This lady argues women should go on a sex strike if their "men" don't vote for Democrats. ROFL.
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. In the ancient Greek comedy by Aristophanes, the character Lysistrata urges women to go on a sex strike to get men on both sides to end the Peloponnesian War. In our case, a sex strike against service sex can be a powerful statement -- that female desire, a metric of agency like women's votes, will be heard.
Meanwhile, surprising newer science -- much of it done by female researchers, field scientists, and other experts -- is telling us what women want and need. In a radical upending of long-held stereotypes I think of as The Great Correction, they have discovered that when measured correctly, the female libido is as "strong" as the male. They have learned that the overfamiliarity with a spouse and the institutionalization of the relationship that accompany companionate domesticity actually dampen female desire in ways they don't male desire -- suggesting long-term, monogamous relationships may actually be harder for women than for men.
Anthropologist Meredith Small has noted that the single most documented preference across species of female primates is ... a taste for sexual novelty. Canadian researchers found that straight women's bodies respond to a greater range of sexual stimuli than heterosexual men's, calling into question the easy presumption that it is men who have wide and varied sexual menus. Other research and experts like Esther Perel tell us of female study participants and patients who find the security and comfort of their marriages -- the very things we are taught women crave -- to be anaphrodisiacs that blunt their lust.
It is women, not just men, and women perhaps even more than men, who pine for sexual adventure. Without it, many of us find our libidos wither. And then we may resign ourselves to serving what we think others deserve, rather than feeling entitled to get ours and get off.
Women don't owe men a thing. If anything, the statistics show, we are owed. It's time to make sex and sexual pleasure female-centric.

You can't make this stuff up. Or maybe you can. The article to which Water Dog linked has nothing, nothing at all to do with arguing women should go on a sex strike if their "men" don't vote for Democrats.
It’s relatively easy to agree that only Homo sapiens can speak about things that don’t really exist, and believe six impossible things before breakfast. You could never convince a monkey to give you a banana by promising him limitless bananas after death in monkey heaven.
From Greek Mythology to the Vietnam war, this is not a new concept: I would imagine that this strategy has more success at NYU than Liberty University. I'm pretty sure Mike Pence withholds sex from everyone.
If you google Trump dating D.C., you find numerous stories of woe from Trump administration officials who find dating difficult in a city where people work in the deep state federal government. But fear not: Everyone can now date within their own political bubble:
The Hill wrote:DonaldDaters launched Monday for Apple and Android devices with the hope of encouraging young conservatives to meet and mingle, Fox News reported.
"For many young Trump supporters, liberal intolerance has made meeting and dating nearly impossible," Emily Moreno, CEO of Donald Daters, said in a statement. "Support for the president has become a dealbreaker instead of an icebreaker. That's why we created a new platform for Trump supporters to meet people without being afraid of talking politics."

Yup.
Once again evidence that Water Dog just finds his stuff on some echo-chamber website and posts it without even bothering to read it?
And ...

Does it look like DrC actually read the article, which is precisely about women NOT allowing themselves to be treated as sex-providing objects, but instead demanding what THEY want from sex? Which is often, the article maintains, not what men imagine they want ...
Hmmm ... that's a difficult one ...

Yep, incel dog didn't bother to read it from the opinion section of cnn but ripped it out of some "conservative" rag that agreed with how he chooses to perceive women since he can't actually get one to take notice in him in real life. Its nice that he just let them tell him what the opinion piece said rather than having to read it for himself...this seems to be a trend for our incely friend when it comes to searching for things to confirm his myopic view of the world, life, women, etc. He is the epitome of a Trump supporter, completely lacking critical thinking skills and no desire to actually engage with fact. Although he does have an awesome sounding not imaginary lady friend who is totally real...

All over the news cycle? Dude, your own google link only shows like 4 hits all referencing the cnn opinion piece that doesn't say anything like what incel dog claimed it said. Might want to revisit that one or at least read the article in question....
