"The View" host Joy Behar called on women to go on a sex strike to protest against a possible overturning of Roe v. Wade by the Supreme Court. The proposed act of defiance in support of abortion was widely panned on social media based on ruthless Twitter reactions.
"Women in the world have conducted sex strikes in history," Behar said during Wednesday's episode of "The View." "In 2003, a sex strike helped to end Liberia's brutal civil war, and the woman who started it was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In 2009, Kenyan women enforced a sex ban until police political infighting ceased. Within one week, there was a stable government."
The audience applauded, and then the 79-year-old Behar stated, "We have more power than we think we do, and some of it could be in the bedroom. Just saying."
"The View" co-host Sara Haines chimed in, “And what a perfect weapon and method for the topic we're talking about."
Whoopi Goldberg added, "The other thing to remember is that this is not just about abortion, it covers so many things that you're not thinking about that wouldn't cross your mind because you think, 'Well, I thought that was the law.'"
Goldberg seemed to float a conspiracy theory that the 19th Amendment – which granted women the right to vote – is now threatened because Roe v. Wade could be potentially overturned.

Not drunk just been drinking that elixer from the doctor. Think it has heroin in it. Laudium?
You dodged a whole fusillade!
