How Much Hillary-Hatred Is Based Off The Fact That She's A Woman?

[THUNDER HANDS]

If you take into account the myriad of reasons people either don't support her, don't care for her, or just downright hate her - how much of that do you think is based off the fact that she's a woman?

1. Wow...so many votes, no comments...well...

If we take Nancy Pelosi's elevation to Speaker as a hint, it seems that most of the negative response to her (from the Democratic side) arose after she failed to lead strongly in redressing the issues of most significance to Democrats. Prior to that, I seem to recall that her elevation to Speaker was viewed as a positive thing, partly because she was a woman.

Granted, the presidency is different.

I think there must be some degree of misogyny regarding Senator Clinton...it would be natural, unfortuneately...but I think it has more to do with the fact that she has been in America's field of vision for so long, and associated with so many high-profile events and issues, has made so many public statements, and had so many questionable activities associated with her (even if unproven) that sits at the base of it.

Plus, I believe there is an element which see her as an extension of her husband, and that what has been termed a sort of sense of "coronation" has surrounded her race, up until now.

And she is a strong woman, and some people are definitely put off by that.

Just my uneducated $.02
