Yeah, Great Blog…

If there’s one thing this presidential campaign has brought to light, it’s that America is sexist. Now, we women knew that already because we have to deal with sexism as part of our day-to-day lives, but I can’t tell you how many men I know (my boyfriend included) that stubbornly insist that sexism is a thing of the past.

Just to put it out there: I don’t like Hillary Clinton. In fact, I hate her. I’m glad she’s not going to win the democratic primary, because she’s corrupt and her ideas would destroy America (okay… next time I’ll tell you how I really feel). 

So you understand that I’m not a fan.

But stuff like this t-shirt really makes me sick. It’s one thing to disagree with her as a politician, but to attack her because she’s a woman — and we’ve seen so much of that in the past year — is point-black unacceptable. Why does she get picked on for what she wears? Why is she called a “thing,” and “the right man for the job… Not,” and, most shockingly and important, why is she repeatedly attacked with nasty language, as you see above, that attacks her femininity, and not her occupation as a politician?

You don’t see anyone calling Obama a manwhore or McCain a gigolo… why are they calling Hillary a whore (and worse)?
