Creepy Republicans keep claiming they need to protect women

[Quiet Em]

Truth and reality is women need protection from them.

Repulsive losers.

1. their saudi friends claim to protect women as well

"whether they like it or not..."

[Iris]

2. Apparently, a lot of women like that sort of talk

Based on the number of women who voted for him. Mostly white women. I feel like many of us have internalized that crap.

16. I hate to rec this post, but I can't deny the unfortunate truth.

17. Felt the same when I wrote it. I have sadly learned to accept this.

I never much fit in with my fellow-white ladies and now I understand why.

4. Plenty of gangsters promise protection.

Just sayin'.

5. All part of the cynically deceptive MAGA

RUSE of "less government."

Fascism is the ANTITHESIS of "less government."

6. Ya know

my Father taught me how to protect myself.

He used to make me so mad as a teenager. “Do you have a dime?” as I headed out the door. Date or group of friends didn’t matter until the night it did.

Thanks Dad!

12. A dime?

[Demobrat]

13. Back in the day there were these things called pay phones.

They cost a dime.

19. How is a dime and a pay phone

going to help a person who is actively being assaulted?

20. Yep, boy do I remember those days!

“A dime and a telephone.”

That’s what one of the leading local news anchors extolled during a speech to our local/regional news organization. As in - that’s all you needed to get on the air to report a story from the field. You’d call in, whoever was on the desk took your call and fed you into the open editing booth to record your report.

Then you hung up and went back to wherever the action was, to collect more interviews, get new angles on the story, and enlarge the report in any way you could.

Just keep a dime handy whenever you were in the field, so you could call in and at least do a voicer on whatever was happening. THAT was the key. And THEN you figured out how to feed tape after you’d fed them an initial report. You could also unscrew the phone’s mouthpiece and use your clip leads to feed tape from your tape recorder through the phone to the bureau.

Ahhhh… what memories, what memories. But, gotta say, even I with my limited engineering skills could handle at least that. Besides, you could polish it up with another set of reports after you got back into the newsroom.

23. And of course you could always find a pay phone.

Because they were all over.

Women are under house arrest for their own good.
And cannot appear in front of windows in their own homes to protect them.

[magicarpet]

9. Creating the mirage of a strong, protective,...

.... caring alpha male who's only mission in life is to keep women safe, comfortable, and happy.

Like Pete Hegseth - djt's nomanee for Sec.Defense. Unless he gets all liquored up and his libido gets out of hand. Then ladies,... run for the hills,... do not stop to catch your breath. Watch out for any date rape drugs going into your refreshments.

11. Republican's need to protect women

from the hazards of thinking, being independent, speaking their minds, and all the other things men have always enjoyed but are simply unacceptable in "the fairer" sex.

[Demobrat]
