Reply #27: Um, the point is that misogynists DON'T criticize her policies - they criticize her femininity [View All]

Did you even read the OP? It's not about "Hillary," although being a woman who happens to be a major contender for president, most of the ready examples of public misogyny revolve around her. The POINT of the OP is that these misogynists AREN'T questioning Clinton's policies, campaign style, or anything of substance. They're critiquing her voice, her physical appearance, her very womanhood, as a roundabout way of minimizing her or making her out to be less than serious. If you can't see the difference, then you're just allowing your blind hatred of her to dismiss this excellent and insightful post, which of course isn't really about Hillary Clinton but rather about the pervasive societal pooh-poohing of any woman who deigns to play on the same field as men.

FTR I agree with you about Clinton. I can't stand her (or Bill either really). But when she gets attacked as a woman, and not as a candidate, you bet I'll defend her.
