They are talking about getting women more involved in governing instead of taking a back seat to men who hold the majority of power in the govt. It doesn't suggest its a single party issue and that women should be more assertive about what they want regardless of political party. They are misrepresented and can change that.

Yeah. Sure. All the other stuff like THE TITLE, PELOSI, and the WRAP-UP STATEMENT totes has nothing to do with the election tomorrow and Democrats.

You must have a pretty low opinion of women if you "interpreted" the article as a cry for women to withhold sex in order to get men to vote democrat. Normal people would read it as an attempt to show how sometimes there is a gap in the power dynamic between men and women, women taking a reluctant back seat in many areas sex, politics, etc. As a normal person, I read it as a call for women to stop taking a secondary, obligatory, service providing role in their lives and to actually take on an equal role with men in perusing what they want rather than constantly being on the giving end and just accepting the status quo:
"It's time for a revolution. At the polls, and in the bedroom. And in our understanding of who women are, sexually and otherwise. Given the tight interweaving of economic and political power with sexual entitlement, female sexual autonomy has never been more urgent, and women's sexual pleasure has never been more political. Let's consider what it might mean to go on a sex strike of sorts -- to get what we want, rather than give what we think we owe others.....Resetting the balance so women no longer provide service sex is not in itself a comprehensive answer to gendered inequalities, of course. But making sex female-focused and female-pleasure-centric could begin to force other shifts in thinking in important ways. When we cease to consider what women like and want as foreplay and reframe it as the main event, for example, we begin to challenge, from the most intimate and private and emotionally powerful place, a long-accepted, deeply believed but nearly invisible world view, and make an impossible-to-miss statement about who and what counts."
You guys are really only seeing what you want to see and you seem to have pretty shallow views of women but, hey, feel free to point out where incel dog got it right when he posted "This lady argues women should go on a sex strike if their "men" don't vote for Democrats" since all you guys seem to be capable of pointing out is how you interpreted the article.
