Pro-aborts accuse us of being misogynist, yet they defend real misogynists like Dylan Mulvaney.

As a child, I was raised to believe that misogyny is defined as "hatred or disrespect of women". My desire to ban abortion is motivated to protect fetal rights, not to keep women powerless or in the kitchen.

Dylan Mulvaney on the other hand, is pro-choice, but has reduced women to a caricature of a 1950's trad-wife. This is no different from a 1920's minstrel show. Although Dylan Mulvaney can say that she doesn't hate women, we can say that she is a misogynist because her idea of femininity is rooted in a disrespect for femininity. Because of this, I am tempted to say that pro-aborts are the real misogynists for thinking that behavior is okay.

Feminists will defend her, but will also demonize minstrel shows and pro-lifers. Can't we all just admit that neither Republicans nor Democrats (not even feminists) actually prioritize women's interests at all times? They only care about women's well-being when it intersects with their politics.

Lupita Tovar, the lead actress of Mexico's first sound film (from 1932) lived long enough to see Donald Trump get elected in 2016.

This might be the first post about her.

The number of rapes in the Republic of Ireland reported to the Gardai from 1955-2020 [OC]

Notes:

This chart was created using Google Sheets.

From 1955 to 1992, the Gardai annual reports consistently list the number of reported rapes every year. Beginning in 1993, those reports begin to only list rapes of females, which I did not include. I could not locate gardai statistics on the total number of rapes reported to the Gardai until 2004 (found in another document).
