That’s all fine and good, but that respect that you want for your opinions? Other people want that too. And there are lots of good, valid reasons that people are not cool with a cishet white dude tying a woman’s worth to her being a mother. Telling them that they’re hurting the cause by voicing that opinion is…

I am being such a star creep right now but every one of your comments is speaking right to my soul.

Me reading this post

Yeah...if women telling you that something is sexist is “picking a fight” that causes you to rethink your ally status, I don’t know that you’re being the best ally.

YES!

Yeah, Barbara Mikulski has been a badass in government for 40 years and has no kids, so the motherhood bit had me rolling my eyes. But the overall enthusiastic support is finally nice to hear.

Or rural Pennsylvania, or upstate New York, or anywhere in the Pacific northwest that isn’t Portland, Eugene, or Seattle...

My bad, I guess in my fourth cycle of working on political campaigns I’ll try to pay more attention. Your condescension is much appreciated.

Yeah, I find it gross that someone whose reputation for duplicity is tied more closely to her gender than to reality being held to a different standard. I expect that crap from Trump, and it was a disappointing, desperate last gasp from the end of the Sanders campaign during the primary.

I have literally never heard of demands for this level of transparency, and it comes on the heels of thousands of her emails being released and pored over by millions. I just find it gross that all of these new demands and requirements are being made of (not coincidentally) the first female nominee, just like it was…

So this is kind of embarrassing for you...it seems like you don’t know that she’s...a woman. And therefore responsible for all evil b/c Eve.

Yep. Still unacceptable.

The issue is why should she be held to a bullshit double standard of transparency and scrutiny to which literally NO ONE ELSE running for this office has ever been held? Especially while her rapist, xenophobe opponent won’t even release his tax returns!

That is so touching. I’m happy that his home is now occupied by someone who appreciates all of his work!

We had a situation like that at our apartment, and when we told the previous tenant that he needed to do change of address, he did it in the wrong direction. So then we were getting ALL of his mail. Ridiculous.

Okay, this was honestly so great that I’m now terrified you’re going to announce you’re leaving Jezebel tomorrow and break my heart. This article is everything I love about Jezebel.

I think the idea was that the garrote was part of the cover up by the parents.

Ditto, as a permagray

No. No. Please tell me that you have not actually encountered a feel the Johnson hashtag.

His last name should be a decent indication of why allegedly progressive Bernie voters would be throwing their support behind him...
