You can not recall a US Senator or Representative. Recalls are a thing only at the state level in some states. The only way to get rid of a sitting US MoC in the middle of their term is through expulsion, resignation, or death. Rigel fucked around with this message at 20:23 on Nov 10, 2017 |

Squinty posted:Is "helpmeet" an actual term those people use to describe girls or is it just a horrifying typo? It refers to how Eve is referenced in Genesis - she's created to complete Adam, and the term in older translations is "helpmeet". It's got some anti-feminist tinge to it but it's not really creepy per se, just super patriarichal.

Squinty posted:Is "helpmeet" an actual term those people use to describe girls or is it just a horrifying typo? it's more-or-less a biblical term and is only horrible in the sense that most strongly gendered things in Christianity are horrible which is to say its original use is from the creation of Eve and its etymology is pretty interesting and, erm, not as dreadful as the way modern evangelicals like to use it ("the sole purpose of women is to assist men") edit: modern conservative evangelicals theflyingorc posted:I don't think that's a great description - the wording specifically is trying to invoke the "real work" of life being done by the man, and a woman playing the supporting role.

Attitudes toward drunk driving were much more cavalier so everyone got pretty drunk and drove to each other's place. It wasn't "oh we're going to have 2 drinks in 2 hours and text tomorrow" Edit:. Even my boring rear end parents were like "yeah we had no idea how bad it was, if you were really drunk cops made you pour out your booze and gave you a ride home"

If you're a conservative Christian using the word helpmeet, the context is that a women is a man's domestic helper and has little to no power outside the home or within the family. Regardless of what the word means literally, it's a patriarchal term in those circles; and, frankly, I can't remember ever hearing the word outside of that realm. Source: I spent 18 years in this world.
