But, that has nothing to do with her being a woman. And....Donny JR is an idiot. I agree, I don't get the hats. The same can be said for the former Milwaukee sheriff (I can't think of his name and don't care to look). Link to comment

BigRedBuster Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Wow.....it’s always interesting when people write a tweet like that claiming someone else needs “psychiatric and psychological” help. 4 Link to comment

zoogs Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Yea, my goodness There was a tweet that had the video of it, but I couldn't find it earlier to post. Link to comment

Danny Bateman Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Every interaction Trump has with anyone makes me feel weird. He's just got a very odd dialect and word choice. I'm thinking some of it is age-related... if you watch clips when he was younger, he was much more articulate and coherent sounding. Now it's like he's grasping for the right words but can't find them, so he just wedges whatever is available in his limited RAM into sentences and they wind up sounding not quite right. I'm assuming some of it also stems from the fact he's spent his entire adult lift talking to most people not in a peer-to-peer sense but more frequently in a boss-subordinate sense. 1 Link to comment

The Dude Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Sexism is a real thing. "Mansplaining" is a flawed concept. Those two ideas aren't mutually exclusive 1 Link to comment
Enhance Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 An interesting take on the phrase 'mansplaining.' Quote One of the problems with simplistic terms like this, however, is that their ease of use and humour risk diluting any message. They become an easy-to-mouth solution for a more complicated problem, and this one quickly took on more pejorative meanings. It became a go-to phrase for mumbled or garbled explanations and the trump card in arguments, but this sort of overuse just desensitises us to the real issue which is that, yes, some men really do talk down to women. Quote It reeks of gender essentialism – the idea that specific physical, social and cultural traits are native to a particular gender. It may be satisfying, refreshing, even empowering, to give men a hard time, but I can’t help imagine how I would feel if faced with similar accusations – “womanterrupting” or “womansplaining” for example. It would be degrading. LINK Link to comment
