The fact that “bitch” has become both an epithet and an honorific for Mrs. Clinton has turned out to be one of the least weird things about this election year. In a race that is indelibly colored by gender and sexism, it’s also potentially transformative. Few of the women who choose to venture into the male-dominated sphere of American politics are hothouse flowers, of course, but Mrs. Clinton’s long journey to the center of presidential contention mirrors a larger impatience with a time-honored tradition of going along to get along. This is not just in politics either: From film stars to athletes to teenage activists, outspoken women from all arenas are increasingly visible, much to the concern of sexists everywhere.

For more than 20 years in American politics, Mrs. Clinton has embodied what we might call Classic Bitch. She’s perceived as an interloper who challenges or threatens masculinity, entitlement and a status-quo worldview; she’s the scandal magnet who can seem as heartless and venal as any old-boy’s-club member. Worst of all, she’s the woman who accepts that she will be disliked and carries on anyway.

Think about it. Hillary having a hot flash with her finger on the button.
A shaky finger...

True...anyone remember that book ‘Whiny Little Bitch’?
Haven’t heard of it.
“the bitch who sighed and brushed invisible lint from her shoulders while being grilled on Benghazi,”
Americans died and Hillary lied, then brushed them off.
There’s no word in the English language to describe her.
A “thing”?
“Worst of all, she’s the woman who accepts that she will be disliked and carries on anyway.”
This Freudian slip, left-hand complement, in its attempt bolster Hillary, is an EPIC FAIL:
The NYT’s is printing articles about how much Hillary is DISLIKED.
Hilarious.
???
Did you read the article?
He's turning her being a bitch into a STRENGTH - into something she has to act as in order to move in a male dominated world.
Not only is her bitchiness a strength, it's a badge of honor - it's 'lipstick on a pig".
Article needs a BARF alert...
Is the author dreaming or lying? The Hildebeest doesn't accept it at all. She's no Sarah Palin. That's her problem. She seems to spend every working hour plotting revenge on all the people who refuse to pretend to like her. That's when she's not figuring out how to defraud the American taxpayers (whom she hates) by collecting bribes from foreigners to undermine her country.
She's the opposite of the happy warrior--the type who can have a drink with his political opponents and sincerely pray for them. For the 'beest, it's all personal. Her problem is that she's too much like a woman. In this case, a very bad woman. She seems possessed. It would be easier to feel sorry for her if she weren't so dangerous.
Classic
It came out during Zero’s first term...Amazon still carries it.
The nyt has no credibility on any subject whatever.
I am one of the Deplorables.
Your comment is more descriptive of Clinton than you may think. You're saying she's a "bitch" with a capital "C".
Missed that inaccuracy as well (didn't read that far). What she threatens is women and children--life itself. She praises the people who cut up babies and sloppily kill women, in fact. That's why real men don't like her.
Great Britain had a wonderful leader in Margaret Thatcher. Our first woman president should be of that caliber.
Yes - everyone who opposes Hillary is an evil sexist.
*Rolls Eyes*
In what way? No one is talking about her gender. Even she has backed off using her gender.
Good question
Usually it’s Hildabeast, PIAPS, Cankles.
Now, if they had described her as a "broad," that would be another story. She's a broad who's accomplished nothing.
Over the past 20 years, the only time I’ve heard a powerful woman referred to as a “bitch” is by other women. The male underlings respect her authority try to meet expectations, while the female underlings gossip and connive.
