Video after the link.

But yes. It is men. Celibate Catholic bishops to be exact who are influencing politicians to put forth anti-abortion bills and similar anti-contraceptive laws. If course were not alone in Bishops playing politics. In the Philippines, the Bishops tried to block a sexual health bill that doesn't allow abortion but ask for the humane treatment of women who had abortions.

Smells like bullshit

The video notes that the Bishop is even out of touch with the majority of Catholics themselves.

I'm on a borrowed laptop and can't view the video, but I can imagine what's on it. The scariest part is where they oppose even treating these women well.

They oppose treating any women well...but, as they say, baby steps.

I wouldn't bother calling them "MEN".

Real men are not misogynist pigs.

"THE MEN BEHIND ANTI-WOMAN LEGISLATION"

None of them are "MEN".

Misogynists are NEVER MEN!

Meanwhile in the UK our bishops are helping put a stop to our governments attacks on children.

And no, you can't have them!
