The 10 Most Ridiculous Things Old White Men Have Proposed About Women And Vaginas
3) Georgia state Representative Terry England used an Old McDonald analogy when discussing whether a woman should have to carry to term and deliver a stillborn fetus, rather than have an abortion.
“Life gives us many experiences…I’ve had the experience of delivering calves, dead and alive. Delivering pigs, dead or alive. It breaks our hearts to see those animals not make it.”
But farm animals don’t get abortions, so women shouldn’t either, right? Yes, that makes perfect sense. England then shared something a chicken farmer told him: “You tell those folks down there that when they quit killing babies, they can have every chicken I’ve got.” I’m still not sure why a “salt-of-the-earth” chicken farmer should be making decisions on what goes on inside a woman’s body, or why it should mean anything to a room of mostly male legislators, unless “women : chicken :: men : chicken farmers.” Puke.
