DEMOCRATS: GLOBAL WARMING WILL FORCE WOMEN INTO PROSTITUTION

Human Events ^ | 4/29/2013 | David Harsanyi

A number House Democrats have written a resolution(PDF) calling on Congress to recognize that climate change will hurt the plight of women more than men; driving women into “transactional sex” for survival — among other horrible fates.

Now, nothing causes more transactional sex than poverty, and few conditions bring more poverty to women around the world than limiting capitalism and free trade. One wonders if a poor woman in say, Bangladesh, would be happier and healthier with a car, an air conditioner and processed food rather than that light carbon footprint they now carry? I wish they had a choice.

So next time you hear how free-market types are anti-science, think about these selections from a resolution dreamed up by Rep. Barbara Lee and friends (via The Hill):

• Whereas food insecure women with limited socioeconomic resources may be vulnerable to situations such as sex work, transactional sex, and early marriage that put them at risk for HIV, STIs, unplanned pregnancy, and poor reproductive health
• Whereas the direct and indirect effects of climate change have a disproportionate impact on marginalized women such as refugee and displaced persons, sexual minorities, religious or ethnic minorities, adolescent girls, and women and girls with disabilities and those who are HIV positive.
• Whereas women are often underrepresented in the development and formulation of policy regarding adaptation to climate change, even though they are often in the best
  position to provide and consult on adaptive strategies

… and so on.

GLOBAL WARMING WILL FORCE WOMEN INTO PROSTITUTION

To use one of the feminism's most Orwellian and ridiculous phrases against it, I'd just say that women will become even more "sex positive".

WOO!

[SIDENET]

Can you see Pelosi, Wasserman Shultze and Sheila Jackson Lee on the Stroll?

Okay, you just ruined it for me.

LOL.

[USNBandit]

According to the Senator from NJ the effects of global warming are already being seen in the Dominican Republic.

[Fai Mao]

At least it will give them jobs, that’s more than Obama has given them

[NoLibZone]

Democrat said Guam is in danger of tipping over.

[SIDENET]

We need Congress to teach all of these Global Warming victims how to be REAL prostitutes.

When it comes to being total whores, Congress has no equal.

GLOBAL WARMING FORCES -DEMOCRATS- INTO PROSTITUTION.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

Democrats have already forced women into prostitution by putting them out of jobs.

“Fascinating. How do they come up with this stuff?”

They don’t, most DEMS aren’t smart enough, especially in the House. Most of it comes from their fresh faced newly minted Marxist College educated advisers.

[UCANSEE2]

I love these satire articles.
