I worry a lot about my nieces if this doesn't start changing.

You won't be here long 1 post wonder. So happy you took the time to create an account. My post really got to you huh?

I was about to alert the post, but when I refreshed it was gone. Can't believe some people have nothing better to do than open an account to post one offensive comment. Pathetic.

just to come here and prove the OP's point. I'm sure it was just trying to be helpful.

fuck that shit.

It was sexist, misogynistic bullshit, blaming a woman for her husbands actions, and attempts to shame her for actions of her husband.

His entire debate performance was a big guy trying to intimidate the "little woman." I wonder if he envisioned Hillary rushing off the stage in tears! I'm sure his base of neanderthals ate it up, but surely voters with a functioning brain saw it as sexist, misogynistic bullshit.

When my daughter was born in the mid '70s, I expected her to thrive in a very different world than I had. She has had an easier time, yet four decades later I am angry that my teen-aged granddaughters are seeing the first woman soon-to-be President treated not as an equal adversary but as an object that a man feels free to scorn and shame for her husband's alleged misdeeds. She is a brilliant, competent world leader not an f'ing appendage of her husband.

Probably it is not taking very good care of itself, thus this...obsessiveness.

We are beyond helping this OCD troll.

No way to do an intervention from on-line though.

It is very strange though

What a dumb dummy.

Seeing how quickly we can squash them is pretty entertaining.

Bill Clinton is NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT! Why is this even an issue. What happens in their marriage is between them. Donald Trump IS running for President and how he treats women is very much an issue.

I am so sick of this shit!

account to respond to me. You have nothing better to do with yourself, I see... get a life bozo.

After the first debate a graphic circulated asking (paraphrased) how people would react if Clinton had shown up wholly unprepared, sniffling like a coke fiend and interrupting her opponent 70 times. It also asked how she'd be treated if she were a serial adulterer who'd had five kids with three separate men.

Possibly the best single-image summary of the playing field that I've seen during this entire cycle.


If someone knows the image and can post a link, please do!

We've been saying this for years.

Trump is a direct result of ingrained sexism and misogyny.

Like, really solidified it.

Donald is right about one thing, he's divided the country into two polar opposites, with few in the middle. I'm ashamed of that other half. I really am.

When I saw what the Putin wannabe had done, bringing those four women in and holding a presser with them, I actually got sick to my stomach and had to leave the room. Kudos to CNN for giving it only minimal coverage and not attending the 'press conference'.

I'm to the point that I can barely speak his name because it leaves a foul taste in my mouth. But have we, as a country, sunk so low, have we, at last, have no decency left? That something like 40% of the population think he is 'right for America'?

I seriously doubt that the Republican Party can recover. This is what they have wrought with their decision to obstruct Obama for 6 solid years trying to delegitimize him. The more significant question though is, can we, as a nation ever recover? The fascist haters, aka Deplorables, have been given a voice. And once you legitimize that voice it is awfully difficult to silence it again.

Being a woman I have experienced this. I don't think that this country is fucked though. I think that this country is messed up but things can get better. We all have to recognize sexism and keep fighting it in the classroom, the home, the office, the courts, the government, etc. Things may suck but they are better than they used to be. If we keep fighting then they will be better in the future. I expect to live another fifty years or so. In fifty years, I want to look back on a lot of progress that will be made the way my grandmother could. This may not be an eye opener for you or me but it has been for many people. I think that more people are recognizing the misogyny and getting angry about it.
