When Pence or President Trump went to speak anywhere they made a big deal out of stopping them and protesting against them.

How does get away with being there and how can she say the women graduates are “midshipMEN?”

This is a disgrace that she spoke there.

My granddaughter just finished her first year at th USNA and worked as an usher at the graduation. Men and women collectively are midshipman.

The suffix “-man” means “person”. The word “woman” means “weaver person”.
But we say “woman” and not “woperson” and “human” and not “huperson”.
