One group was handing out pamphlets "Urge Women To Go Home And Put Some Clothes On"
And this is the group that republican nominee Ryan was pandering to. And he claims that there is no conservative war on women. This is as bad as the Taliban in Afghanistan. http://thinkprogress.org/election/2012/09/14/851401/values-voters-women/ WASHINGTON, DC Literature being handed out at the Values Voter Summit on Friday attacks women for being immodest and extolled them to go home and put some clothes on! In flyers and brochures on display at Values Voters, the social conservative conference where Republican Vice Presidential nominee Paul Ryan spoke, an organization called Modesty Matters criticized women for dressing immodestly at church, and blamed women for causing men to stare lustfully at them. Women must embrace MODESTY in dress and behavior, one of the handouts read. Women dressed immodestly in church are an insult to a holy God, another said. Other excerpts: - From the Modesty: Its nothing to be ashamed of pamphlet:Since men are particularly visual, immodesty in church can trigger lustful thoughts. My mens bible study group talks frequently about controlling our lust, thoughts, and eyes. Yes the problem and responsibility are ours, but is it really reasonable for the women of the church to make it THIS difficult for us? - From the True Woman Manifesto: All women, whether married of single, are to model femininity in their various relationships, by exhibiting a distinctive modesty, responsiveness, and gentleness of spirit. The Family Research Council provided Modesty Matters with a table at the conference to distribute these pamphlets. Republicans have repeatedly voted to cut funding for contraception, outlaw abortions, and defund Planned Parenthood. Now another far-right groups are eyeing a new battleground: the wardrobe. ----------------- -- Larry C.
