Mock bills threatening men's rights offer comic relief – and perspective

Jennifer Granholm and Tracy Clark-Flory, staff writer at Salon.com, review how satire fueled by outrage over the latest wave of bills threatening women’s rights is raising awareness, along with inspiring mock bills that poke fun at the absurdities in extreme anti-abortion bills and other women-targeted measures. Counter legislation ranges from declaring every sperm “sacred,” bills limiting vasectomies and more. Clark-Flory salutes female lawmakers pushing these mock bills: “They’re being courageous. They’re being bold and they have a tremendous sense of humor.”
