<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/meghan-markle">Meghan Markle</a> is going all-in for <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/abortion">abortion</a> these days, which includes one of her product endorsements. 
The Duchess of Sussex used to be required to keep her political opinions quiet, but ever since she stepped back as a senior working royal, Markle has been voicing her feminist views. Now, <a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/07/07/meghan-markles-awe-inspired-necklace-supports-planned-parenthood">Page Six</a> reported that the brand Awe Inspired introduced a “Woman Power” necklace, which costs between $140-$150. One hundred percent of the proceeds for the necklace and the rest of the Ruth Bader Ginsburg collection from Awe Inspired will <a href="https://aweinspired.com/collections/ruth-bader-ginsburg-collection?sscid=71k6_7jis2&amp;utm_source=ShareASale&amp;utm_medium=Affiliate&amp;utm_campaign=314743">benefit</a> Planned Parenthood.
Markle was first spotted wearing the necklace, which features a Venus symbol incorporated with a power fist, at the 2021 VAX Live event, a global broadcast special celebrating COVID-19 vaccines. 
The necklace isn’t new but the initiative to support abortion is a reaction to the historic overturning of Roe v. Wade on June 24. 
“We are proud to honor Ruth Bader Ginsburg, her championing of civil liberties, and all the people she has inspired to never stop persisting in the face of adversity,” <a href="https://aweinspired.com/collections/ruth-bader-ginsburg-collection">a statement</a> on the brand’s website says. They say these donations will help them “continue the fight.”
The royal has already expressed her support for abortion during a previous interview.
“We have to band together and not wallow,” Markle said while speaking with Gloria Steinem and Jessica Yellin for <a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/gloria-steinem-duchess-of-sussex-jessica-yellin-roe-v-wade">Vogue</a> just after the Supreme Court decision was handed down. “What happens with our bodies is so deeply personal, which can also lead to silence and stigma, even though so many of us deal with personal health crises.”
“I know what miscarrying feels like, which I’ve talked about publicly,” the Duchess continued. “The more that we normalize conversation about the things that affect our lives and bodies, the more people are going to understand how necessary it is to have protections in place.”
The Duchess seemingly equated miscarriage with abortion, which many celebrities and left-wing news outlets have been doing ever since Roe was overturned. Recording artist Halsey said, “my abortion saved my life” while referencing a procedure she had after experiencing a miscarriage, The Daily Wire originally <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/my-abortion-saved-my-life-singer-halsey-pens-essay-against-roe-reversal-shares-personal-experience">reported</a>. 
Markle isn’t the only celebrity wearing jewelry from Awe Inspired. Demi Lovato, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Whitney Cummings, Becky G, Megan Rapinoe, and Tess Holiday all wore items from the RBG collection, per Page Six.
Madonna, Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Miley Cyrus, Sarah Jessica Parker, Halle Berry, and Hilary Duff all support the Awe Inspired brand as well, per their <a href="https://aweinspired.com/pages/celebrities-in-awe">website</a>.

The new menstruation-themed <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/documentary">documentary</a> “Periodical” will include stories from “activists, authors, journalists and doctors, with notable names including Gloria Steinem, soccer star Megan Rapinoe, actress Ashley Greene, and “Pen15” star Anna Konkle,” according to <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/msnbc-period-documentary-periodical-1235159943/">The Hollywood Reporter</a>.
The project’s description says, “Periodical covers everything from the people who use their period blood for facials and ‘free bleed’ while running marathons, to the ones who want to forget it exists. The film uncovers the shocking truths, challenges taboos and celebrates the untapped potential of this nutrient-dense blood.”
Lina Lyte Plioplyte is directing the documentary, the publication noted, with Pegah Farahmand producing and Kourtney Gleason co-producing. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/msnbc">MSNBC</a>’s Rashida Jones and Amanda Spain will serve as executive producers along with XTR’s Kathryn Everett, Kathleen Flood, and Justin Lacob.
“For Periodical, I decided to look at <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/period-crunch-a-uterus-shaped-cereal-aims-to-bring-menstruation-conversations-to-breakfast">menstruation</a> through the lens of curiosity instead of stigma, focusing on people in the field who are treating periods as a valuable asset, not a curse,” Plioplyte told THR. “My first documentary looked at aging as a celebration and coincided with a pro-aging movement. Now is the time to celebrate the menstruating bodies, and acknowledge the movement to reclaim and empower those with periods.”
Spain noted how women’s bodies have become a political issue. 
“One of the most political things in the United States and the world is the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/collections/what-is-a-woman">female body</a>,” Spain told the publication. “Our bodily functions are the subject of great debate. Lina Plioplyte takes that reality and turns it on its head with ‘Periodical.’” 
Flood agreed, saying, “Too many institutions and societal forces have told us for centuries that periods are dirty and taboo, and this documentary exposes that fallacy while bringing light to what’s beautiful and mysterious about the human body.”
Periods have been a hot topic in political circles for a while. Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY) came under fire for referring to biological women as “menstruating people.” 
“Not just women! Trans men &amp; non-binary people can also menstruate. Some women also *don’t* menstruate for many reasons, including surviving cancer that required a hysterectomy. GOP mad at this are protecting the patriarchal idea that women are most valuable as uterus holders,” AOC wrote in response to a Daily Mail article, The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/aoc-lashes-out-over-coverage-of-her-menstruating-people-remark-gop-view-women-as-uterus-holders">reported</a>. “Trans, two-spirit, and non-binary people have always existed and will always exist. People can stay mad about that if they want, or they can grow up.”
“Periodical” will air on MSNBC in 2023 before it’s released to Peacock. The publication noted how the film is being made by MSNBC films in conjunction with XTR.

The Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle is now palling around with hardcore feminist radicals like Gloria Steinem, according to recent reports from entertainment media.
According to the staunch abortion activist Steinem, Markle has been cold-calling voters to get them to show up to the polls this November. Speaking with <a class="external-link" href="https://www.accessonline.com/videos/gloria-steinem-challenges-meghan-markle-princess-stereotype-she-is-herself-smart-authentic" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-event-click="{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https://www.accessonline.com/videos/gloria-steinem-challenges-meghan-markle-princess-stereotype-she-is-herself-smart-authentic&quot;}">Access Hollywood</a>, Steinem said that she and Meghan Markle had a little chat this past August in which they colluded to get out the vote.
&#8220;The first thing we did, and why she came to see me, was we sat at the dining room table where I am right now and cold-called voters and said ‘Hello, I’m Meg’ and ‘Hello, I’m Gloria’ and ‘Are you going to vote?’ That was her initiative.” Steinem said, as reported by <a href="https://www.vanityfair.com/style/2020/09/meghan-markle-gloria-steinem-voting-presidential-election">Vanity Fair</a>.
Steinem added that Markle defied the princess “stereotype hanging over her head” noting that she was “herself, smart, authentic, funny, [and] political.”
After stepping down as a senior member of the Royal Family, Meghan Markle immediately positioned herself as a political figure. In fact, this past summer, both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/harry-and-meghan-say-britain-must-right-past-wrong-reckon-with-colonial-past">waded into politics</a> when they called upon Britain to reckon with its colonial past during a video meeting with young people from across the British Commonwealth.
“There is no way that we can move forward unless we acknowledge the past,” Harry said with Meghan Markle at his side.
“We’re going to have to be a little uncomfortable right now because it’s only in pushing through that discomfort that we get to the other side of this,” added Markle. “It’s not just in the big moments, it’s in the quiet moments where racism and unconscious bias lies and thrives.”
“There is no turning back now, everything is coming to a head,” Harry concluded. “Solutions exist and change is happening far quicker than it ever has done before.”
Following that, Meghan Markle gave the keynote speech at the <a href="https://girlup.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Girl Up Leadership Summit </a>where she urged girls to fight against racial and gender inequality.
“I know you have already done so much and made so many people’s lives better. The moment we are living through right now asks all of us to do more,” she said. “It’s a moment where your voices, and your action, have never been more urgently needed.”
“Believing in true equality is not enough – it’s going to take more than belief; we have to work for it every day, even when it’s hard and even when it makes others feel uneasy,” she continued. “We have to speak up for ourselves and we have to speak out for others who struggle to be heard.”
After former Vice President Joe Biden selected Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) as his running-mate, Markle said she was &#8220;excited&#8221; to see the representation.
“I’m so excited to see that kind of representation,” the duchess said. “You know, for me, being biracial growing up, whether it was a doll or a person in office, you need to see someone who looks like you in some capacity. As many of us believe, you can only be what you can see. And in the absence of that, how can you aspire to something greater than what you see in your own world? I think maybe now we’re starting to break through in a different way.”

