Janelle Monáe Thinks Women Should Consider a Sex Strike

rondaJanelle Monáe is making waves this week for her radical approach to women’s rights: a sex strike! The hot young artist recently told Marie Claire that she supports the idea of withholding sex as a form of protest. Under the tag line “The Future Is Female,” Monáe, who performed at the Women’s March in January, explains that she’d be okay with women having a sex strike, also known as the “Lysistratic non-action” approach.

“People have to start respecting the vagina,” Monáe says. “Until every man is fighting for our rights, we should consider stopping having sex.” Though she admits that she “loves men,” she says that she will not tolerate a man who doesn’t “realize our power and our magic”—and by “power,” she’s talking about “pussy power,” of course. Many have rightfully responded that such an extreme act would be punishment for women, too. After all, how can a pussy use its magic if it can’t cast any spells?

Have you ever wanted to show your support for pussy power—by actually dressing up as one? If the answer is yes, you’re in luck: a Brooklyn company is manufacturing Lycra and polyester costumes designed to look like a vajayjay! The company, Conceived in Brooklyn, has been making headlines lately for their adorable, $149 pink costume, which also has a philanthropic aim: to celebrate women’s vaginas!

“A vagina costume can provoke an uncomfortable response,” reads the company’s website. “Our intent is to draw attention to a topic that many people aren’t aware of.” What the company’s doing is often called “vagactivism,” defined as “a delightful form of activism that champions women’s rights by destigmatizing and celebrating the vagina.” If it isn’t totally clear how wearing a giant vagina costume will do that, besides showing pussy pride, Conceived in Brooklyn has promised to donate $10 of every $149 to 50 Cents. Period., an organization that promotes women’s health, menstrual hygiene, and sex education around the world. The costume company is also trying to spread the vagina love on social media with the hashtag #costumeforacause. So, if you want to show your love for the vag—and you don’t mind looking like a giant pink hotdog—you know where you can find your cute vulva costume!

Want to show your support for the vagine? You don’t need to dress like one to show your love!

‘Vote Trump, Get Dumped’ Campaign Stages Sex Strike Against Trump Supporters

votetrumpgetdumpedThroughout history, women have staged sex strikes to raise awareness for important political issues. And now, a couple from Ohio is starting a campaign to get women to pledge that they won’t “date, sleep with, or canoodle with” anyone who supports GOP candidate Donald Trump. “The Greeks did it. Women during the temperance movement did it,” the Vote Trump, Get Dumped website reads. “This is a tried and true method of getting men’s attention when they’re being dumb.” The campaign’s Facebook image is of a pair of naked, crossed legs that represents what Slate is calling “political chastity.”

“To cast a vote for Trump is to agree with his sexist, perverted, demeaning, backwards, offensive treatment of women,” the website reads. Vote Trump, Get Dumped compiled a damning compilation of the worst things Trump has said about women over the years. Many of his most outrageously misogynist quotes have been made into mock-motivational posters with beautiful scenic backgrounds, including this gem: “You know, it really doesn’t matter what [the media] write, as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of ass.” Viewers are asked to imagine having a president who says things like, “If Hillary Clinton can’t satisfy her husband what makes her think she can satisfy America?” As sex strikes usually go, they’re more about getting the media’s attention and raising awareness of important issues than in actually convincing men to change their minds as a result of desperate horniness. It also allows frustrated women to have a fun outlet to vent their rage.

Looking for a fun outlet yourself? No matter your politics, you can be sure we satisfy here!

Hookers For Hilary

Image Source: HookersForHillary on FacebookDennis Hof, owner of the Las Vegas brothel the Moonlite Bunny Ranch, is turning his attention away from sex work and toward a more main stream subject: the 2016 presidential election. Hof and the ladies who work at the Bunny Ranch decided they wanted to throw their support to Hilary Clinton, a candidate who’s championing women’s rights as part of her campaign. And they decided there’s no better way to bring attention to Clinton than by caucusing with sexy, skin-tight red, white, and blue negligees and stilettos!

Hof is no stranger to getting involved in politics—in 2008 and 2012 he caucused for Libertarian candidate Ron Paul with “Pimpin’ For Paul.” He believes strongly in the importance of elections and politics, and is adamant about the Bunny Ranch’s women voting in the upcoming election. While not everyone is for Clinton (including Hof, who is torn between her and Donald Trump), Hof believes it’s a great way to get people interested in politics and give the Bunny Ranch some free PR: “[Hookers for Hillary] is a great way to get, not only the Bunny Ranch’s name out there, but to get more support for Hillary… Hopefully maybe people who were not really [political] followers before kind of looked into it and went, ‘Wow, this is big! What’s going on?’” God bless America!

Looking to get involved in some very important issues? We know a thing or two about getting attention the sexy way here!
