Left-wing actress Bette Midler suggests “all women refuse to have sex with men” in reaction to the Texas “heartbeat” law, which bans most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy.
“I suggest that all women refuse to have sex with men until they are guaranteed the right to choose by Congress,” the Loose Women actress tweeted on Thursday.

I’m all for that. Less regressive children around.
In your case Bette, you’d be doing men a favor.
No worries, Granny Pickles gots it.

Well, then there won’t be that many abortions that the women won’t be having, eh?
Those demanding abortion in TX can merely fly to Albuquerque or Shreveport and get their abortion.
OH.... NOW They want to exercise their REAL right to choice.
A Woman’s choice is made in the bedroom.
God makes HIS choice in the womb.
Hey Bette, do you live in Texas? If not shut up it has nothing to do with you.
True.
What a dumb ass.... Men are too busy looking at porn to have sex with real women.
Yah. You first. That won't be difficult, under (your) circumstances.
It DID work in Lysistrata! At least in the context of the play. :D But unlike here, the Greek women went on strike for a good reason.
Which brings back a funny memory. We read Lysistrata in a Comedy class in college...of course being ultra-liberal college students everyone was snickering at all the sexual innuendo in it. But when it came time to write a paper on it, I dug into the story deeper and ended up arguing that despite the subject matter, it was actually a very conservative play. The women represented family life and home (they defended the Acropolis with chamber pots, cooking utensils etc.). And at the end the women get the men to agree to peace terms by trotting out a drop-dead gorgeous woman called “Peace”. But interestingly, the amorous men don’t go after her, they all go back to their wives.
Lysistrata’s withholding of sex wasn’t an end in itself and it wasn’t purely for titillation or pleasure or power...it was a reminder to the men of all the comforts of home that they were harming by war.
I got the paper back with a very nice note from the professor that I was one of the only students who got past all the innuendo and really understood the point Aristophanes was making.
And I also learned—despite all the contrary propaganda—that conservatives write better literature and understand great literature far better than liberals do. I still stand by that! :)
Dang!
Glad they waited till I’m almost 88 (next month) to do this...
IMHO, they can go on strike forever...🙄
and men should stop supporting these women and ignoring them as long as they refuse sex
Plus don’t have sex with Bette.
PLEASE !!!!
I heard of this before, wasn’t it known as “abstinence” or some such????
I believe it was a R that said it.
Glad to hear them FINALLY approve!
yeah, I know. Was just throwing shade at the ignorant idea of the “lovely” Bette! ;>)
Evidently my wife is a trendsetter….but she told me she was pro-life. //sarc
haha! She’s got to be 10000 years old with insides festering with colonies of every known std on the planet.
I wonder if stories about youth treatments from aborted babies have any truth to them.
