Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) has drafted a resolution on the claim that global warming will be harder on women than men, potentially forcing many into prostitution.
She states that climate change will cause food and water shortages and because women are mostly in charge of feeding for families and locating water, many will be forced to engage in “transactional sex”.
Of all the looney things coming out of the left over the past few years this one has got to make the top 10.
“[F]ood insecure women with limited socioeconomic resources may be vulnerable to situations such as sex work, transactional sex, and early marriage that put them at risk for HIV, STIs, unplanned pregnancy, and poor reproductive health,” it read.
The resolution concluded by saying Congress must recognize the “disparate impacts of climate change on women,” and must encourage the use of “gender-sensitive frameworks in developing policies to address climate change.”
Lee introduced a similar resolution in the last Congress, but it didn’t go anywhere. Lee said in 2013 that her resolution is meant to remind policymakers that more women need to be included in discussions about how to respond to the changing climate.
