The Salt Lake Tribune reports:
Republican lawmakers and Utah politicos celebrated the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade on Friday, with one legislator saying she trusted Utah women “to control [their] intake of semen.” Rep. Karianne Lisonbee described a text message she said she received urging her to hold men accountable for unwanted pregnancies.
“I got a text message today saying I should seek to control men’s ejaculations and not women’s pregnancies. I do trust women enough to control when they allow a man to ejaculate inside of them and to control that intake of semen,” the Clearfield Republican told reporters at a news conference at the Utah Capitol on Friday.

A legislator just used the phrase “intake of semen” in response to a question about holding men accountable for unwanted pregnancies.
Add that to the list of things I never thought I would hear during a press conference.

The Republican Jesus delusion is strong in this one
Imagine blaming women for the devastating loss of bodily autonomy by saying it’s our fault we can’t stop an often much larger man from ejaculating inside of us
Her cruelty is so damn casual, too https://t.co/XyNzWNMWUB
