36. False equivalence from you

To FIGHT BACK is not wrong - but you are saying it is.

You are obviously not a female and don't know what it's like to see a bunch of withered limp dick men trying to tell you what health care decisions you can make.

You would do well to back away on this because you, obviously, have NO IDEA what this situation is like for women who have had to fight for centuries for rights that males took as their god-given privilege.

You're fighting the wrong fight here.
