You're viewing a single thread.
I had no idea there states that if you're female you can't get a divorce without consent. That's insane. I'm going guess they're all red states since they're big on not respecting women.
It's the same for both persons In a marriage though
Sure, but when these laws were passed they were intended to keep women down. Just like women couldn't vote or have back accounts. The fact they still exist, along with more of our rights being reduced, shows the misogynistic intent.
The law in Missouri, for example, only bans pregnant women from seeking a divorce.
Yeah the abuser and the abusee ... You don't see the issue here?
This is the definition of dense.
Why would the socialists oppose women's right to choose?
In US. politics, red refers to places with a (usually large) majority of Republican voters.
That's dumb. Probably shouldn't use it when talking online because its backwards from the rest of the world.
America is the only country that matters. Sorry.
Dear downvoters... I'm pretty sure the picture of a bald eagle in front of a US flag is a stand-in for "/s".
Maybe. Maybe not. The ambiguity makes it fun :3
We frequently are shown photos in black and white to give a distance. Makes people feel like it was eons ago.
It wasn't that long ago that women had rights. There are people still alive who were part of the first wave of women in the office.
