So what lessons have we learned about 2017 America?

[JHan]

-Boast about grabbing women by the pussy, insult and belittle them and you can still be President of the United States.

-Sexually harass women at work, be a sexist junkhead, and even if you're let go you can still get millions in a sweet payoff.

1. So messed up.

I do feel that some people close to me did come closer to recognizing how deeply oppressive we are in this country. They are people who were able to dismiss much of it before. I made sure to attach it to me directly. That tactic got through to some in my circle.

2. thanks for doing your bit, and we all need to. Hard to rejoice too much over Bill's exit..

Fox News only buckled under pressure from advertisers. It boiled down to money, not principles.

( and this isn't to take away from the advocacy efforts of fabulous people like Letitia James: she rocks!)

7. Pretty much

Feminists have been screaming in the wind for decades. We gain, we lose, we get called "pearl clutchers" for bringing up cultural aspects of sexism, like say, rape culture. Thus is the end result of both gaining and loss.
