will be day care and schools won't accept children from single parent or same sex households, Dr's, hospitals and insurance plans will be able to legally refuse treatment of them and employers will refuse to hire women at all. OK has repeatedly drafted legislation against medical care for LGBTQ and their children and in a "right to work" state, they don't have to follow any hiring/firing rules.

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.


Nor will it be rescinded from the Constitution.

335,902,959 Current population
165,826,373 Current male population (49.4%)
170,076,587 Current female population (50.6%)

The cards have been stacked in the men's favor since the founding of our nation...
and they are the minority.

Men will not hold themselves accountable for the countless wrongs done to generations...

It's time we women right this ship...