Gloria Steinem Claims She Is Cold Calling Voters With Meghan Markle

2020 Election

Where is Gloria Steinem? The ongoing Hulu drama, “Mrs. America,” prominently features the work and love life of feminist crusader, Gloria Steinem. But, Steinem has been absent from any discussion of the series that often depicts her as shallow and disloyal. She has made a career as a writer and social justice warrior. She is even co-founder of the Women’s Media Center, so why isn’t she commenting on the show’s portrayal of her part in history?
“Mrs. America” incorrectly portrays my mother, Phyllis Schlafly, as power-mad and condescending to women, but the show uses a broad-brush on Gloria Steinem too. She is depicted as superficial and self-centered. She seemingly thinks that most debates are too lowly for her to participate, so she often sends someone else in her place.
I have never met Gloria Steinem, but I believe that women seem to objectify each other far too much on the public stage. Think about how much energy was spent debating why Hillary Clinton always wore pant suits instead of skirts or dresses during the 2016 presidential election. She was running for the highest office in the land and many people, often females, had to dish about what she was wearing.
“Mrs. America” is more concerned with the hair, long nails, and eyeglasses of Gloria Steinem. She was clearly beautiful, but did that mean she was also vain? These attributes are not necessarily a package deal.
The series creator, Dahvi Waller, admitted in a <a href="https://www.kcrw.com/culture/shows/the-business/dahvi-waller-mrs-america/dahvi-waller-mrs-america-fx-hulu">recent interview</a> that she had her people reach out to Steinem about the show, so maybe she had some influence in her own portrayal. Meanwhile, Phyllis’s family, myself included, was not given any kind of information on the show and Waller has bragged that she did not want to be influenced by the children of Phyllis and Fred Schlafly.
Fictionalizing Phyllis and Gloria may make for interesting television, but it will fail to inspire the next generation of female leaders, which was the real mission these two women shared for decades – even if from different sides of the aisle. Here’s why: “Mrs. America” misses the mission these women had in their lives. While they aligned with different political parties, they were both motivated to lead in a political arena which was then, and still is today, made up predominantly of men. Both had guts and drive.
My mother was driven by her deep faith, which is not depicted at all in the series. She believed in something greater than self. She believed her life was meant to serve God, so she devoted herself to her country and her cause. Phyllis Schlafly found self-fulfillment through the compromises needed to build a successful marriage and family. I am sure Gloria has a similar drive to change the world and leave behind a better place for others. I would love to hear more about what inspires her. Sadly, we don’t see any of that heart in “Mrs. America.”
The legacy of Gloria Steinem and Phyllis Schlafly will be all of the women they inspired to put on their boxing gloves and get into the political fray. Will we see more heart in these final episodes or hear more from Gloria Steinem about what inspired her role in history? I hope so. I know how they have twisted the truth on Phyllis Schlafly, so Gloria should respond. Otherwise, the legacy of the “Mrs. America” series may just be beautiful actors in great clothes but missing the true inner strength of women.
Anne Schlafly Cori is Chairman of the <a href="https://eagleforum.org">Eagle Forum</a> and daughter of Phyllis Schlafly, the leader of the 1970s movement to defeat the Equal Rights Amendment.

ANNE SCHLAFLY: Hulu’s ‘Mrs. America’ Misrepresents Feminist Leaders; Gloria Steinem Remains Silent

Feminism

Abortion is the highest expression of feminism. It&#8217;s the only concern of feminists. Just ask the first lady how many feminists came to her defense after her son&#8217;s name was dragged through the mud on Capitol Hill. Ask Kellyanne Conway how many stood behind her when she was insulted as a terrifying killer clown on &#8220;Saturday Night Live.&#8221; Ask Juanita Broaddrick who came to her defense when she declared that the (liberal) president of the United States had raped her.
But abortion? Anyone who dares to oppose abortion is a sexist, a racist and maybe even a Christian.
You could find these attitudes in a recent article in fashion magazine Harper&#8217;s Bazaar, where legendary extremist Gloria Steinem was interviewed/celebrated by British actress and model Jameela Jamil, who stars in the NBC after-death sitcom &#8220;The Good Place.&#8221;
Back in May, Jamil caused a ruckus by tweeting like a typical feminist about her awesome abortion: &#8220;I had an abortion when I was young, and it was the best decision I have ever made. Both for me, and for the baby I didn&#8217;t want &#8230; So many children will end up in foster homes. So many lives ruined. So very cruel.&#8221;
Work your way through that equation: Abortion is the best thing that could happen to an unborn baby.
In the glossy pages of Harper&#8217;s Bazaar, Jamil was modeling and pouting in a $3,800 blazer and $300 tights under the sugary headline &#8220;Jameela Jamil Is the Feminist-in-Progress We Need Right Now.&#8221; As with her showy clothes, it&#8217;s all about her. She proclaimed, &#8220;People have abortions, sometimes a woman just wants her liberty, and we have to normalize that it&#8217;s okay just to make that choice for yourself, because your life is as important as a newborn life that doesn&#8217;t even exist yet.&#8221;
Me, me, me.
Steinem heartily agreed and turned on the pro-lifers by calling them budding authoritarians. &#8220;It took me a while to understand that the first step in every authoritarian regime is controlling reproduction, and that means controlling us,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Unless we — men and women — have power over our own bodies and voices, there is no such thing as democracy.&#8221;
To her, pro-lifers smell like Nazis. &#8220;Every authoritarian regime that I have ever read about, including Hitler&#8217;s rise to power, every regime starts with controlling reproduction and that means controlling women&#8217;s bodies,&#8221; she said.
In other words, there&#8217;s no such thing as a holocaust of tens of millions unborn babies, because they&#8217;re not counted as actual human lives and they have no human dignity. Besides, those who support life for the unborn are Nazis. George Orwell, call your office.
Jamil also told Steinem that she likes her theory that whites have &#8220;a fear that not enough white women are being born.&#8221; Steinem elaborated: &#8220;The white evangelicals are supporting Trump solely on the issue of abortion. Obviously, it has nothing to do with his lifestyle. It has to do with their racism.&#8221;
Our friend Katie Yoder wrote up all this nonsense on Townhall.com with a headline that accurately summarizes: &#8220;Gloria Steinhem and Jameela Jamil: There&#8217;s &#8216;No Democracy&#8217; Without Abortion.&#8221; Jamil responded with Hollywood sophistication, tweeting: &#8220;I SAID WHAT I F—-ING SAID and you&#8217;re clueless if you think I&#8217;m going to take it back. My life *is* more important to me than an unborn fetus&#8217; one. Suck on that.&#8221;

