    Well, whether they're getting too much or not enough attention you can be sure of one thing...


    ...it's the white man's fault.

    Too bad the attention and lifestyle her husband gives her is not enough. If the husband said the same stuff, he would be destroyed.

    "Actress Alyssa Milano ignited social media with a tweet calling for women to join her in a sex strike to protest strict abortion bans passed by Republican-controlled legislatures.

    The former star of "Charmed" and "Melrose Place" urged women in the tweet Friday night to stop having sex "until we get bodily autonomy back." Her tweet came days after Georgia became the fourth state in the U.S. to ban abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected — about six weeks into a pregnancy and before many women know they're pregnant.

    Milano told The Associated Press on Saturday that "the stakes are never higher than right now" because the laws are "outrageous" and could be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court, which conservatives hope will overturn Roe v. Wade."

    Meh, I don't think I had much of a chance with her anyway. I am still okay with her abstinence until the law is amended. Maybe the longer the timeframe the better my chances.

    The twitter replies from the fem troops are pure gold.

    Well, without sex abortion becomes a non issue.
    This idiot sure does yell a lot of bullshit.

    This is why you're going to keep hearing more and more of those stories of women being stranded/robbed/attacked/etc and no man stopping to help them. It's sad really, especially when we're biologically programmed to protect them.

    "Mr Basic said the incident has deterred him from stopping and helping a young woman ever again."

    I don't hold doors for them now. Too many dirty looks or attitude when I did the nice thing. Just because I was being nice does not mean I want to bang you. :eek:

    Nice to know his wife threw in the towel immediately. I hope his job is his again now that the lying piece of trash admitted it.

    I will hold door for anyone where I feel the situation is appropriate. Do they have your hands full of stuff? I will hold the door for them and I don't care if they are hairy 6'3" dude that looks like he could play linebacker or a 5' tall blonde gal. If I am leaving through a swing out door and someone is coming in, I hold it from them, as it is easy for me since I already have the door open and in my hand.

    Will I run up ahead of some lady just to hold the door for them? Nope unless they are obviously handicapped or carrying a bunch of stuff and I feel it would be way easier for me to open the door than it would be for them to open the door. It is about basic courtesy and has nothing to do with gender or sex.

    pickled egg Tell me more

    Well this morning my 7yr old held the outer door for me as I dropped her off at school, then for the woman and her three children behind me. I in turn opened the inner door and held it for the woman and her three children and my daughter. It was remarkably timely as last night we were discussing the meanings of courteous and discourteous, and holding the door was the example I used.

    The best part? When we were all inside the woman stepped aside so I could check my kid in first, and had her children thank us for being courteous.

    Civility. What a concept!

    I hold the door for folks older than me regardless of gender. The list is getting shorter.

    I think a big part of it stems from people just becoming more and more miserable in their everyday lives. Happy and content people do not behave like this, whether its by themselves or towards their fellow human beings. As people's lives become easier and more convenient they somehow find a way to be more miserable in turn?

    It's not a good mix here:

    I still hold it for the little old ladies and old men. Also people that seem to be happy and actually reply back after I say "hello".

    The entitled Karen can get bent!
