Your body, my choice. A question for women.

The title does not imply just procreation, but all aspects of a woman's life so it's not a Roe V Wade question but one of men controlling women because they feel empowered to do so and that they have that right because they were born men.

Ladies, how do you feel about this? Will you/would you stand for it if men take the attitude that you have no sovereignty over yourself?

In the 19th century this was probably a woman's lot and she did not question it but fast forward a century and women of my generation would never put up with this attitude no matter what unless they're masochists.

It's hard to see this movement succeeding but I could be wrong. What do you think.
 

That slogan makes me feel sick. There will be those who hear it and believe it.
 

It is indeed sickening!! It’s no wonder young women don’t want to get married or have children. It makes them more vulnerable to abuse. Some men use their children to keep women in line and in relationships. There’s talk of getting rid of no fault divorce. This should concern all women.
 
Whoo, this is a sensitive topic...As I have mentioned, I would gladly take a man that abuses a woman or child for a walk in the woods and teach him a lesson.

And I agree domestic violence/issues need to stop. Period.

But, the statistics are not so cut and dry as they seem. It is a lot closer than they appear. The problem is that men rarely if ever report domestic violence, so the number of abused men is very low. And unfortunately women are fearful of reporting so their numbers can be off. But to the ones that do these are some stats from the domestic violence research project;
  • Overall, 22% of individuals assaulted by a partner at least once in their lifetime (23% for females and 19.3% for males)
  • Rates of female-perpetrated violence higher than male-perpetrated (28.3% vs. 21.6%)
  • Across studies, 40% of women and 32% of men reported expressive abuse; 41% of women and 43% of men reported coercive abuse
So it is not as dastardly as it seems. And in no means should either one do any of these things....AT ALL.

But as with in society itself, there are some problems just just sustain themselves despite at attempts to eliminate it.

Is the question here abuse or something else? If you wrap it in one big ball and insist it is all one thing, it makes it hard to do anything about it.

I'm seeing an awful lot of things decried as "abuse" by women. Even things like avoiding manipulation.

Men have left the friendzone without women realizing

Yes, there is talk of eliminating no fault divorce which saved money, time and hardship on those involved. It's really hard to believe this is happening but it is.
