Go on sex strike, Lets see how long your sex lasts without it, not long i wager, you have a prestigious history in not been able to keep your legs closed at the best of times.
Cenk, this isn't a new idea. I'm pretty sure it was done in Turkey a few years back. I'm not sure if it was just in the Kurdish community or how it worked out, but women have organized similar movements before.
relationship experts and public opinion concerning dating and marriage in the U.S. and the assumption that in traditional regions of africa cultural mores of marital behaviour differ from those of the U.S. which is more wealthy and educated (for example national education and income is positively correlated to lower rates of childbirth).
I'm happy to admit it's a guess but I think the facts would bear me out that married couples in Kenya have sex more often than married couples in the U.S.
first thing that popped into my mind when they mentioned sex strike and kenya was that women were trying to tackle AIDS. i was kinda dissapointed though, it would be very cool and could really push people to try and make things better. hell, if all the women in my country really commited to a sex strike i would put on 8 condoms just to get back in action
Watch this page after a week. If you are lucky and a woman for that matter, go to Kenya next week.....Even lions will scamper....Kenya men are known for sex...will they wait for a week....? Did you hear about Sex tourism....
Another thing is that it could possibly exacerbate the pre-existing problem of violence against women. Many (horrible) men already feel that the only thing their wives are good for is sex. When they don't even have that anymore... then what?
As for the political effectiveness, they're not really giving their husbands much credit. Of course they care about violence more than sex. It's their nature as men. lol. Look at the percentage of violence to sex in Bond movies. 80% shooting, 20% sex. lol.
yeah it's really strange with women and sex... the way they often don't really seem to care about it, it seems like it doesn't give them any joy whatsoever. when in fact, women have amaaazing sexual capabilities that men can only dream of... that's really fucked up...
Do you have sex strikes in the US....It is good to Kenyan men to make judgement. Kenyan men will have it rough to stay without sex even for a day. The Kenyan women know their best tactics..they know the guys can't stay without..It was good youe explained the pressy stole the election in 2007