BOZELL & GRAHAM: Feminists Exalt The Wonder Of Abortion

Jameela Jamil

According to abortion enthusiast Gloria Steinem, pro-lifers share common cause with the mass-murdering Hitler.
Speaking on NBC&#8217;s &#8220;Today&#8221; show on Monday, the feminist Left&#8217;s beloved abortion cheerleader Gloria Steinem touted the new edition of her book, &#8220;Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions,&#8221; during which she <a href="https://www.lifenews.com/2019/02/25/gloria-steinem-compares-pro-lifers-to-nazis-he-campaigned-against-abortion-too/">compared the pro-life movement to Nazism</a>.
&#8220;It&#8217;s wonderful to be here, but I don&#8217;t know if I can live up to myself,&#8221; Steinem said following her fawning introduction by the &#8220;Today&#8221; hosts.
&#8220;Our next guest is a trailblazer in so many ways,&#8221; co-host Dylan Dreyer said of Steinem. Co-host Al Roker also hailed: &#8220;Gloria Steinem is a best-selling writer, journalist, activist, and feminine icon.&#8221;
When asked by the hosts what she hoped a new generation of readers would take from the current edition of her book, Steinem recalled <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Nazi-Connection-Gloria-Steinem/dp/153669293X" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the essay she penned in 1980</a> comparing the GOP platform to Hitler&#8217;s:
<blockquote>
Well, the new generation of reader is instructing me by saying that these essays are still relevant &#8230;. on a more serious note, to put it mildly, is why Hitler was actually elected, and he was elected and he campaigned against abortion. I mean, that was &#8212; he padlocked the family planning clinics. Okay, so that is still relevant in the terms of the right wing. So there were very few things, actually, that I had to take out.
</blockquote>
To compare Hitler to the pro-life movement is absurd on its face, given that he promoted abortion and sterilization<a href="https://www.academia.edu/1378119/Abortion_and_Womens_Legal_Personhood_in_Germany_A_Contribution_to_the_Feminist_Theory_of_the_State"> as a population control mechanism for non-Aryans</a>, which means Hitler had rather a selective regard for unborn children, favoring them only if they advanced his white supremacist views. He certainly did not preach the notion that life begins at conception and all children are made in the image and likeness of God.
Later in the segment, Al Roker asked Steinem if she believes feminism has changed ever since she became a &#8220;trail-blazer&#8221; in the 1960s.
&#8220;It really hasn&#8217;t. I think many more people understand that it doesn&#8217;t mean being anti-male &#8230; if you just go to the dictionary, you&#8217;ll feel better, okay? Because it just says, you know, a belief in the full social economic, political equality of women,&#8221; she said.

