OMG - big image - a breakdown of the right vs the left. Not a perfect image by a long shot, but they do a decent job of finding ways to put things that give both sides credit.

Maybe they consider rape an acceptable part of doing business, part of a female's job responsibilities. If they had any decency at all they would include it in the job description so that women would understand what is expected of them.

"Other duties as assigned"?

more specific - sign over rights and ownership of their bodies, and swear to remain silent, for example:

I hereby sign over ownership of my body to any and all who care to make use of it for personal sexual release and recreation and will not complain if that overuse results in the need for surgical reconstruction. I will not abort any pregnancy that may result from this activity because you know how god feels about killing those babies.

Something like that.

is that inclusive enough? It doesn't specifically state that the "all" above can use it at the same time...

you and I both know that they were defending defense contractors against liability but the effect is the same. It's open season on women in the defense industry. Maybe in a way this outcome protects women. If arbitration agreements were eliminated they would be forced to kill the women after they finished using them.

You and I both know they had other justifications for voting against the amendment.

You mean those reasons that don't jibe with their collective stance on things like defunding ACORN?
