"Michigan House Republicans prohibited state Rep. Lisa Brown (D) from speaking on the floor after she ended a speech against a bill restricting abortions by referencing her female anatomy, the Detroit News reports. Said Brown: “Finally, Mr. Speaker, I’m flattered that you’re all so interested in my vagina, but ‘no’ means ‘no.’” Republicans said Brown was “offensive” and wouldn’t allow her to voice her opinion on a school employee retirement bill. Responded Brown: “If I can’t say the word vagina, why are we legislating vaginas? What language should I use?”"
