10. "Ann the Man" is deemed disrespectful |

to transgendered persons, and I agree with that (just to note that issue).
Good post, to the OP. If HRC had run a decent campaign and shown respect to her opponents and her party, it would be a lot easier to pick out the real sexism from the kind of legitimate criticism that is described above. But unfortunately, she has made that almost impossible because of what she has done and said.
Here's a question: is it sexist to criticize/attack conservative women in general (like Coulter, Malkin et al) *because* of their political/cultural positions? Me, I think not. As with African-Americans who vote republican, I view them as traitors to the best interests of their group.
