Okay so the other day I was thinking to myself, "I wonder how people are still able to support Hillary after all that we have learned about her?" . . .
So I went over and asked if the things that bothered me about Hillary was making any of them second guess their support. I mentioned her use of Rovian political tactics, her lack of charisma, that much of her popularity was reflected from her husbands popularity, and talked about her creepy-ass laugh. I thought that would open a dialogue where we could logically discuss the pro and cons of both candidates and then I could convince them of the error of their ways with my superior grasp of the facts. (Okay I may have come off as a little condescending.)
But what greeted my comments was completely unexpected and left little room for compromise or discussion. They took my comments as anti-feminist and anti-woman. WTF?I am a guy who held a sign supporting ERA in the seventies. Most of the jobs I have had have been in workplaces that were predominantly female, elementary schools, child care centers, summer camps etc.. I have never treated any woman as an object even when I worked as a bouncer in a strip club. (It is a long story but I was desperate for a job.)
One woman went so far as to say that her ovaries were screaming at me.
I did not even know that was possible!