<blockquote>
9:23 AM ET
DYLAN DREYER: Welcome back, our next guest is a trailblazer in so many ways.
AL ROKER: Gloria Steinem is a best-selling writer, journalist, activist, and feminine icon.
CRAIG MELVIN: For more than five decades she has been at the forefront of the fight for equality.
MELVIN [TAPED REPORT]: Gloria Steinem is one of the most well-known feminist icons of our time.
GLORIA STEINEM: This is no simple reform. It really is a revolution.
MELVIN: For the past 50 years, the best-selling author, journalist, speaker and activist has established herself as a leader in the women&#8217;s movement.
(&#8230;)
MELVIN: Over the years, Steinem became more involved in activism speaking out and becoming a staunch advocate for women&#8217;s equality.
STEINEM: I stand here not only for the Equal Rights Amendment, but in the names of all the women in this country who struggle with two jobs when men have one.
MELVIN: Steinem also helped create New York Magazine and later on co-founded Ms. Magazine, the first magazine to bring feminist issues into the mainstream.
STEINEM: We&#8217;re not just a magazine. We&#8217;re a whole social movement.
MELVIN: Throughout her life, Steinem has been honored with several awards. Today, Steinem&#8217;s life is playing out in a new off-Broadway play called, Gloria: A Life.
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN [ACTRESS PLAYING STEINEM]: The Constitution does not begin with &#8220;I, the President,&#8221; it begins with, &#8220;We, the people.&#8221;
MELVIN: And at 84 years old, Gloria Steinem does not appear to be slowing down, continuing her fight for equality.
The third edition of Gloria Steinem&#8217;s book of essays, Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions, is out now. Gloria Steinem, so good to have you in the studio.
STEINEM: It&#8217;s wonderful to be here, but I don&#8217;t know if I can live up to myself. [Laughter]
MELVIN: I think you can.
DREYER: I could watch a whole movie on that.
MELVIN: So the third edition is out, first edition came out in 1983, if I remember correctly. What do you want this new generation of reader to take away?
STEINEM: Well, the new generation of reader is instructing me by saying that these essays are still relevant, which I wouldn&#8217;t have known when I was writing them, right? So one of them, If Men Could Menstruate, a great parody about &#8211;
DREYER: Which is so funny. [Laughter]
STEINEM: Is out there on campuses, you know, being read and so on. Another, on a more serious note, to put it mildly, is why Hitler was actually elected, and he was elected and he campaigned against abortion. I mean, that was &#8211; he padlocked the family planning clinics. Okay, so that is still relevant in the terms of the right wing. So there were very few things, actually, that I had to take out.
DREYER: Can I just read a line from, If Men Could Menstruate, because it is &#8211; it&#8217;s just so funny. Because you write, &#8220;Menstruation would become an enviable boast-worthy masculine event. Statistical surveys would show that men did better in sports and won more Olympic medals during their periods.&#8221; [Laughter] I mean, if you&#8217;re not familiar with these essays you have to read them, because just the way you write talks about these topics but makes them enjoyable no matter how heavy they are.
(&#8230;)
ROKER: You know, in the time since you&#8217;ve written this book, now in 2019, has the definition of feminism changed or has it splintered?
STEINEM: No, it really hasn&#8217;t. I think many more people understand that it doesn&#8217;t mean being anti-male. On the contrary, we chose the word feminism because men can be feminists too, and many more women identify with that now. But if you just go to the dictionary, you&#8217;ll feel better, okay? Because it just says, you know, a belief in the full social economic, political equality of women.
MELVIN: Some have tried to pervert the term, though, feminism.
STEINEM: Yeah, no, I&#8217;ve been called a &#8220;femi-Nazi&#8221; by various people on &#8211; you know, we won&#8217;t name.
MELVIN: Let&#8217;s not name names. One of the things I&#8217;ve always found interesting, you have an interesting theory, perhaps, as to why we haven&#8217;t seen a female president just yet and why women continue to be paid less than their male counter parts in most professions, and it stems from how we view women from birth as mothers in the home. Talk to us a little bit about that.
STEINEM: Well, I think the salary thing is really flat out profit, I think, motive, and racism and sexism, you know. That&#8217;s the cheap labor, you know, historically on which this country has operated.
But I do think that the fact that we are still raised primarily by women makes us associate female authority with childhood. We, as women, may have our own corrective experience, but for many men, they really feel regressed to childhood. I mean, otherwise why did people say about &#8211; grown-up men I know who are my friends said things on television like, &#8220;I cross my legs whenever I see Hillary Clinton. She reminds me of my first wife outside alimony.&#8221; I mean, it made absolutely no sense, but once you realize that they haven&#8217;t seen an authoritative woman since they were eight, you know, they feel regressed.
MELVIN: We can view &#8211;
STEINEM: Regressed literally.
MELVIN: We can view women in power inside the home, but outside the home it becomes &#8211;
STEINEM: It&#8217;s still difficult, which is why the answer, the ultimate answer to democracy is men raising children as much as women do. Until men are equal in the home, it&#8217;s gonna be very iffy and spotty, you know, for women to be an authority outside the home.
MELVIN: Gloria Steinem thank you so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Come back anytime.
STEINEM: Thank you, thank you.

Gloria Steinem: ‘Hitler Campaigned Against Abortion’ Too

Adolf Hitler

Well, she finally did it. Feminist Lutheran &#8220;pastor&#8221; <a href="https://www.theblaze.com/news/2013/11/04/tatted-up-foul-mouthed-pastor-takes-a-radically-different-approach-to-teaching-scripture">Nadia Bolz-Weber</a> has given abortion propagandist Gloria Steinem the vagina sculpture she made of Christian purity rings last year, reports <a href="https://www.theblaze.com/news/2019/02/18/liberal-feminst-pastor-vagina-sculpture/amp?__twitter_impression=true">The Blaze</a>.
Last November, the founding pastor of Denver&#8217;s House for All Sinners and Saints &#8212; who once described herself to <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/bolz-webers-liberal-foulmouthed-articulation-of-christianity-speaks-to-fed-up-believers/2013/11/03/7139dc24-3cd3-11e3-a94f-b58017bfee6c_story.html">The Washington Post</a> as a &#8220;tatted-up, foul-mouthed&#8221; leader of a &#8220;new, muscular form of liberal Christianity&#8221; &#8212; announced on <a href="https://twitter.com/Sarcasticluther/status/1067068789915668480">Twitter</a> her &#8220;massive art project&#8221; to create a golden idol to female genitalia in protest of evangelical purity.
&#8220;Beginning November 12th, until December 17th, you&#8217;ll have the opportunity to send in your purity rings to be melted down and recast into a golden vagina,&#8221; she explained on her website about her plans to create her feminist idol. &#8220;This sculpture will be unveiled at the 2019 Makers Conference.&#8221;
Women who sent Bolz-Weber their purity rings were given a &#8220;certificate of Impurity as well as a SHAMELESS, impurity ring.&#8221; Evangelicals sometimes refer to such purity rings as &#8220;promise&#8221; or &#8220;chastity&#8221; rings. They are typically given to young girls as a sign of promise to abstain from pre-marital sex.
When Bolz-Weber received enough rings, she had to hire a female welder to create the vagina statue after five men refused to make it. Upon presenting the statue to Steinem at the 2019 Makers conference, the feminist pastor denounced the purity rings as a &#8220;footnote&#8221; in a vast history.
&#8220;Every single thing and person that seemed so powerful as to feel inescapable, I name them, and then I just go &#8216;footnote,'&#8221; Bolz-Weber said. &#8220;I mean, seriously &#8212; Pontius Pilate? He&#8217;s a footnote. Your bully from middle school? Footnote. Your depression? Footnote. Your sh*tty boss? Footnote. All those things are very real, and the harm that they have on us and the world is also real.&#8221;
&#8220;But to me, the whole point of having faith is that it allows us to believe in a bigger story than the one we tell ourselves,&#8221; she added. &#8220;Those purity rings are a footnote.&#8221;

