For Katrina Shealy, being South Carolina's only female state senator means facing some unique challenges. The main one seems to be fellow state senator Tom Corbin.
That’s when Corbin – no stranger to making bizarre statements –  is said to have begun needling his lone female colleague regarding her gender.
“I see it only took me two years to get you wearing shoes,” Corbin told [State Sen. Katrina Shealy], who was elected in 2012 as a petition candidate. 
This was apparently an oblique barefoot and pregnant reference, and a staffer notes that "he makes comments like that all the time."
At one point in the conversation – which quickly escalated into a confrontation – Shealy is said to have angrily asked Corbin where he “got off” attacking women. [...]
“Well, you know God created man first,” Corbin said, reportedly smirking at Shealy.  “Then he took the rib out of man to make woman.  And you know, a rib is a lesser cut of meat.”
no war on,  plenty or respect for and reaching out to women the republican claim this election cycle but every time we hear the party say something of late anything one of their whack a moles pops up and reveals their real sentiments toward women, but they continue to say they are doing all the above and more but the clinics are still closed the maternity leave is still missing as fair wages and child daycare  

nothing has changed as they predicted they said they did not need to change their "VALUES" now know as "PRINCIPLES" just the way they lie about it and they kept that promise notice how all the things they uphold are those things that are what they have done the last 6 years?  so far this year only bill they passed the keystone pipeline knowing it will be vetoed.
