Lol no. A general sales tax on all goods, including tampons, is not a woman only tax. Government regulation of all health facilities including abortion clinics is not an attack on women. Opposing the mandatory 3rd Party provision of birth control without a co-pay, without regard to need, want, or the fact that no other medicine gets such special treatment, is not misogyny. Plus you never hear from the "muh body" crowd about how terrible it is that old, white men have oppressed women by banning consensual female circumcision. It's just stupid rhetoric, like "Southern Strategy" or "war on religion".

No. I'm a religious pro-lifer and have no problem with Women. I care about the life of the fetus. Most pro-lifers are the same way, though there are select cases of sexism that unfortunately get taken as examples of the movement as a whole by trigger-happy politicians.

You'd think the real war on women would be coming from the abortion absolutists who are always fine with it, even if one is performed because the baby is a girl instead of a boy.  The Chi-Coms really led to a wave of female infanticide with their 1 child policy. While this is clearly a non-issue in the U.S. in that there would not appear to be a trend of abortions against baby girls because they are baby girls, its always alarming to see the abortion absolutists argue that prohibiting sex-motivated abortions is somehow bad.
