Can we talk about how the amount of anti abortion women and anti abortion men is about equal?

permalink

Sure, that doesn’t seem to be true?

Gallup found the following:

  • Pro-life: Men 49%, Women 33%
  • Pro-choice: Men 45%, Women 63%

Women are also more in favour of less restrictions on abortion (e.g. from X weeks) than men.

I actually agree with you. Men did a terrible job of things, and now we have to deal with the patriarchy. Movements like 4B have been a long time coming, but I worry that men as a whole aren’t mature enough to clean up their act. Time will tell.

Ah, yes, the pinnacle of masculinity: whining that people fighting for their survival and freedom didn’t pay enough care to the feelings of people who didn’t think their struggle was all that big of a deal in the first place.

Maybe if you weren’t out to spite the people who you believe have beef with you specifically, you’d realize that the struggle against patriarchy benefits men as well, but you’d have to recognize that there are plenty of men that are specifically marginalized by those that up hold their preferred version of masculinity is the only valid way to be a man.

Or, you could skip all that and blame it all on women hating men because some depiction of a woman said something mean to a depiction of a disrespectful man and take it to have meant you specifically, I guess.

Check the skin tone and age cohort. You’re going to find some large discrepancies. Also skews heavily by education, as women early in their collegiate or professional careers tend to be significantly more sensitive about the prospect of getting pregnant than peers in low-paying jobs with little upward mobility.

There’s definitely a profile of a pro-abortion and anti-abortion voter.

A man is being a bit sarcastic and the angry feminist protester is threatening to mutilate his genitals?

If you think it’s just one man being a little sarcastic then you need to open your eyes to the stripping of bodily autonomy going on all over the place.

Yeah, it’s not cool to threaten someone’s genitals and remove their agency in what happens to them. Congratulations, you are currently standing on The Point.

I don’t get it either. isn’t turpentine just a paint thinner, sometimes used in mixes to make varnishes or clean furniture? smells awful.

The Devils Panties tends to use that character to depict an amalgamation of Gamergate, Rapist Brock Allen Turner, Kyle Rittenhouse, and every online debatebro combined, and so the other characters are written to react to him in such a way.

Looks a little too clean cut for Gamer Brock Rittenhouse or a debate bro, seems more like a Christian frat type.

If there isn’t at least some non-zero amount of tin-snips and turpentine, then the protest is a parade.

Coincidentally, Lowes is having a black friday on tin snips: https://www.lowes.com/pl/hand-tools/cutting-crimping-tools/tin-snips/on-sale/4294857583-2

Turpentine I can understand having for various reasons (lighting shit on fire, removing paint/ink/pepperspray), but what is the need for tin snips? cutting the zip-tie handcuffs used by riot police?

I think they’re for performing the vasectomies as alluded to in the second panel. I assumed the turps is for make-shift antiseptic.

OP just made it sound like they are needed for any type of protest or demonstration, so I assumed they had use beyond just reproductive rights marches. Plus, turpentine can be used as an antiseptic, but there are lots of less conspicuous antiseptics available.

I like your answer, too, though.
