the tight interweaving of economic and political power with sexual entitlement, female sexual autonomy has never been more urgent, and women's sexual pleasure has never been more political. Let's consider what it might mean to go on a sex strike of sorts -- to get what we want, rather than give what we think we owe others.

Sex and status are linked. Where men have the tightest grip on resources and power, our society (including the women in their lives) will prioritize their pleasure -- and create false narratives about what women deserve, sexually and otherwise. To wit: in 2018, the number of female CEOs of US Fortune 500 companies dropped 25%, to 24 women total among hundreds of men leading industry, tech, manufacturing, and other sectors. On a more workaday level, according to World Bank data cited by TheGlobalEconomy.com the US ranks an unimpressive 76th out of 180 countries worldwide for female labor force participation.
...
A women's sex strike against service sex, a refusal to do it out of a sense of obligation, would force us to confront these basic inequalities. Our current administration has amped up the notion that women are mere extensions of male will and pleasure, there to serve at every turn. What is the rollback of reproductive rights but an assertion that not only female reproduction but female sexuality itself belong to what science writer Natalie Angier calls the "Greater Male Coalition"? What are the President's insults to Stormy Daniels other than assertions that the woman who enjoys sex or profits from it in any way -- emotionally, financially, or physically -- is unnatural, immoral, and unattractive? In this world order, female sexual autonomy is not only dangerous and destabilizing; it is increasingly hard to imagine. And female pleasure is irrelevant, even pathological, if it exists at all.'

I say, go on a sex strike until you get everything you want. It'll work. No sex until all feminist demands are met.

Your husbands and boyfriends need you. They can get sex from only one source: you. The streets are not at all crawling with cheap junkie hookers. Cheap whores NEVER advertise on the Internet. And men in LTRs with the sort of women who seriously consider going on a sex strike are just the kind of women men ALWAYS stay with.

Do it!

I believe that if all the women in the world who who think the same as the author went on a sex strike, no one would really notice. If fact, many may be relieved.

an oxymoron that defines waaaaay over half of the country. I guess w/ all the female lawmakers going to congress we can expect even more gender specific laws. some suggestions:

* how about every state follow more feminist controlled states by adopting 'permanent alimony' for women who have 'suffered' through a marriage for 10 years. I know Robin Williams would have liked that. he was about to be hit w/ his 4th when he committed suicide, not that the press would have covered that.

* let's make sterner laws to make sure married/divorcing men never are allowed to test their children's d.n.a. to be sure they really are the fathers.

* let's make laws guaranteeing no man is ever believed when accused of crimes by women/girls.

* let's make double sure all judges are schooled in making sure women always get the better deal in divorce court.

* let's make laws allowing courts to prosecute men for sex crime allegations by women from decades before, even w/o evidence or corroborating witnesses.

* let's make laws making sure women can abort fetuses for any reason at any time during pregnancy.

* let's continue the fight against having a child's d.n.a. tested at birth, no matter the future harm done to the offspring later in life by not having that record on hand as a certain means of identification if needed.

* let's pass laws to make sure women continue to receive only a fraction of the prison sentences of men for the same crimes.

* let's pass laws ensuring women making false allegations against men are not punished for same, no matter how devastating to those innocents, and their families.

* let's get some laws made making any negative reference to women by men a form of hate speech.

* let's have some more laws allowing women to sue men for any alleged affront, especially if the guy is rich.

* let's have some laws giving women more special privileges in society, like special women's trains, buses, universities, and so forth.

* let's have laws giving women a minimum stipend by the government every month, paid for (like everything else) by men of course.

hey, I can do this all day long. most of this stuff, and much more, has already been proposed or put into place all over the women worshipping western nations. yep, I have to agree. this is the beginning of some more, really big handout opportunities for women. what could go wrong?
