Melania and Ivanka's plastic feminism cover up Trump's misogyny (Docile and Compliant Women!)
CNN ^ | 2-23-2017 | Jill Filipovic

Posted on 02/26/2017 4:36:06 PM PST by tcrlaf

In his press conference last week, in which President Trump ranted and raved that he wasn't ranting and raving, he answered a question about his wife, Melania. "That's what I call a very nice question," he said, apparently relieved to stop talking about his own policies, before saying the first lady feels very strongly about "women's issues" and "women's difficulties."

Trump didn't specify what these "issues" and "difficulties" might be. One presumes that, despite the phrasing, he probably meant things like equal pay and health care, and not what old men usually mean when they cryptically speak about our "difficulties."

He then swiftly regressed into thin-skinned indignation, complaining that despite the first lady's strength as an advocate for women, "she gets so unfairly maligned."

(SNIP)

Melania and Ivanka provide good cover for Trump's misogyny because they're palatable, conventionally feminine women: They're docile and poised, they don't make demands of men, and they are above all conventionally beautiful -- white and thin.

Now, Trump is using his wife and daughter's status as American women to feign concern for women while he actively makes life worse for women around the world. And Melania and Ivanka sit passively by.

The ‘Green-Eyed-Monster’ is veeeeerrrry ugly.

Let them rot from the inside out. They never advanced beyond Jr. High hatin’ on the cheerleaders and the Prom Queen.

Seriously pathetic.

Not exactly. Obama was into boys and males. He could care less for women and girls. The women in his life, including his evil mother, were male haters (God haters) and taught him to “hate” himself and crave real masculinity. His tranny nanny probably was molesting him the whole time as were the Madrassas in Indonesia-—training him for life.

Michelle is hardly feminine—no Marxists are—they hate God and the design of human bodies. Michelle might not even be a “woman’ as Joan Rivers stated right before she “died”. (Whoops). MO was a hater of feminine instincts-—loves killing babies and loves effeminate sodomites (like “her” husband).

There can be no comparison. President Trump is an Alpha Male and loves beautiful, feminine women as God designed, unlike the effeminized obama who “thinks” exactly liked a cowed, narcissistic woman and is hunting for a real masculine male to dominate-—lol-—good luck with that.

Dr. Oz: EEG Brain Scans Reveal Fake News Threatens Your Health

Observer ^ | 2/23/17 | Dr. Mehmet Oz

Posted on 2/23/2017, 9:55:44 AM by Mozilla

Our show will spotlight a first-of-its-kind social experiment to identify the dangerous and disruptive effect of fake news on our brains. We had high profile fake news creator Jestin Coler craft two fictional stories: one designed to prey on liberals and another on conservatives.
Women read the articles, not knowing they were fake, as neuropsychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen gathered quantitative EEG assessments.

The findings supported results of a functional MRI study recently published in Nature Scientific Reports, which showed how challenging a person’s political beliefs could activate the parts of the brain associated with emotion and self-identity.

A self-described liberal woman in our social experiment reported feeling sad after reading a fictional article on illegal immigrants, but revealed stronger irritation and anger when processing a fake story about a jailed climate change researcher. Simultaneous changes in her brain activity were also much greater when processing the climate change story and correlated with a strong emotional response of angst and fear.

A conservative woman demonstrated opposite reactions. For her, the article on illegal immigration elicited changes in brain activity changes that you would see during a physical threat.

The women were not told that the articles were fake until they were seated on stage. What happened next was startling. First, the women understandably, but awkwardly, tried to defend why they believed the false stories, rather than expressing frustration that they had been duped. This natural human tendency was highlighted by one woman’s comment that while the news was fake, it reinforced a truth she felt about our country—so the piece was tolerable.

Who is Jill Filipovic and why should anyone pay attention to her?

She used to write for the Guardian and Huff Po. That’s a resume enhancer, right there.

Filipovich is a hard-left man-hating ersatz (non-practicing) lawyer. Her work for the Guardian, Cosmo and CNN is all the indication needed to learn where she stands ideologically. Her slasher attacks on the Trump women is nothing short of abominable.

It is not America’s job to ‘make’ things better for women outside America around the world. We can only set an example and ask that others emulate it.

If feminists are so worried about other women in the world, I suggest they pick a country and move there and do something besides whine and moan from the comfort of their $100K a year apartments.

Nice feel good reports like this will surely get CNN back in the President’s favor, and have Sean Spicer calling on them first.

Jill’s “spanx” are showing in her photo — and looks like the heavy-duty type — quite popular with brides who gained a few pounds between their last wedding dress fitting and the actual day of the wedding.

The obsessed feminist witch, Filipovich, lives alone in a Brooklyn apartment amidst bottles of the favorite wine she promotes...and a three-footed cat.

Ain't life grand?

“IOW, they are pretty and classy..”

And, the newsmen of CNN will tell you about it as they flaunt their plastic masculinity.

Michelle’s ring fingers are longer than her index fingers.

Her shoulders are three times (not two and a half times) the width of her head.

That’s a man baby!

I’ve always thought it was pretty amazing that CNN stories emerge from the anus of their authors as ready made print on a page. Other peoples’ fecal matter is more amorphous and finds its way down more proper channels. Porcelain ones. That’s pretty much what I think of the quality/veracity of CNN, their writers, and their product.

Jill Filipovic is attacking the Trumps because her kiddie-diddling pals in the Pedo Alliance are worried that the Trumps are going to shut down their child-trafficking operations, and arrest them.

The Trumps are against such dirty dealings.
