Florida bill would ban young girls from discussing periods in school

[themaguffin]

The FL OP is so fucked up. How nice that this POS is "amenable" to amendments. WTF.

The GOP lawmaker representing Ocala, Fla., later clarified that it “would not be the intent” of the bill to punish girls if they came to teachers with questions or concerns about their menstrual cycle, adding that he’d be “amenable” to amendments if they were to come up. The bill ended up passing, 13-5, on Wednesday in a party-line vote, as GOP legislators make up a supermajority in the chamber.

McClain did not immediately respond to a request for comment early Friday. Gantt decried the bill to The Washington Post as “egregious.”

4. Once again,

Republicans love that heavy handed government intrusion … only when it supports their extremist agenda.

[applegrove]

5. Because everyone knows that information belongs in a state government

database and anything that stops women and girls from "women talking" is good

[Hugh_Lebowski]

8. So, what WOULD be 'the intent'?

I mean, literally what does the bill say, I don't mean like 'silencing women' generalizations (true as they may well be)?

24. unfortunately, that's an understatement.

[Timeflyer]

19. Put absurd controls on instruction in public schools, drive good teachers out,

starve the budgets of districts with vouchers and ESAs. There's big money behind the school privatization push in FL and US. This piece of trash bill seems crazy, but it may be part of a gop intimidation campaign to disrupt public education, and little girls aren't voters, so...

[themaguffin]

23. It's definitely part of the plan, no doubt.

[nini]

20. So, there's no nurse girls could go to if they start unexpectedly etc.?

This is just insanity.. it's a freaking part of life!

[Mysterian]

21. Republican hate of women is manifest

Again.

22. It just gets worse every single day.

Fuck the MAGAs.
