Rick Perry Calls New Abortion Ruling ‘A Threat to Men’s Rights’

AUSTIN, Texas — Texas Gov. Rick Perry has called a judge’s ruling on the restrictive new abortion law passed last July by the Texas legislature “a threat to men’s rights as keepers of women.”

U.S. District Judge Lee Yeakel yesterday assessed two controversial provisions of the law, striking down the requirement that abortion providers have admitting privileges at hospitals within 30 miles of their clinics, but upholding the restrictions on a physician’s ability to offer nonsurgical abortions unless the mother’s health or life is at risk.

Yeakel’s decision enables dozens of Texas clinics that would have been forced to close under the original law to stay open.

The Texas attorney general’s office had argued that the law protects women and the life of the fetus, but Gov. Perry said in a statement that the law was also intended to “protect the rights of men who want to keep guard over their childbearing partners.”

“We will continue fighting to implement the laws passed by the duly-elected officials of our state, laws that reflect the will and values of Texans. Yeakel’s decision is a threat to men’s rights as keepers of women and their role as family protectors,” read the statement.

Perry argued that one of the reasons Texas is “losing its grip” on pro-life legislation is that “too much emphasis has been placed on women’s rights” and said abortion should “also be looked at as a men’s rights issue.”

“Every man who has had relations with a woman has a right to protect his family, and that means limiting a physician’s ability to impose abortion on would-be fathers.”

Perry even went so far as to claim that “abortion destroys a man’s ability to be a man,” which “could leave some men to turn to homosexuality, because neither way is he going to be able to have a child.”

The American Civil Liberties Union and Planned Parenthood issued a joint statement declaring the decision a “partial victory,” but also admitted that they’re “no longer clear on exactly which laws we’re fighting for and what they mean.”

    If this is satire, it should be clearly labeled. Republicans spread enough false information. They don’t need any help.

    get this man out of a position of political power – “keepers of women”? “every man who has had relations with a woman has a right to protect his family”? I’m sorry, did he just call *rapists* “heads of households”???

    Texans must make a drastic change away from this type of representation in Austin. There is no doubt these men are scared that they will not be able to control women in the future. This points to possessor’s and controllers of everything around them.
    Rick Perry said, “Every man who has had relations with a woman has a right to protect his family, and that means limiting a physician’s ability to impose abortion on would-be fathers.” This is one sick man. Perry tried to re-state what his wife said when she came out for women’s rights to make their own abortion decision.
    Perry also said, “Texas is “losing its grip” on pro-life legislation is that “too much emphasis has been placed on women’s rights” and said abortion should “also be looked at as a men’s rights issue.” A woman’s body is that woman’s and no man, no matter who he is or thinks he is, has a right to make decisions over her body!

    Would be fathers who insist on preventing women who don’t want children from having abortions should have to suffer from the same restrictions as she will suffer. These Fathers should be banned from attending university or college or gaining an apprenticeship for a period of 5 years – since their actions in impregnating a woman restrict her from having a career or continuing her education. It’s only fair they should have to suffer the same restrictions as their partner.

    If all men were like Perry there would be no abortions because there would be no pregnancies, and there would be no ho homosexuality either. Perry is the end of the human race as we know it.
