28. The only part of your post that made any sense was the idea of women
having choices, You are right, women have always had choices. The problem is that the choices that they have had were not legal. When I was a young woman, abortion was illegal. The choices one had were these: try to preform your own abortion and wither and bleed to death or be maimed for life, get some money and go to some back alley Dr. and hope for the best, be rich and have your family physician preform a D&C (I saw lots of those when I was a student in the path lab at Baylor in Dallas. It took me about 20 years to figure out what those were and why there were so many of them.). You seem to think that I do not know what a misogynist is. All women know and see the misogyny that is around them. I was using my good-girl, southern manners and trying to give your candidate, Watts, the benefit of the doubt and call him anti-woman on just the one issue of reproductive rights and not condemn him to the whole spectrum of women-hating that misogyny involves. Perhaps, I was wrong.
