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

Posted on 10/16/2021 2:39:56 PM PDT by simpson96

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?

Truth be known, she did it because she is such an ugly -itch, both inside and out.

Actually, I would rather that hildebeast live to see her own death! Just so that she can finally see how insignificant she is and how the masses would celebrate her demise.

Yeah, there is a bias I have internalized about having some particular women in power. And I have the same internalized bias about having some particular men in power. Namely women and men who sell out those they are supposed to serve and take graft for favors. You would be very familiar with the process Hillary, you had a scam charity set up and a personal email server to facilitate the corruption. Its that corruption stuff I have an internalized bias against. And God willing that internalized bias will never ever go away.

Don’t think it would have been much better if Jorge Arbusto Sr. won a 2nd term. We needed Pat Buchanan.

Not when you have men dressing as women and taking their trophies from them.

Hillary has always been a strong defender of women’s rights. Just ask Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey, and Juanita Broaddrick.

Anyone who saw the disgraceful mess she was while “representing” us as Sec of State (or more recently her waddle along the beach in the Hamptons) knows she doesn’t give a rat’s ass how she looks.

She’s right. There will be true gender equality in Heaven, and she’s not headed there.

Not me. She is like Prometheus chained to his rock, having his liver gnawed out by vultures only to have it grow back at night. She lost to President Trump and can’t get over it. It has poisoned her entire existence and eats at her incessantly. I hope it lasts a long time.
