Hillary Clinton: I won’t live to see true gender equality
UK Evening Standard ^ | 10/01/2021 | Laura Harding

Hillary Clinton has said she does not think she will live to see “true equality” between men and women.

The former US presidential candidate, 73, said the “so-called double standard” still exists and women in power are continuously scrutinised.

Speaking to historian Mary Beard on the BBC’s Inside Culture, Mrs Clinton said she calculated she had spent a total of 25 days getting dressed and having her hair and make up done over the two years she was running for president against Donald Trump.

She said: “I did that because it’s one of the aspects of the so-called double standard.

“You know, men take a shower, shake their heads and go out and men come in all sizes.

“You have a Prime Minister who never brushes his hair. That’s perfectly charming, you know.

“And so part of the challenge is for women, you don’t want to spend your time being turned into a caricature.

“You want to be yourself, be who you are, convey that to people.

“But in order for them to pay attention, not saying, you know, “Mildred, what has she done to her hair? Or George I hate the way she looks,” you do have to somehow find that sweet spot. You will never please everybody.”

Addressing Beard, she continued: “I don’t think either of us will live to see true equality, because we have to deal simultaneously with significant institutional systemic reforms and internal attitudinal bias that both men and women have about women in power.

“And so when a woman, a young woman, is putting herself into politics, the questions are, well, why isn’t she married? Why doesn’t she have children?

“If she has children, why isn’t she taking care of them?

Well, you know she didn’t pay for getting her hair and make-up done. Somebody else paid for that. And whoever did pay for it, should have asked for their money back a long time ago.

Well Hillary, since we’ve established you won’t live to see your definition of equality, why not just go now?

I thank God each and every day that this insufferable harlot lost her one and only opportunity to grab the brass ring. She would have been a disaster as president and as bad as things are today with a senile village idiot occupying the White House things would be worse if she had won.

She should be more concerned about men pretending to be women. They are the real threat to women’s advancement

I hope she won’t live to see Trump won in 2024. The quicker this evil bitch expires, the better off the country will be.

You have men who have no idea what's going on and no control over bodily functions who can still be president, but when a woman get tossed in the back of the SUV like a side of beef and suddenly she's too decrepit to be elected.

I wonder if she realizes how many people hope to live long enough to see her either in jail or hung from a lamppost.

It would be fine with a lot of us if gender equality happens soon and that fat assed pig isn’t alive to see it.
