Alyssa Milano steps in it again

Alyssa Milano wants a sex strike.  She tried to pass it off as feminism.  It's not, as many noted.  We'll note Jessica Valenti's response to Alyssa's nonsense.

    This about covers it

    Please stop feeding the narrative that women are providers and men are consumers of sex. Bribing men for equal rights with access to our bodies is not how feminism works.

    Also I hate the idea that not having sex is a punishment for men but not for women - I like sex! Why should I deprive myself of it? And lots of women don't fuck men anyway!

The idea of a - where sex is something men seek and women withhold - is the same regressive model of sexuality that Republican men use to legislate! No thanks.

      Also a big part of the reason GOP men want to ban abortion is because they hate the idea of women having non-married, non-procreative sex! If anything we should be doing more fucking! I'll stop soon, I promise. This just set me off

      I get being defensive when people don't like your big idea, but these kinds of responses - to seasoned activists, no less - are really frustrating.

      Like, telling the founder of Bitch magazine and a woman who takes on the fucking NRA that they're cool with women going to jail for abortion because they don't like her idea is wack as hell

      Help women in Georgia by supporting the activists who are already there doing the work. Abortion funds & orgs like & are good places to start.
