In Ireland we call that marriage

TheValeyard

Sure some of the posters here have been on strike for years.

magentis

With a jaw line like that she can stay on strike.

One eyed Jack

Has she never heard of condoms?

Pauliedragon

Does she not understand that some women might want to have sex with their significant other/stranger etc? What about their rights?

KikiLaRue

I’ve been on an involuntary sex strike for months!

Ah come on, no one has the ‘right’ to sex.

No need to buy in bulk.

Alrigghtythen

Is she trying to control what I do own bed?

The men in the US who are against abortion and can do something about it tend to be rich white Republican politicians.

As they tend to have sex with women who aren't their wives, the strike is pointless.

biko

What isn't clear from the article is what Milano wants the limit to be?
3 months like Europe?
Until the moment of birth?

Outlaw Pete

She's asking liberals in America to go on a sex strike?

Well, that's one way to cut the abortion rate. Thanks, Alyssa.

fryup

ah well, you can always have a **** :cool:

muffler

It would be great craic if she was a nymphomaniac.The strike wouldn't last too long

Such BS. Abstinence is the way her "enemies" on the religious right in the US recommend... She is just agreeing with them.

biko

It'a like a modern version of "Lips That Touch Liquor Shall Not Touch Ours"

Wibbs

Sounds awfully like the type of woman who gets little enough from the act itself, but views being "allowed" to screw her as a means of control and a reward for “correct behaviour”.

Maybe men should go on a love strike? That will show them.

suicide_circus

so during this strike, sex would be forbidden...taboo...wrong...we must not....give in to...temptation

gammygils

So in other words she couldn't give a fu¢k!

bottlebrush

the sheep may watch out. . .

Outlaw Pete

She went so far left she ended up on the right :P

Odelay

Sounds like an ideal time to discuss chore sex.

Kolido

Charming.

She's a lunatic with a dwindling film career looking for ways to stay relevant.

Alyssa Milano, god bless her, seems to embody every ugly aspect of women nowadays.

Abortions up to 39 weeks.
Hates Donald Trump. But supports Biden, a real creep.
Narcissistic.
Went so far as to call herself transgender IIRC and rightly got slapped down by real transgender people recently.

She really does seem to have drunk all the kool aid.

Something definitely ****ed up her brain as a child actress.

And worst of all...... she records vertically!

Can't be arsed reading the thread. If this is real, it is turning women into sex machines. I always love a good whack of discrimination against your own cause.

Where does she say she wants abortion up to 39 weeks? I think it's more that she doesn't agree with the stupidly low limit of 6 weeks or with women being locked up for having an abortion, or with women having to prove that a miscarriage was a natural event and not deliberate to avoid being charged with a crime. That's the situation women in Georgia find themselves in and it's ridiculous. Having said that, a sex strike is a bit of a silly idea.

Maybe your problem with women originated with calling them things like ugly.

In the rest of your post, you complained that she hates Trump but declared that in fact Joe Biden is a "real" creep. Some of Biden's behaviour has indeed been inappropriate, but the cognitive dissonance here is staggering.

That's an odd sentence. It assumes the poster has a problem with women and misreads the use of the ugly description. He(I presume) reckoned some aspects were ugly. Bit of a difference. He also didn't make any excuses for Trump, but merely pointed out her support of another creep.

Dunno about lunatic, but the rest of that rings true alright. A fairly large percentage of the "celebrities" men and women falling behind #metoo and marching for women stuff are well past their sell by date in the business and there is the not so faint sniff of any publicity will serve their personal cause. As far as Hollywood is concerned the relative lack of current box office draws, again both men and women, suggests what went on in the past continues to do so and the same omerta surrounding the shadier side is in play for those still benefiting from it.

I said it before on the Harvey Weinstein thread(IIRC) that I'd bet if the #metoo movement had been around in the 90's when he was making major bank for the studios and with "worthy" films, even he would avoided the limelight.

suicide_circus, you've thanked a copy pasta.

True, I'm sure when he holds forth on 'the problem with women' nowadays, women within earshot will spontaneously ovulate, and pairs of knickers are flung in his general direction.

My reference to his problem with women though, was more colloquial. I meant that he seems to take issue with them in a very general way.

I love the irony of this.

What's the problem with calling someone ugly.
She's clearly not physically ugly if that's what you are saying.
She is clearly a good looking woman, conventionally.

Of course I mean ugly as I would mean "he or she has an ugly personality/attitude/worldview/mindset".

Why is the term ugly so triggering

That's exactly what I took the term to mean. I didn't point that out, because whether you're talking about physical appearance or personality, people tend to find it equally repellant.

It isn't triggering, it just means that people might not want to be in your company, or might not be friendly towards you.

There are amazing women around. Not sure why you think I think there aren't.

And I'm not sure why you're connecting an opinion I have about some narcissistic women with sex.

They're independent for me (and any reasonable, intellectually honest person I would imagine). My opinion on some women like Alyssa Milano are unchanged by whatever you are on about.

Unless you're talking about those guys who are all feminist to get women.

Ok, no such thing as a person with ugly attitudes.
Everyone is beautiful inside with beautiful intentions always.

Funnily enough the people in America who want to control women's bodies don't actually give a **** about the child once it's born. Born into poverty? So work harder and don't dare ask for state assistance you cretin! We forced your mother to give birth to you, our work here is done. They honestly dont care one bit about children being born into dire circumstances. Seems to be the general attitude of these absolute hypocrites.

In Georgia they also want to ban the morning after pill and stop insurance funding for contraceptives like the pill and IUDs. They want to force women into becoming pregnant and then force them to continue the pregnancy. It's shocking. Maybe if those laws come to pass then a sex strike would be the only way a woman can protect herself.

Don’t know much about Milano. Is she for abortions up to 39 weeks?

Her sex strike suggestion is silly but maybe she’s just trying to draw attention to what’s happening in Georgia.

I'm kind of baffled by this. Trump made a few distasteful comments in private about grabbing a pussy and had consensual sex with a few adult women of similar vintage to himself, but otherwise what has he done on the scale of feeling up young girls like Biden?

He was the first developer in NY to hire a woman engineer to run the original Trump tower back in the 70s when the conventional wisdom was that women couldn't do the job.

Ivanka ran the Trump businesses together with him as an equal partner.

I'm not a fan of Trump but he is not as bad as the media make him out to be in terms of women.

Everything Hollywood produces lately has to go through the PC and diversity filters first, and it's killing the quality of the product. Its like North Korean propoganda films.

I mean there were complaints that Dunkirk featured too many white males. FFS....

Oh dont try to control my body but its ok to kill a little body because I dont feel like giving birth to it.no point getting into a debate on abortion, I will never understand anyone who thinks it ok. Iv zero religion btw.

My thoughts too. She’s okay with abortions up to 39 weeks but not 40? That seems... unlikely.
