Note to All Men about "Your Body; My Choice":

[MineralMan]

Starting now, if you hear someone use the "Your Body; My Choice" nonsense, immediately call that person out and let them know that they should STFU with that shit. If a female friend or acquaintance tells you that someone has confronted them with that nonsense, go to the person who did that and let them know, in no uncertain terms that nothing had better happen to your friend or acquaintance or you'll be the one they have to answer to.

We, as men, really need to nip this crap in the bud from the very beginning. We owe that to the women we know.

Of course, you already know better than to use that phrase yourself, right?

[wryter2000]

1. I don't think you'll find too many of them here

I'd be pretty shocked if you did.

[MineralMan]

2. I agree. However, you'll find a lot who will stand up for

the women they know and care about if someone pulls that crap.

[B.See]

10. Actually it scares me

to think what I might say or do if someone pulled that shit.

[SoFlaBro]

34. I don't want to post what I will do in response goddammit but anyone would be fucking wise not say that shit around me.

[ancianita]

22. I'd prefer that men ALL stand up even for the women they don't know.

This isn't about how close the battle is to men. This about all men standing up for women who have to face this battle at all.

[MineralMan]

24. Sounds like a good plan.

I haven't encountered anyone saying or wearing that. If I do. I'll speak right up, I promise

[wryter2000]

33. Very true

[jimfields33]

8. I think only on line will you hear this. I never would have known it was a thing without DU mentioning it.

[MANative]

15. A young acquaintance of mine was confronted with this crap on her college campus...

in Connecticut. Someone had posted it on an internal message board. It's out there.

As a woman of a certain age, I can't begin to tell you how enraging this juvenile misogyny is. I'm holding back - no one wants to hear me get wound up on this, trust me. The rant would be beyond epic, bordering on it's own level of lunacy.

[Attilatheblond]

27. Saw report of this happening to girls at an elementary school. Very young boy involved

Wonder what else that little boy is hearing at home

[choie]

32. I'd be shocked if there were ANY here!

n/t

[Hekate]

3. MinMan...

[MineralMan]

4. Right back at you!

[Ocelot II]

5. And for women, the response should be "Your nuts, my knee."

[MineralMan]

7. Yes, that, too!

[Walleye]

16. That's just what I was gonna write

[Attilatheblond]

28. or: Your nuts, my loppers

[SoFlaBro]

36. I fucking like this! I'm with women. I'm on some real stupid shit when it come to defending women.

I'm on my fucking bully bout THAT.

[SomedayKindaLove]

38. Someone on DU replied the other day on a different thread

“My body, my 9mm.”

[Otto_Harper]

6. My innate programming as a man

is to wade in and protect the woman. Its in the firmware.

[MineralMan]

9. Yes. It's more about recognizing the threat.

Then acting accordingly.

[tetedur]

11. When a man says that to a woman she ought to say "In your dreams baby - you'll never get close to this body."

[Lovie777]

12. Women response that I read.....

Your balls, my foot.

[Walleye]

18. Yep!

[bdamomma]

13. I think

those who say this filth, is to ban all Viagra/Cialis meds, if they ban Mifepristone we should fight fire with fire,

How many times can we see that advertisement ????? Let's hit them below the belt???

How would be able to do this???

Thanks MineralMan

[MineralMan]

14. I don't know how you'd ban those ED drugs.

I can't think of any way to do that. Not a bad idea, though.

[Hope22]

23. We need to approach the Supreme Court.

God broke that thing for a reason and men should not interfere with the plan!

[BlueTsunami2018]

17. I don't see any situation where I would say that.

It’s dumb first of all.

Secondly, I’m not a child to go around taunting people.

I don’t see any reason for anyone to be saying this.

But the kids are all in with these incel podcasters and such. The internet is at once the best and worst thing ever. It’s easy to radicalize people, fool them and scam them. People just aren’t that smart.

[MineralMan]

19. It's not about you saying it.

It's about someone you know having it said to them. I thought that was clear in my OP. Oh, well.

[BlueTsunami2018]

21. Your inquiry at the end sparked my response.

I honestly don’t anticipate hearing anyone say this, ever.

But in the off chance I do, I would certainly say something.

[apcalc]

20. A good reply????.....My foot, your Balls.

[Katcat]

40. My knee

Your balls

[Mr.Bill]

25. I'm 5'4''. I will not challenge anyone. Broken ego will heal much faster than broken bones.

However, I am 71 years old, so if they threaten me I will just invite them to throw the first punch after I inform them that assault and battery to an elder is a felony in California. Probably the same in many states.

[CrispyQ]

26. Maga men will discover that when the women they care about

are away from their community where everyone knows them, they will be targets, too. Girls especially, are vulnerable.

[Jilly_in_VA]

29. The problem is more

at the middle school level, from what I'm hearing. And moms should tell their daughters to report this as a threat of sexual assault. If the school doesn't take it seriously from the girls, then the parents should go straight to the principal's office. Meanwhile, enroll your daughters in martial arts classes (Krav Maga would be good!) and maybe teach them to retort, "Your cock, my Glock!"

[Evolve Dammit]

30. There may be more that we would not want to acknowledge. It's a sickening "thing."

[Orrex]

31. That earns an immediate dick-punch.

I will happily attack any flaccid shithead I hear/see using this bullshit misogynist attack.

Haven't yet encountered it in real time, but I'm watching for it.

[GaYellowDawg]

35. i sure as hell WILL.

As a white male, I recognize that it's particularly important for me to speak up.

[irisblue]

39. Gisele Pelicot google her and weep

A lot of men will rape and use a woman's body if the chance is there

[Dem4life1234]

41. American women had one job

Not enough women showed up. Well, black women did, at least.

[ForgedCrank]

42. Sounds like an excellent

way to get my ass kicked.
I believe women can handle themselves without my intervention.
