I have to wonder if he meant “culture” instead of “civilization”. Part of it is the effects of breaking free of colonialism and the corrupt leaders put in their place, and part is due to cultures—in many parts of the world, not just Africa—-that value women (and sometimes men) on how many children they have. Now,…

Oh, et puis quel connard que M. Trump! Excusez-nous, la France!

It’s a power thing absolutely. He seems to have a compulsive need to humiliate and insult others and take them down to elevate himself. It’s the mark of a bully.

You’re just jelly that an obese 70 year old man-baby hasn’t opined on your figure while his rheumy eyes take in every inch of you.*

I think to Trump all physical interaction is a power struggle, one he must win. If he doesn’t dare to crack a woman’s finger-bones with his tiny hands, he’ll humiliate her before the entire world with an insult disguised as a sexist, harassing compliment.

A million to one that El Naranja is not only usually being his skeezy self but this is also an attempt at petty pay-back for Macron showing him up on that handshake about a month ago and destroying El Naranja’s fragile-ass masculinity. Basically, Trump is (poorly attempting) to hit on “Macron’s woman” in order to…

So vile. The *only* value a woman has to him is serving men in some way... sexually or otherwise. Just like with the lady he accosted recently at the white house, “such a lovely smile, she must take good care of you.” It is bad enough that he makes completely inappropriate comments to beautiful women, but I can’t even…

It’s like he’s complimenting someone on a race horse or a pure bred dog or some shit.

Because men can be fat and gross but women must always be fuckable or they might as well not exist.

In the first clip Brigitte Trognee (Macron’s wife uses her own name) seems to be doing her best to hold him at arm’s length to avoid being touched up by Trump

Yep. Word for word have had catcallers say this to me, and now it’s out of the mouth of the US president to the first lady of France. Just so we’re all on the same page, Trump has as much self control as your average catcaller on the street. But, hey. Her emails.

I want some seriously horrid disease to find its way DEEP into that shrived up nub he calls a penis and eat his rancid ass alive from the inside out. Screaming in agony at every moment.

Watching it turns my stomach. I’m sure I’m not the only woman here who knows how it feels when men look at you like that, you can feel it it, like their eyes are crawling all over your skin. And it’s the President of the US doing it. To the President of France’s wife.

When men say things like this to me in a professional setting, I act confused and make an awkward attempt to return the compliment. Like, in this situation, I would furrow my brow and shrug my shoulders before saying, “oh, um, yeah, you too.” Just to help illuminate what a ridiculous comment it is. It makes them feel…

Look, he didn’t grab her by the pussy so I guess there’s the Presidential pivot we’ve all been looking for.

I’m really beginning to think Joe & Mika are on to something. “Lack of restraint” and “meaningless repetition of words” are two of the signs of Alzheimer’s.

That’s absolutely what I do when I meet a colleague’s husband. I hold his hands and ogle him while I say: Look at you hottie, you are in good shape. Then I turn to my colleague and say: He’s in such good shape...so handsome (still ogling). This is completely professional behavior in case you did not know.

Yes to all of this. When I hear undergraduates joining Greek organizations to get ahead, I think of the thousands of other students nationwide in the same organizations thinking they’ll get the same advantage. It’s a pyramid scheme. The only bros I knew who were actually pulling strings to get jobs were those who were…

I’m a graduate (PhD) of an Ivy League where over 60% of the student body participates in Greek life. It was disgusting on so many levels. I had students who admitted outright that they weren’t able to study everyday because of their duties as pledges. They thought they would get more career opportunities down the line…

Yeah nah, there are frats that pay just enough lip service to the idea of service that they skate by pointing at party houses and braying “at least we’re not those guys!!”
