2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumOne thing I would like to hear Hillary say tonite (please join me)
I would like for her to acknowledge that tomorrow morning she fully expects to hear a critique of her clothes, her makeup, and her voice.
My reason is that I think by acknowledging that this is what will happen that she will stop it from happening without explicitly calling out the sexism of it. I hope it will shame the media.

It's unbecoming.

(41,989 posts)6. Because women are never "victims" of sexism?
Is the victim card like the woman card? Or what was that mocking atrocity I read about, a "deceased woman card"--I heard someone suggested even a Kickstarter to get that excrement produced.
Gross.
Scuba
(53,475 posts)7. No, because it's better to rise above it.

(41,989 posts)8. I think she has done that consistently
For decades.
