Want to hand over all reproductive control over your body to the state legislation.

Abortion is actually a contentious issue among libertarians.

Want to strip away all anti-discrimination protections.

Correct. One has the right to choose with whom they associate, and the right to choose how they use their speech.

Hope to pull away all social support. Including WIC.

I would argue that libertarianism, in general, is not mutually exclusive to social programs.

Remove school funding

This one I'm actually not sure about. I have not made any solid decision on the matter. That being said, I will say that the majority of libertarians would oppose it in favor of private schooling.

Are you telling me you are not looking forward to the era where you have to stay married to a man who beats you because if you leave or even call the cops it will mean utter ruin for you and your children? Children who won’t be able to get free schooling or even discounted food. And of course your employer will be able to sexually harass you as much as they would like since it isn’t technically a violation of the NAP but even if it were you won’t report him because you really need this job. Why wouldn’t women like to return to the 1850s?

I have absolutey no idea what you are talking about here. Everything that you just said is not libertarian. Furthermore, your point about the NAP is completely incorrect -- sexual harrassment is, without any doubt, an agression.
