114. This endorsement had absolutely nothing to do with misogyny.
In exactly the same way that Hillary's labor endorsements had nothing to do with racism.

As to my avatar, the irony in you pointing it out is that the Dalai Lama has most certainly been subjected to intolerance you probably can't even fathom. Yet, he continues to smile and never plays the victim.

You do no favors to feminism with this line of logic that you're trying to put forth. In fact, it would take a quite bigoted person to perceive intolerance in others that isn't apparent. Or do you think that calling the leaders of this particular labor organization sexist is fair play given that you have no idea what their particular motivations were.
