    What does that phrase even mean

      It’s a reverse of “my body, my choice” (as in "I do whatever I want with my body, including abortions etc.) that is meant to demonstrate the position of right-wingers who want to take that away.

      I don’t think any of right-wingers themselves used that kind of phrasing. But I can be wrong.

          My daughter is in high school and has reported an increase in precisely this kind of thing at her school.

          “Wanna hear a joke? Women’s rights…hurdeehur…”

          • Another anecdote to add (may as well leave it with your daughter’s). Since Wednesday I’ve been catcalled 4 times, just out getting groceries, doing errands. I’m a woman in my late 40s in Canada who hasn’t been catcalled in that specifically threatening nasty way since my early 30s. And it’s ALL been from rabid-looking white guys. They’ve obviously been given a very clear go-ahead with Trump’s win.
