Oh lard.

Once again, women and our bodies are fodder for some liberal cause. This time, it’s Code Pink for Peace trying to convince women to use our sexuality as a bargaining chip, with their $12 bright-pink bikini panties proclaiming, “No Peace, No Pussy!” What’s that echo I hear? Hmmm, seems to be saying something like “Girls say yes to boys who say no!” And also something about “Those who cannot remember history are doomed to repeat it.”

For the one millionth time, I don’t care who you are or what your cause is, women’s bodies and sexuality are not weapons in your fight to achieve your political goals. Full stop.

Thanks Lierre.
