As a 60 year old white businesswoman, the mother of a son & a daughter, I observe sexism working both ways.
I am concerned about both women AND men being “liberated” from expectations & stereotypes.
Both sides are pressured in countless ways & short-changed in life, due to the messages we receive growing up and later at work.
As someone who has been a stay home mom AND a working mother, I know that neither role is easy or ideal. Neither is being a father & a worker.
I long ago tired of feminism beating up on men. The attitudes of the shoulder pad feminists, my generation, seem so out of date, such old news.
Hillary is the worst-case, old style woman who made it based on her husband’s connections. Phuleeze!
I lost all interest in her when she tolerated Bill’s indiscretions & defended him.
In similar circumstances, I went out & made my own way in life. Out of self-respect!
Voting for Hillary out of some sense of “voting for the female” is about the dumbest thing yet.
Her campaign is not impressive at all.
Give me a really GOOD woman leader, and I will be thrilled to support her, but no way am I voting for someone just because it is a “she.”
I do have many friends who are doing just that, and I am shocked by their shallowness.
