Why does being a woman make a difference? Perhaps if the woman was a decent human being I could see your point, but I think that this thing winning the nomination is a slap in the face to women, not something to be proud of.
How can anyone call this an historical moment when she stole the moment by rigging the nomination for herself?
“Why does being a woman make a difference?”
I graduated with an engineering degree in the early 80’s. I was educated well and honed my skills well over the years. But being accepted into a man’s world was not easy. I managed to get there and have a lot of respect among my coworkers, more respect than my male coworkers get. It took hard work, many hours more than my male coworkers had to spend, to get that respect. Not that I needed to work more hours to get the same amount of work done correctly, but it was to gain the same amount of respect. I’m 35 years into my career and the incoming calls don’t stop. I’ve worked hard for the respect I get, much harder than others that got it automatically.
“Perhaps if the woman was a decent human being I could see your point,”
She’s not a decent human being, period.
” but I think that this thing winning the nomination is a slap in the face to women, not something to be proud of.”
I never said I was proud of “this thing” Hillary. I said I was proud of the moment. She is a slap in the face to women and she’s nothing to be proud of. But the MOMENT is something I felt pride for.
Sorry if you guys can’t understand the difference between feeling pride for the moment that a woman is nominated for a major party’s run for presidency and that that same person is embarrassed that Hillary was the one that got there....
And if you can’t understand the difference, maybe you should make a try at it. You might even help our party win the next election.
