I grew up in East Texas (and moved back two years ago). I promise you, most rural Texans will tell you the side Texas was on.
Unfortunately it seems like a lot of folks in Ohio will answer incorrectly about us
Reminder that Texas is the only state to fight a war for slavery twice!
But who's to say they won't go for a third?
I heard that they are actively paying bounty hunters to track down pregnant women. WTF? Is their knuckle working at all?
So the right does not actually care about HIPAA anymore?
For women?
No.
For men and dick pills?
Absolutely.
Texas women, you’re just gonna take that huh.
Hm.
Are you trying to blame the victim?
I wasn't aware there are no Republican women in Texas.
You didn't say Republican women, just women.
What would you have us do? Paxton isn't going anywhere anytime soon and Texans do not have the power to recall officials. We can't protest because in 2023 they passed a law making basically all protests illegal.
Even if Texas goes blue Abbott and Paxton are still in office because they're not up for reelection this year. Plus the state is so gerrymandered, even if it did go blue nationally, locally the dems probably couldn't retake the state government.
Hate to say it but even if Kamala wins any women or queer person in Texas who can leave, should.
You know that famous Texas saying: "Don't tread on me, unless you're a christofacist, then HARDER."
What the fuck is with republicans and their desire to know the entire history of a woman’s genitals.
Please provide your pussy resume.

What's this 3 year gap?
I applied to renew my virginity.
It's really fucking weird.
It's always been a thing.
Chastity belts, checking if a woman's hymen is intact before marriage (rapper TI admits he does this to his daughters), female genital mutilation (FGM), etc have been used to control women's sex lives for hundreds/thousands of years.
I feel bad for his daughter. Can’t even have a dildo.
Also it probably means she's gets regularly sexually assaulted by her father.
It's because they don't know enough about their wife's own genitals. They don't see those often enough to learn anything lol.
But in all seriousness: Very rape-y vibes from those guys, I have to say. Pretty gross.
Its because women are treated as property just like children are to these men. They only think for themselves and how their family can serve them best, and expect everyone to bend to their will and morals, whether they change daily or not.
America has a huge problem with raising a generation of people who's focus was greed and who see life as a competition with other people as winners or losers. The concept of considering another perspective is completely foreign.
this is so profoundly scummy, on top of being fascist
