Climate Change War on Women
On Wednesday, California Democrat Barbara Lee proposed a resolution in the House of Representatives that claims women will eventually be forced into prostitution in order to obtain life-sustaining food and water for their families.
Lee introduced House Concurrent Resolution 29, warning that women will be forced into “transactional sex” to get enough food and clean water — all because global warming will create “conflict and instability” in the world.
“Women will disproportionately face harmful impacts from climate change,” Lee’s resolution reads. It continues claiming, “Food insecure women with limited socioeconomic resources may be vulnerable to situations such as sex work, transactional sex, and early marriage that put them at risk for HIV, STIs, unplanned pregnancy, and poor reproductive health.”
Lee’s document goes on to urge Congress to agree on the “disparate impacts of climate change on women,” and goes on to demand that Congress use “gender-sensitive frameworks in developing policies to address climate change.”
Lee also charges that women, who are “often underrepresented in the development and formulation of policy regarding adaptation to climate change,” are doubtless in the best position to offer policy ideas.

You've got to be kidding me! Please tell me this didn't really happen. Did all women politicians in California eat too many lead paint chips? As hard as it is to take any politician serious, this idiot comes around and says something like this. I can't tell if it is supposed to be a fear tactic or just another brain damaged individual doing their best to overdose on medicinal marijuana.
Okay, enough of that. Can someone explain to me what happened in order for the weather to have a war on women? Obviously this is Republican weather, right?

...yes, but what will they be charging?
As long as it's within my budget, I'll be more than happy to pay into that type of transactional system.
Hey, if it helps the economy, I'm all for it and will support the efforts of women everywhere, that are trying to get a'head.
But seriously... where on earth do they find these loonies? Does this woman seriously think that her doom & gloom, post female-apocalyptic view of life, will actually become reality?
