The Republican women on CNN

Saying "boys will be boys".

They needed to be asked if a teenage boy attempted to rape their son would that be okay?

When they object then the obvious follow-up question for them would be then why is it okay if it happens to your daughter?

I'm spreading the meme that all of these Republican women who are complicit with the patriarchy should be dubbed "Serena Joy", after the character in The Handmaid's Tale.