Lysistrata is one of the few surviving plays written by the master of Old Comedy, Aristophanes. Originally performed in classical Athens in 411 BC, it is a comic account of one woman's extraordinary mission to end The Peloponnesian War. Lysistrata convinces the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands as a means of forcing the men to negotiate a peace, a strategy however that inflames the battle between the sexes.
Really, dumbass? I'm a FORMER FEMINIST. While i was a feminist, I met nothing but moronic man-haters who were OBSESSED with the idea of being perpetual victims of men, when, in truth, most of their problems were caused by themselves and they're own stupid choices. Men were just a convenient excuse to avoid self-responsibility.
Yep. That means ALL Feminism is bad. Because you found ditsy feminists who blamed males for everything in the world, that means all of them do it. You can fight for woman's rights without blaming men. So you call me a dumb-ass and yet you're the one broadly defining a group of people by a few experiences. Christians in the past, have treated me, and others, in a bad manner. They were holier than thou... Does that mean I should hate all of them? No.
Your page is filled with comments by people who can't stand you, angelicexcel. Having conflicts with people on YouTube appears to be a pattern for you -- and you're telling ME to get a life? lol Maybe you should take the hint and work on your personality. Later, sista -friend! lol
Lmao. Over half of the bad comments are ones that were posted to me because I said something sarcastically, and they didn't realize it was sarcastic. Youtube is not my life, I get on here as a way to bide my time before work, then I come home and spend time with my boyfriend. I am Human so I am occasionally wrong. People don't like me because I think Abortion is okay, I'm an atheist, and I think being Gay is also okay. I'm not in a conflict with anyone on my page, that is their opinion.
I have five comments that are bad.. You call that filled? lol I've never even talked to two of them: WhiteIGNITERS and evictor09. Check out bthebest23 channel... I called him a douche, and I'm not the only one that thinks that way about him, so he got mad that I called him one hence one more bad comment. Duder1969 is probably one I deserved, because I can't articulate myself perfectly, and they didn't understand where I was coming from. They rest of my comments are neutral or good. =D
You have 5 negative comments on your page (most people have none) and there are only 13 comments in total. No matter how you slice it, that's a lot. Whatever.
You said filled... and I refuted all but 2. So... 2/13 = filled? I'm a feminist/Atheist Liberal who fights for Gay rights in a Christian Dominated country, I wonder why I get negative comments... OH YEAH, I use the first amendment.
All I told you was to not generalize a group of people based on the ones you have met, because not all Feminists hate men. I'm one, and I love men. YAY. PENIS.
Thank you. You are one of the few people who are still willing to say... "I don't agree with what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it." And That is an admirable trait in a person.
Thank you... I think everyone needs that little boost once in a while.
eh, im just that kinda person, very open minded, if some of these other ppl on youtube wernt so closed minded, then the internet would be alot more peacefull and fun
also, i think that everyone, weather atheist, gay, crippled, retarted, muslm, feminist, white supremiecist, liberal, whatever, should be able to be that way, and should be left alone about there choices/conditions, i think everyone on the face of this little, insignifigant planet should be able to make his/her own choices, and they should be able to live there own life! YAY FOR ME FOR AN EPIC SPEACH OF GREATNESS ABOUT BEING WHO YOU WNATS TO BE :D
I'm sure there not gonna have sex wtih KENYAN men. That's usually how it goes "I don't want to have sex" that means "I don't want to have sex with YOU" so they cheat
They will probably just end up raping the women. How many times do we here about rebels raping women in Africa. They probably don't have complicated domestic violence laws such as the concept of a man being able to rape his wife, its not that long ago that U.S. laws began to charge men with rape if they forced their wives to have sex.
well, this would be great for prostitutes. their business will go through the roof, and so will the hospitals that treat all the stds coming from it. actually this could cause a chain reaction all the way to wall street which could fix the fucking economy. Let them hoes go on strike, we all knew they were skanks anyway.
You guys talk like this is a new idea. Ever hear of the ancient Greek playwright Aristophones and his play, Lysistrata? Yeah, that predates this Kenya thing by just a couple of years. . . .
You have bi-partisan support on this one cenk... It is true, there is not much difference between Republicans and Democrats on foreign policy... ha... funny stuff
i think that more than the sex it shows that the first ladies kinda dont show supportfr the husbands.. i know .. this is arguable but it shows the ladies not behind the p.m. and the pres. 100%
Sex strike is an old idea, Cenk. It's an old trick that date back to the days of Aristophanes and Ancient Greece. I'm not sure if this one will work because it only lasts a week.
Using reason? Getting things done on your own power rather than manipulating men into getting you what you want? Just two silly ideas off the top of my head.
Have you seen their ideas of normal? There doesn't seem to be much reason in their politics anyway. It's a continent full of 'tin-pot' dictators and religious/tribal nuts.
"Using reason? Getting things done on your own power rather than manipulating men into getting you what you want? Just two silly ideas off the top of my head. "
Hard to reason with someone when you aren't allowed schooling and get beaten bloody if you speak out. And 'getting things done'? Really? How? Have you ever visited another country? Women spend half their day hauling water and the other half cooking over dung-fueled fires.
Maybe but I found the OP's statement a little general. As well as Ana's gleeful "I love how women can use sex to get what they want."
Ok in Kenya it might make sense although I sincerely doubt it would make any difference in a society like that (the men I doubt will have many qualms about getting theirs elsewhere.)
And in the West often it is used by women who have no need for such selfish antisocial behavior. This is more what I was referring to. I should've clarified.
The Kenyan organizers might've been reading Aristophanes.
"Lysistrata accepted the men's conduct of the war out of female respect for male authority until it became obvious that there were no real men in Athens who could bring an end to the destruction and waste of young lives." (from the Wikipedia entry)
Then she O R G A N I Z E D the women of Athens.
Apparently, the organizers of the Kenyan protest have offered to pay prostitutes to join them. GO GIRLZ!!!
not productive? Hell...tell that to my garage....sparkly clean and organized all because I withheld the poon from my husband^^
Sex strikes only work if the sex AFTER the objective is accomplished promises to be like, super freaky deaky...gotta give 'em incentive...and most men will do just about anything for the buck wild....can't half ass it ladies!!! Gotta commit!
the fact that they think it'll work is ridiculous! how important is sex for men anyway? most women can go for long periods without getting irrate and i'm guessing that men can too- sex is not oxygen it's not a necessary survival mechanism and it should not be used as a weapon or an incentive, and plus it's so much less hassel
The fact that the strike is only one week long is the genius part. No men is going to take it seriously (like Cenk), while the women's rights organizations establish a precedent. If it's a success, then they can actually make new strikes for longer increments.
the last time my girlfriend tried to use sex as a weapon on me it backfired, i extended the date on HER.
just a heads up (no pun intended) to any of you girls thinking about using this tactic, some guys dont respond well to threats, and they may end up making you regret it.
Oh yes, I can see basic biology being overcome by bloody-mindedness at your whim. Of course this is the reason there are no more female prostitutes either, right?
Cenk you said that the women can get them off their backs for a couple weeks. Cenk if you think that is how it works I would hate to think what goes on in your bedroom. lol
Firstly Ana is wrong about the Kenyan Elections. Nobody is sure what happened exactly what happened as the south african Judge who was appointed to investigate these claims concluded that it was impossible to tell who won.
This is because both leaders controlled huge parts of the country where they simultaenously rigged even to the point dead people voted.
However the Presidents supporters were massacared by the PM's supporters.
Sure they should go on sex strike. This shows that they truly wear the pants in their families while their husbands wear the skirts for they are their wives MAN-BITCHES and MAN-PUSSIES!
Lysistrata (Attic Greek: Λυσιστράτα, "Army-disbander") is one of the few surviving plays written by the master of Old Comedy, Aristophanes. Originally performed in classical Athens in 411 BC, it is a comic account of one woman's extraordinary mission to end The Peloponnesian War. Lysistrata convinces the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands as a means of forcing the men to negotiate a peace, a strategy however that inflames the battle between the sexes
I like how ana said that thousands of people died as if thats an insignificant fact. maybe THAT should have been the main story, instead of this bullshit. Im disappointed at The Young Turks.
if it last forever until the conflict is resolve, i think it'll work out. It will also solve the AIDS epidemic and the high population rates(idk if kenya is populated). This will also make the men mad, so they're uprise too, but it mite lead to rape IDK!!!
Hmm yeah, because lets face it...Kenya, isnt exactly the best place in the world for human interests and rights. I dont wanna offend anyone, but thats just what i think...
There is no such thing as a "Kenyan" people. It's a state with colonial borders and a bunch of ethnic groups who want their own states and wish not to be in a artificial forced union. Kenya sucks.
I've done two black chicks. Good lays. They found out the rumors about white boys being small were unfounded, or at least not quite so true... Plus, they like the lick-lick action...