Bolz-Weber <a href="https://www.makers.com/videos/5a7a479cc214e36a600d66c6">explained</a> to HuffPost at the 2018 Makers Conference her motivation to &#8220;take down&#8221; the evangelical purity culture.
&#8220;This thing about women that the church has tried to hide and control and that is a canvas on which other people can write their own righteousness &#8213; it&#8217;s actually ours,&#8221; Bolz-Weber said. &#8220;This part of me is mine and I get to determine what is good for it and if it&#8217;s beautiful and how I use it in the world.&#8221;

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has developed generally liberal views on abortion, homosexuality and universalism. Bolz-Weber <a href="https://yaledailynews.com/blog/2018/02/02/bolz-weber-calls-for-new-christian-ethic/">said</a> her denomination has largely supported her.
According to The Christian Post, the modern purity movement among evangelicals began in the 1990s and 2000s partly because of Joshua Harris&#8217; 1997 book &#8220;I Kissed Dating Goodbye,&#8221; in which he suggested that dating should only be for preparing for marriage. Harris has since apologized for that viewpoint, saying he presented an unhealthy view of recreational dating.
&#8220;I didn&#8217;t leave room for the idea that dating could be a healthy way of learning what you&#8217;re looking for in a long-term relationship, that it could be a part of growing personally,&#8221; he admitted. &#8220;I gave the impression that there was one formula that you could follow, and if you followed that, you&#8217;d be happily married, God would bless you, and you&#8217;d have a great sex life and marriage. Obviously, the real world doesn&#8217;t work that way.&#8221;

Abortion advocate Gloria Steinem is deeply pleased by the amount of feminist activism that has permeated the tenure of Donald Trump&#8217;s presidency.
Speaking with the clothing company <a data-beacon="{&quot;p&quot;:{&quot;lnid&quot;:&quot;Everlane&quot;,&quot;mpid&quot;:3,&quot;plid&quot;:&quot;https://www.everlane.com/about&quot;}}" data-beacon-parsed="true" data-rapid-parsed="slk" data-rapid_p="4" data-v9y="1" data-ylk="subsec:paragraph;cpos:2;elm:context_link;itc:0" href="https://www.everlane.com/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Everlane</a> for their new &#8220;<a data-beacon="{&quot;p&quot;:{&quot;lnid&quot;:&quot;Human Heroes&quot;,&quot;mpid&quot;:7,&quot;plid&quot;:&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSigEZHK-mg&quot;}}" data-beacon-parsed="true" data-rapid-parsed="slk" data-rapid_p="8" data-v9y="1" data-ylk="subsec:paragraph;cpos:3;elm:context_link;itc:0" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSigEZHK-mg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Human Heroes</a>&#8221; video series, Steinem said that she has &#8220;never seen this much activism&#8221; in her life regarding several feminist issues. &#8220;It&#8217;s way, way more than anything I&#8217;ve ever seen,&#8221; said the 84-year-old Steinem.
Launching Monday, the video series highlights people who &#8220;have dedicated their lives to empowering their communities and making a difference,&#8221; according to <a data-beacon="{&quot;p&quot;:{&quot;lnid&quot;:&quot;Glamour&quot;,&quot;mpid&quot;:8,&quot;plid&quot;:&quot;https://www.glamour.com/story/everlane-human-heroes-video-series-gloria-steinem&quot;}}" data-beacon-parsed="true" data-rapid-parsed="slk" data-rapid_p="9" data-v9y="1" data-ylk="subsec:paragraph;cpos:3;elm:context_link;itc:0" href="https://www.glamour.com/story/everlane-human-heroes-video-series-gloria-steinem" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Glamour</a>. Alex Spunt, head of creative at Everlane, said the series promotes a &#8220;radical transparency.&#8221;
&#8220;Defending human rights has been core to our mission of Radical Transparency from the very beginning,&#8221; Spunt said. &#8220;The Human Heroes series is our way of highlighting individuals who fight for those rights every single day &#8213; and Gloria Steinem is the ultimate Human Hero. For over 50 years she&#8217;s fought on behalf of disempowered and disenfranchised women all over the globe and even now, at 84 years old, she still uses her voice to educate and inspire every day.&#8221;
In the video, Steinem credited the feminist wave of the 1960&#8217;s for her becoming a writer, a profession she started at New York Magazine in 1968.
&#8220;I always wanted to be a writer but thanks to the women&#8217;s movement especially my life came together because I realized that as a writer I could make visible that which had been invisible,&#8221; she said.
Steinem says she draws strength from the wave of new young feminists, the kind who believe that Vice President Mike Pence is working in tandem with religious zealots to deliver an apocalypse of &#8220;Handmaid&#8217;s Tale&#8221;-level proportions, &#8220;It&#8217;s a great trade. We&#8217;re better together, right?&#8221; she said.
Gloria Steinem&#8217;s comments echo the spirit of former Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards, who recently said that the Trump administration is &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/29827/cecile-richards-trump-admin-worst-women-ive-seen-paul-bois">the worst for women</a>&#8221; that she&#8217;s ever seen.

