Remember that whole “they hate us for our freedom?” Yeah, that’s what’s actually happening here. If fear of violence dissuades people from doing or speaking about abortion, their violence is working and is curtailing our freedom.

Horvath-Cosper has the support of many abortion doctors.

They’re PUBLIC BATHROOMS FFS.

Do they really not see how creepy this makes them look? And do they not see that they probably could have done this anywhere because there isn’t security standing in front of the women’s bathrooms?

When asked for comment Carly giggled. It sounded like twinkling little bells. Suddenly the reporters forgot what they were asking, and inexplicably began to think of their happiest memory of childhood. It felt like something was in there with them, something in their heads. Someone. Then they felt the memory being…

It’s more like “If Hillary were a man with those same qualifications, she’d be predicted to win by a landslide.”

Ooh— I got one!

A preview of the next six months can be summed up in the image of Donald Trump standing behind a podium, gesticulating wildly and shouting “SHE HAS A VAGINA, SO DISGUSTING, SHE HAS A VAGINA, SO DISGUSTING” over and over again.

Then the troglodytes will complain about how she set gender relations back like they’re complaining about Obama setting back race relations. No, race and gender relations have always sucked, just ask a POC and/or a woman; having a non-white man as President just brought racial issues to the forefront and made it…

I think it’s a preview of the next eight years. If Clinton wins, there’s going to be a staggering amount of sexism directed towards her. Just like all of the racism that’s been directed towards Obama.

You know, every so often, I engage in a little debate with someone who holds views diametrically opposed to mine. I keep thinking that as long as the debate is respectful and thoughtful, we will both learn something from each other and walk away, if not changed, at least informed.

You are so wrong. I have seen plenty of under-qualified men get promoted over women over the past 25 years of my career. Admittedly anecdotal, so let`s look at the data, shall we?

Since you’re in the black, anyway, I’ll try to explain it: you say you don’t care, and so do the majority of people, yet white men get picked over and over again. Studies show that people in general - ones who aren’t particularly sexist - consider women to be less capable than men. When women are announced to make 50%…

What you don’t seem to realize is that there is no single “most qualified” person for cabinet positions. There are many people with very similar backgrounds and qualifications. We aren’t going to sacrifice qualifications and experience in the cabinet in favor of diversity. We’re going to have both.

This, right here is what I wish I could write when I have that rage vein in my head pulsing a drum beat. Well done.

I bet you’re so not racist that you don’t even see color.

Aw, the “you don’t know me” defense. I can read your words. They’re pretty clear. No one ever brings up “qualifications” unless someone is promising to hire women or people of color. Open your eyes, push back against what you’ve been socially conditioned to think, and improve. There’s nothing wrong with recognizing…

You think you’re not saying it in a coded way, but you are wrong. You’ve just internalized the code in such a way that you’re now blind to it.

But you know as well as I do that when people disregard “race, sex, or any other consideration” they hire white men. That’s what that language means. That’s what you’ve absorbed, whether you want to admit it or not. That’s how you fully justify all white male cabinets, boards, workplaces. That’s how you justify sexism…

That is a bullshit thinly veiled excuse for sexism.
