MEMPHIS, TN (abc24.com) - A sex strike in the bedroom? It soon could be a reality here in the Mid-South if one liberal leaning group has its way.

The Texas-based group Liberal Ladies Who Lunch is calling for a 7-day sex boycott. The group's motto, "If our reproductive choices are denied, so are yours."

"What the?" said Rick Timberlake. "Are you serious? I don't know about all that."

The group says it is trying to fight back against a push by Conservatives to limit federal government spending on women's health care issues and on things like birth control.

"A week is not that bad, it is not bad all to go a week without having sex." said Jasmine Skipper as she cradled a baby outside the Shelby County Criminal Justice Center.

The group says it hopes to start a chapter in Memphis before the strike, which is set for April 28th-May 5th.

Your man should be supporting your reproductive health and decisions if he truly is someone who cares about you. I have always been a supportive person in a relationship, but if my girlfriend decided to punish me for something I supported her in as a way to stick it to conservatives, it would be the end of that relationship. Whats the goal? How many die hard democrat women are sleeping with die hard republican men? It is manipulation, plain and simple. No wonder the divorce rate is so high. Stop putting your political and religious opinions above your relationships, or stop dating people who don’t share the same views as you. I agree this attack on women’s reproductive rights has got to stop, but this is pointless.

I'm also pretty sure that the majority of the men who oppose women having reproductive choices only have sex with children.

Just because you deny him sex, doesnt mean he isnt having it. He's just not having it with you. LOL

What a silly waste of time. Any woman who is willing to join this protest, wouldn't be having sex with a man who supported what they are fighting against it in the 1st place.
