Or some women (like myself) might feel that Sanders would be a better candidate to address women’s issues in addition to the many other aspects of our government. Really frustrating as a feminist to be told by other so-called feminists what my opinions are and where they derive from. It’s so belittling. Much like…

a bunch of older white ladies who have done their best to pave the way for an easier, freer existence for the white women

I don’t think that’s quite it. Because policy wise, I don’t see much difference between Hillary and Bernie on women’s issues. They’re essentially identical in supporting women’s right to choose, equal pay, paid leave, etc.

In some ways, I think the second-wavers are afraid of this new wave of feminism, because we have broader interests than just women’s rights and women’s progress. Feminism has morphed into a multi-issue alliance of women, men, and everyone in between. That’s not super recognizable to the women who paved the way to get…

I will vote for whoever wins the Democratic primary, but watching folks like Madeline Albright and Henry Kissinger heap praise upon Clinton is really getting to me lately. Of all my concerns with her potential presidency, the one that worries me the most might be her long history of hawkish and interventionist foreign…

I think the messaging needs to change for some of these older feminists.

I’m not American, so I’m free to like Bernie without raising Gloria Steinam’s ire.

I guess Gloria Steinam was right when she said some Bernie voters were just boy crazy!

I think my love for grumpy old liberal men is surpassed only by my hatred of grumpy old conservative men.