Gloria Steinem: ‘I’ve Never Seen This Much Activism In My Life’

On Monday, abortion champion Gloria Steinem <a href="http://www.lifenews.com/2018/02/12/gloria-steinem-tries-to-save-abortion-clinic-ordered-closed-for-breaking-the-law/">launched a public campaign</a> to keep open an abortion clinic in her hometown of Toledo &#8212; a clinic that had been closed for breaking the law.
Last week, the Ohio Supreme Court <a href="http://www.courtnewsohio.gov/cases/2018/SCO/0206/161348.asp#.WoL4462ZORv">allowed</a> the revocation of the operating license of Capital Care Network of Toledo, ruling that the clinic had violated the law requiring all ambulatory surgical facilities to have written hospital transfer agreements with local hospitals to enable emergency treatment. The court ruled that the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) could revoke the clinic&#8217;s operating license.
In 2013, the Ohio General Assembly enacted <a href="http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/3702.303">R.C. 3702.303(A)</a>, which codified the ODH transfer rule from 1986. The 2013 action stated that a written transfer agreement be &#8220;with a local hospital that specifies an effective procedure for the safe and immediate transfer of patients from the facility to the hospital when medical care beyond the care that can be provided &#8230;&#8221; Capital Care had a transfer agreement with the University of Toledo Medical Center until 2013, when the Medical Center declined to renew the agreement.
The loss of that agreement prompted Capital Care to establish an agreement with the University of Michigan Health System in 2014, but ODH ruled that the Medical Center&#8217;s location in Ann Arbor, Michigan, was too far away for emergency treatment.
A department hearing examiner ruled that Capital Care violated R.C. 3702.303(A) because its transfer agreement was not with a local hospital. ODH then revoked the license of the clinic.
But on Monday, Steinem <a href="http://www.ohiohouse.gov/teresa-fedor">released a statement</a> through the office of state Rep. Teresa Fedor, a Toledo Democrat, reading;
<blockquote>
We must not allow a political regulatory scheme to close Toledo&#8217;s remaining abortion clinic. Its absence would not diminish the number of abortions but would increase the injury and death of women in my home city and state. Democracy begins with each person&#8217;s control of his or her own body. Without reproductive freedom, there is no democracy for America women.&#8221;
</blockquote>
Steinem wanted ProMedica and St. Luke&#8217;s Hospital to sign a transfer agreement with Capital Care, adding, &#8220;Ohio hospitals must not allow themselves to be used by politicians to hurt women&#8217;s health.&#8221;

Gloria Steinem Launches Campaign To Save Abortion Clinic Closed For Breaking The Law

We already knew feminist exemplar Gloria Steinem knew little about how to do morality, but who would have thought she knew little about how to do math? According to the famed abortion enthusiast, President Trump lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton by as many as 10 million votes, roughly 7 million votes over the actual total.
Speaking at the Massachusetts Conference for Women last Wednesday, Steinem said she will never call Trump &#8220;president&#8221; &#8212; preferring instead to call him the &#8220;harasser-in-chief&#8221; because he &#8220;lost&#8221; last year&#8217;s general election by &#8220;10 million votes.&#8221;
According to <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/tom-blumer/2017/12/10/press-virtually-ignores-gloria-steinems-claim-trump-lost-10-million">Newsbusters</a>, Steinem&#8217;s absurd calculations uttered before crowds of conspiratorial feminists has been largely ignored by the MSM.
&#8220;In one noteworthy instance, the Associated Press either ignored the obviously noteworthy &#8217;10 million votes&#8217; claim or deleted it in a subsequent revision to an earlier report,&#8221; reports Newsbusters. &#8220;Steinem&#8217;s &#8217;10 million votes&#8217; remark has been reported at <a href="https://www.bustle.com/p/gloria-steinem-calls-trump-the-harasser-in-chief-wont-even-say-the-word-president-7431864">Bustle.com</a> and <a href="https://www.necn.com/news/new-england/Gloria-Steinem-Addresses-Massachusetts-Conference-for-Women-462449883.html">New England Cable News</a>, and has been sharply criticized by Matt Vespa <a href="https://townhall.com/tipsheet/mattvespa/2017/12/09/gloria-steinem-trump-is-not-the-president-n2420222">at Townhall.com</a> on Saturday. That&#8217;s it.&#8221;
So how did Steinem approach that farce of a number? In a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/GloriaSteinem/posts/10154675918187854">mid-August Facebook post</a>, this year, she said the following:
<blockquote>
Trump lost by 10 million votes &#8212; 3 for Hillary + 7 for other candidates. He&#8217;s in the White House because of the Electoral College; a creation of slave states giving white male voters power by number of slaves. Trump&#8217;s one value is shocking us into learning and talking about our divisions of race, sex, class, schooling, incarceration and daily life. We are Woke! Use it!
</blockquote>

