New Video Exposes Inappropriate Behavior of GOP's Mark Robinson

A newly revealed video from 2022 features North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson ridiculing the notion that young women should have access to birth control while speaking at a church event, as reported by OKMagazine.com.

“Particularly we love to tell our young women that. We want to empower you,” he began.

Robinson suggested that women should take control of their reproductive health. He is accused of using inappropriate gestures while stating that women should not engage in sexual activity until they are ready to have children.

Robinson repeatedly waved his hand near his groin, saying women just need to “get this under control.”

“We want to help you to build up your mind so you can be empowered. Why don’t you use some of that building up of your mind and building up of empowerment to move down here, to this region down here,” he said, moving his hand around his stomach and crotch. “Get this under control”

“See, because this region right here, that’s the only region on your body that can make life and take life,” he added. “If there’s anything we need to be telling our young people, it’s they need to be responsible with their reproductive systems. That means you don’t lay down and act like you’re making a baby til you’re ready to have a baby.”

“All this giving out of birth control and advising people how,” he continued. “Here’s how you don’t have a baby: You don’t have what you do to make a baby until you’re ready to have that baby… You be responsible with your body. That’s a novel idea,” he said. “Has not reached our school system, sadly.”

Robinson, the GOP nominee for governor, is accused of having a history of making offensive remarks.

He has not clarified his stance on birth control access for young women.

He is currently running against Democrat Josh Stein, who is leading in recent polls.
