Women's bodies are not the possessions of men, to do with as they please. No one's body is the possession of anyone else. It's NO until someone says clearly and definitively yes. There is no hazy, blurry area. No means no.

ICYMI IN Sens Young & Banks voted for your student athlete daughter to have her vagina "inspected" to make sure she's a "biological female." Using trans athletes as an excuse to molest our girls is still molestation. You okay with this? www.young.senate.gov www.banks.senate.gov
