The only upside to T.I.'s explosive and problematic interview is that it might result in some real progress for women.
went viral, New York State legislators took notice and have put the wheels in motion to outlaw “virginity tests” by gynecologists across the state of New York.” involves a doctor checking to see if a woman’s hymen is still intact, which is supposed to indicate virginity. This is problematic for a number of reasons including the facts that 1) virginity is a social construct 2) there is no medical necessity to check one’s hymen and 3) the hymen can tear for a number of reasons besides sex.
If the bill is passed, any doctor that performs a hymen exam would be charged with professional misconduct and possibly even sexual assault charges. If New York state succeeds in outlawing this barbaric practice, the rest of the country could follow suit. Some people think you can tell if someone’s had sex before if their hymen is stretched open. But that’s not the case.YOU👏CAN’T👏TELL👏IF👏SOMEONE’S👏HAD👏SEX👏BY👏THE👏WAY👏THEIR👏HYMEN👏LOOKS👏OR👏FEELS
