My answer is that people want to be taken seriously at job interviews and they also want to be taken seriously at protest marches. I’m very much beginning to question your cognitive abilities at this point, because you should be able to understand basic analogies.

Depends. Do you want your protest to be taken seriously or not? If you do, then that is at least one similarity to a job interview.

Fair point. Pence has terrible policies, but at least he’s not a demagogue.

Let me ask you this. If you were going into a job interview, with the intent of creating a positive image of yourself as an intelligent, professional person with good ideas, would you wear footie pajamas with rainbow unicorns printed on them? Or would you wear something grown up and professional looking? It’s the same…

Which is actually worse because Pence is far more insidious. But at least we wouldn’t have to see the orange asshole puckering his stupid mouth all over the media anymore.

We can only hope.

You don’t think he’s going to claim that anyway? He’s a delusional sociopath, he’s not going to be swayed by these hats.

Funny, because at least 28 other people agree with me based on the stars on my original post. So yeah, it’s not just me.

They are called pussy hats. As in pussy cat, with cat ears, to refer to Trump’s pussy statement. They are in fact fucking ears.

Knitted hats with pussycat ears, however, are baby clothing.

The movement isn’t silly. Quite the opposite. The hats, however, are goofy looking as fuck.

I’m a woman who thinks that women don’t need to be cutesy or childlike to get attention.

I know what they think they’re accomplishing. My point is that they are not accomplishing that by making themselves look absurd.

Solidarity also =/= telling other women they can’t find fault with the way you’re protesting. You might find this surprising, but feminists are not monolithic.

So why do they need to wear a baby hat to do it?

I mean, could you maybe just speak out against his bad behavior? Wouldn’t that be more effective than making yourself look silly?

The march is exactly for him, otherwise it wouldn’t be held the day after his inauguration.

And you enjoy dying on a metaphorical hill that futhers the infantilizing of women. Maybe journal about it using your Bic For Her pen.

And is he going to not be a sexual predator because he saw you and your friends wearing dorky hats?

I mean, Trump isn’t going to take any of you seriously either, so.