The underlying illogic to this bizarre rant is that presidential candidates must win a popular vote majority. Still, on that logic, she fails. As the graph shows, Hillary &#8220;lost&#8221; in 2016 by 4.8 million votes when totaled up against the other candidates:

Gloria Steinem Ridiculously Claims Trump Lost By 10 Million Votes

If only millions more women had aborted their children we wouldn&#8217;t have to worry about &#8220;climate change,&#8221; according to abortion icon Gloria Steinem. Steinem, 83, gave an<a href="http://www.refinery29.com/2017/05/153643/gloria-steinem-exclusive-interview-create-cultivate-conference"> interview</a> in which she hilariously argued that climate change is a &#8220;feminist issue&#8221; because of world overpopulation, thus the overwhelming need to kill babies.
Steinem was asked, &#8220;People argue that climate change and other issues are also feminist issues. What do we lose by broadening the meaning of the term?&#8221;
Her addled response:
<blockquote>
Are you kidding me? Listen, what causes climate deprivation is population. If we had not been systematically forcing women to have children they don&#8217;t want or can&#8217;t care for over the 500 years of patriarchy, we wouldn&#8217;t have the climate problems that we have. That&#8217;s the fundamental cause of climate change. Even if the Vatican doesn&#8217;t tell us that. In addition to that, because women are the major agricultural workers in the world, and also the carriers of water and the feeders of families and so on, it&#8217;s a disproportionate burden.
</blockquote>
Steinem, of course, was a <a href="http://www.theblaze.com/news/2012/04/19/i-had-an-abortion-shirt-sales-stir-controversy-at-university-of-north-carolina-wilmington/">champion</a> of the T-Shirt emblazoned with &#8220;I had an abortion&#8221; on it; she <a href="http://www.alternet.org/story/147478/feminism_is_alive_and_well_..._even_sarah_palin_wants_to_be_one/?page=entire">once said</a>, &#8220;You can&#8217;t be a feminist who says that other women can&#8217;t and criminalizes abortion. 1 in 3 American women needs an abortion at some time in her life &#8230;&#8221; In 2015, discussing an abortion she had had as a young woman, she <a href="http://www.lifenews.com/2015/11/04/gloria-steinem-killing-my-baby-in-abortion-allowed-me-to-live-my-life/">stated</a>, &#8220;It gave me my life. I mean, I wouldn&#8217;t have been able to live my life otherwise.&#8221;

EVIL IDIOCY: Abortion Icon Gloria Steinem: Abortion Necessary To Combat Climate Change

Climate Change

Terrible, sexist, anti-woman Fox News is being praised (begrudgingly so, I&#8217;d imagine) for having the best gender parity in news media. 
The Women&#8217;s Media Center, a women&#8217;s group founded by radical feminists like Gloria Steinem and Jane Fonda, found in their annual &#8220;Divided&#8221; report that Fox News&#8217; website &#8220;achieves the best gender ratio&#8217; of the major news websites they analyzed, with 50.1 percent of bylines being men and 49.9 percent women,'&#8221; as <a href="http://thehill.com/media/325378-womens-group-report-fox-news-website-best-for-gender-parity">noted</a> by The Hill. 
Of the media sites studied in the report, men made up an average of 53.9 percent of all bylines. 
Taking second to Fox News was The Huffington Post, with 50.8 percent of their bylines being male. 
When it came to broadcast news, however, the gender gap was enormous, finding an average of 74.8 percent of all reports by men.
&#8220;ABC World News Tonight&#8221; came in dead last with a dismal 11.8 percent of female reporting. 
The greatest gender parity was found during &#8220;PBS News Hour,&#8221; showing 45 percent of their reporting from females. 
Men also dominated newspaper bylines: 
<blockquote>
Men represented 61.9 percent of bylines in the ten major newspapers studied. The San Jose Mercury News fared best in the category, with 44.3 percent of bylines being women, while the New York Daily News came in last with just 24 percent of bylines being women.
</blockquote>
&#8220;The major cable news networks of Fox News, CNN and MSNBC were not included in the broadcast analysis of the study,&#8221; notes The Hill. 
&#8220;It&#8217;s deeply disheartening to see the regression in evening broadcast news at the three major networks,&#8221; said Women&#8217;s Media Center President Julie Burton.
&#8220;Who tells the story is as important as what the story is. Our research continues to show that, overwhelmingly, it is men who are telling the story,&#8221; she added.
