No more lysol or cascade
We want to score Touchdowns
And walk in the parade

This seems like a lot of work by the administration in order to gather all the women in one place to ask them “Please, stop letting yourself get raped by the football players.”

I voted for Stein in 2012 (it was more a vote for The Green Party than Stein to be honest) and I was really hoping that if the Greens were going to try and continue making inroads to become a viable 3rd option that they would have moved past Stein and found a more appealing candidate.

Jesus.

I don’t even get the connection. Why is praising a black MAN’s speech a nullification against accusations of sexism?

You can say what you said. It’s when you start using words like shrill, nagging, etc. that you’re entering dangerous waters because we rarely lob similar criticisms against men. For example, Trumps speaking voice aint that great, but other than mocking his pronunciation of huge, we don’t see that in the media much.

I am positively going to have to incorporate ‘Vagina-American’ to my vocabulary! Thanks! :-)

“Shrill” means “Spoken by a woman who is daring to challenge a man”

Screw the tone of voice, I want someone in charge of the nuclear codes who knows how to say and spell nuclear. I survived 8 years of “nu-cu-lar”, they’ll survive 8 years of a president without a penis.

“Robotic” and “insincere” are both perfectly fine criticisms. So, in fact, are Sullivan’s “pedestrian” and “uninspiring”. People are free to disagree with you, but those are terms that are routinely applied to male speakers as well as female.

Like these fuckers didn’t elect George W. Bush - twice!- with that country elf voice of his. All he did was inspire me to want to throw books at him, yet they still made him president. GTFO with this crap.

Do people really not understand what the term “shrill” means? If anything, I think that Hillary’s speaking voice is a bit dull and flat. It lacks the vibrancy of the Obamas, for example.

You can address it, but address it in a way that isn’t sexist. The criticisms launched by Hume and Sullivan both fell into the trap of criticizing her for things that, if they were coming from someone with the bass provided by having an adam’s apple and more testosterone, would have been considered perfectly fine.

You know the first time I have ever seen her act like the person that people have met her describe her as, rather than the persona that she's been forced to create is when all those balloons came down from the celling? Her simple unguarded joy made me burst into tears.

I definitely think Sullivan fell into the trap of double standards when it comes to men and women speaking.

Get used to it. They’re going to complain about her voice, her tone, her not smiling enough, her face, her hair, her clothes for the next 8 years. But not because they’re sexist or anything.

Bizarre Hillary attacks won’t go away in November. Just ask Obama.

That’s what I laugh about. Have these fuckers ever heard Donald Trump speak? Or listened to recordings of some of our previous presidents? JFK sounded like he swallowed the city of Boston and a silver spoon. And Lincoln allegedly had an awful speaking voice.

Short answer: the problem is that voice comes out of a Vagina-American.

I read a NY post article that that broke down the cadence of her speech pattern and died a bit inside, the "best" part was that the author was like "I'm not sexist, I'm just honest! I said yesterday Obamas speech was good and if hers was I would have too!" It was literally the "I'm not biased I have (minority)…