Yeah, I'm playing the bad guy!

"Using reason? Getting things done on your own power rather than manipulating men into getting you what you want? Just two silly ideas off the top of my head. "
Hard to reason with someone when you aren't allowed schooling and get beaten bloody if you speak out. And 'getting things done'? Really? How? Have you ever visited another country? Women spend half their day hauling water and the other half cooking over dung-fueled fires.
Too glib, megamarsvin. Go research.

Maybe but I found the OP's statement a little general. As well as Ana's gleeful "I love how women can use sex to get what they want."
Ok in Kenya it might make sense although I sincerely doubt it would make any difference in a society like that (the men I doubt will have many qualms about getting theirs elsewhere.)
And in the West often it is used by women who have no need for such selfish antisocial behavior. This is more what I was referring to. I should've clarified.

The Kenyan organizers might've been reading Aristophanes.
"Lysistrata accepted the men's conduct of the war out of female respect for male authority until it became obvious that there were no real men in Athens who could bring an end to the destruction and waste of young lives." (from the Wikipedia entry)
Then she O R G A N I Z E D the women of Athens.
Apparently, the organizers of the Kenyan protest have offered to pay prostitutes to join them. GO GIRLZ!!!

Sex strikes only work if the sex AFTER the objective is accomplished promises to be like, super freaky deaky...gotta give 'em incentive...and most men will do just about anything for the buck wild....can't half ass it ladies!!! Gotta commit!
DivineMacabre 2 years ago 6
the fact that they think it'll work is ridiculous! how important is sex for men anyway? most women can go for long periods without getting irrate and i'm guessing that men can too- sex is not oxygen it's not a necessary survival mechanism and it should not be used as a weapon or an incentive, and plus it's so much less hassel

The fact that the strike is only one week long is the genius part. No men is going to take it seriously (like Cenk), while the women's rights organizations establish a precedent. If it's a success, then they can actually make new strikes for longer increments.

Firstly Ana is wrong about the Kenyan Elections. Nobody is sure what happened exactly what happened as the south african Judge who was appointed to investigate these claims concluded that it was impossible to tell who won.
This is because both leaders controlled huge parts of the country where they simultaenously rigged even to the point dead people voted.
However the Presidents supporters were massacared by the PM's supporters.
The sex strike wont work though.

Sure they should go on sex strike. This shows that they truly wear the pants in their families while their husbands wear the skirts for they are their wives MAN-BITCHES and MAN-PUSSIES!

Lysistrata (Attic Greek: Λυσιστράτα, "Army-disbander") is one of the few surviving plays written by the master of Old Comedy, Aristophanes. Originally performed in classical Athens in 411 BC, it is a comic account of one woman's extraordinary mission to end The Peloponnesian War. Lysistrata convinces the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands as a means of forcing the men to negotiate a peace, a strategy however that inflames the battle between the sexes

if it last forever until the conflict is resolve, i think it'll work out. It will also solve the AIDS epidemic and the high population rates(idk if kenya is populated). This will also make the men mad, so they're uprise too, but it mite lead to rape IDK!!!

Just like the Greek tale of Lysistrata

Tell the troops it was a false alarm
'Cause if I die I want to be in your arms
And so I won't go to war, no, I won't go to war
Said I won't go to war no more"
