*In a recently surfaced video from January 2022, North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, who is now the GOP candidate for governor, disparages the idea of providing birth control to young women.
At a Hilltop Baptist Church event in Thomasville, he dismissed sexual education programs and birth control, and made crude gestures to emphasize his point, The Huffington Post reports. In the clip, Robinson waves his hand near his groin, and says women need to “get this under control.”
“Particularly we love to tell our young women that. We want to empower you,” he mockingly said. “We want to help you to build up your mind so you can be empowered.”
Robinson continued, “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, waving his hand near his groin. “Get this under control,” he added.
“See, because this region right here, that’s the only region on your body that can make life and take life,” he continued. “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.”

Robinson then dismissed the idea of educating young women about contraception.
“All this giving out of birth control and advising people how,” he said. “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.”
Robinson concluded by telling women to be “responsible with your body. That’s a novel idea,” he said. “Has not reached our school system, sadly.”
