What I Find Creepy
Is implying that Hillary Clinton lacks positive female attributes. She has birthed and raised a beautiful daughter. She has paid dearly for being a woman of a particular generation and within a particular power structure (if you doubt the cost, look to George Stephanopoulos' own misogynistic-yet-insider rantings). She has taken the fall for her husband's sexism, yet if she'd left him, she would be the one to suffer profesionally. And, oh yeah, she couldn't run for this office when she was Obama's age because she is a woman. And, oh yeah, there's that 30 years of woman-and-child-centered advocacy.
All that, the good efforts and the bad breaks, and you are basing your commentary on shallow mannerisms.
And then you don't even address Clinton and gender in your follow-up.
Creepy. And not a little sexist, all the nattering about "gender versus biology" aside.
And that's what's wrong with the article.
