Shut the hell up, man!

Just got this from an acquaintance who works for Hillary. Since I am apparently not biologically qualified to comment, I will simply post this while crossing my legs in fear of castration.

Let the dialogue commence!

I find the tone of the article to be too aggressive to really make any point and I certainly will not vote for Hillary unless it's her vs. Mike Huckabee. With that said, some of the comments made are understandable to me because I am a woman, and I am a woman who is imperfect, and when you are a woman who is imperfect, especially physically, you know this and are reminded of it every day. I don't think Hillary is the be-all, end-all of womanhood in politics, nor do I believe that our society is entirely patriarchal (but you have to admit to some extent that it is), but I really do think she is being attacked on many levels that have nothing to do with her competency or intelligence and everything to do with her gender, her looks, her age, her choice of clothing, blah blah blah. I'm a chick and that's how I see it ( ... )

I agree with everything Windi said. I think the old guard feminists who are rising up in support of Clinton are just a blind as Huckabee's followers--each doesn't care who it is in office as long as they're a woman/loves jeezuz. The ultimate aim of people truly interested in equal rights should be that it doesn't matter who's in the position, as long as they do the best job. I have absolutely no doubts there are as many qualified women out there who could be president as men, especially if the 2007 candidates are were any indication. I simply think Obama is the best candidate out there and the best one to get away from Bush's "policies."

What I don't agree with is the fact that Windi was not a) cooking and b) pregnant when she wrote this. Also, women shouldn't be on the Internet, as it's not their place. We need a candidate who's willing to take a lot less talking and give Windi a little more of the back of his hand. Like me.

It is typical of that sort of Feminism that they want it both ways. They claim to be able to play in the boy's leagues then pitch a hissy fit when they are treated just as roughly ( ... )

Yes Mike,

You have a functional brain. That makes you biologically unable to comment.

I could point out all the logical fallacies in her article, but I have better things to do for the next 12 hours. Suffice to say she's probably had a left brain lobotomy. Women like her create a negative stereotype that women like me have to overcome when we try to work in traditionally male fields. Everyone assumed I was hyper-sensitive when I became a firefighter. They were afraid to curse around me or they would make it a point to because they wanted to make it clear that they weren't going to bend to my delicate feminine requirements or more likely were hoping to make me uncomfortable enough to leave. Not many of them could just relax and treat me like a person...it was almost always one extreme or the other. Of course after a while they realized they were all far pinker than I will ever be ( ... )
