Senator Janet Howell, Baddass Bitch of the Day
To protest a bill that would require women to undergo an ultrasound  before having an abortion, Virginia State Sen. Janet Howell (D-Fairfax)  on Monday attached an amendment that would require men to have a rectal  exam and a cardiac stress test before obtaining a prescription for  erectile dysfunction medication.
“We need some gender equity here,” she told HuffPost. “The Virginia  senate is about to pass a bill that will require a woman to have totally  unnecessary medical procedure at their cost and inconvenience. If we’re  going to do that to women, why not do that to men?”

Stupendous.
