I remember Ms Stahl from long ago and something happened to her nose? Is she a bot?

In my experience, The women most offended by “Mansplaining” are precisely the ones most in need of it.

We don’t have a “manterrupter” problem ... we have a “newsplaining” problem.

Today’s so-called journalists do not ask questions soliciting information. They frame a narrative and then expect the interviewee to respond. When Leslie Stahl expressed surprise that VP Pence wife Karen was a teacher and teaching in person now, an actual interviewer’s next question would have been something like ...... how are things going at her school during Covid .... instead Leslie Stahl just went back to her prearranged interrogation. I saw this in the unedited version that Trump released. I wonder if Pence’s statement about Karen being a teacher even made it to last night’s broadcast.

Social science studies suggest that men interrupt women 33 percent more than they interrupt other men.


And you don’t cite the studies describing just how much more verbose many women are when they talk? How about the common female trait of just wanting someone to listen, not to provide answers and suggestions?

Was the interview supposed to be social, or did it have a point?

That quite aside from the actual content, and failure of Stahl to even be aware of many of the subjects she tried to correct the President on.

**********************

2 Cor 10:3-6

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

Where the 'study' that shows men will interrupt a 'persistant' , uninformed, one-side person loaded with GOTHCA questions more often than a reasonable person?

My experience in meetings is that women just will not stop talking, and you HAVE TO interrupt occasionally.

Listen to women converse. They talk over each other constantly.

I’ve grown to like email and text messaging. I can actually get my point across that way.

Her work has appeared in Reuters, Lapham's Quarterly, Salon, Quartz, Vice, HuffPost and others

Her "work", is that what they're calling nonsensical blather these days?

We men like to get to the point. And if one of those dreadful meetings is required, we want it to be productive. Ideally, one person says something, another builds on it or counters it quickly, blah, blah, blah. And sometimes you’re going to interrupt each other, especially if one is being verbose. Many women don’t like that.

I would have walked out after her 2nd interruption—and I am female.

Just her tone of voice was disrespectful.

“manterrupter problem”

Hello...The proper role of an interviewer is to ask questions, and then wait for the answers. We’re trying to find out what the interviewee thinks and knows.

It’s not a lecture; it’s not a speech; it’s not a debate. It’s not a battle between boys and girls. It’s not yet another venue for the interviewer to spout off their opinion. Leslie failed, over and over and over again, to do her job. If she wanted to let us know what *she* thinks, there was no need to invite Trump to sit there next to her. But she knows that if he wasn’t there, almost no one would tune in to listen.
