Yes, Pence is just the flip side of Trump's misogyny. It really is no surprise that he's not backing away from the vulgar orange groper.

Some Republicans have demanded laws to ban transgender women from entering women’s restrooms or locker rooms, but instead they might focus on the risk of Trump doing this. He has boasted that he marched unannounced into changing rooms to ogle beauty pageant contestants naked, and a former contestant, Miss Arizona, Tasha Dixon, said he did just that as they were changing into bikinis.

I'm glad someone is pointing this out. This one is bothering more than a lot of the other claims--not because it's worse, but because it's yet more proof that many elected officials don't actually care about protecting women. They've made "people must use the bathroom/locker room/dressing room that matches their birth gender" part of their platform with the justification that they are protecting women and children from sexual predators, but Trump openly invades the changing room and then brags about it, and his supporters are silent.
