Alyssa Milano calls for sex strike to protest Republican abortion laws

'We have control over our own bodies and how we use them'

IT'S AN OLD AND EFFECTIVE IDEA 

Lysistrata - Aristophanes - Ancient Greece - Classical Literature

It is the comic account of one woman's extraordinary mission to end the Peloponnesian War, as Lysistrata convinces the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands as a means of forcing the men to negotiate a peace.

#SexStrike: Alyssa Milano Asks Women To Cut Off Sex With Men In Protest Of Georgia’s Abortion Law

Women call for "sex strike" until men "respect the vagina"

Most people associate the idea of sex strikes with the ancient Greek play Lysistrata, in which women team up to bring about the end of the Peloponnesian War. But sex strikes have spanned hundreds of years and multiple countries. In 1600, for example, Iroquois women refused to engage in sex as a way to stop unregulated warfare. The tactic worked: They gained veto power concerning all future wars and paved the way for future feminist rebellions. In more recent years, sex strikes have surged in popularity as a means to achieve political ends. In 2003, Leymah Gbowee organised a well-publicised sex strike to end Liberia’s brutal civil war. Not only did warlords agree to end the violence, Gbowee was later awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts.
