Hillary Clinton answers a question about men and women splitting the bill on a date

[ProudToBeLiberal]

Dating as a feminist can be tough. Do you think that men and women should split the bill on a date?

Look, I think splitting the cost on a date has to be evaluated on a kind of case-by-case basis. You know, many years ago I remember doing that, and I know a lot of young people who even today do because they kind of consider more casual dates, group dates, to be ones where everybody pays their fair share, but I think you also have to be alert to the feelings of the person that you are dating. If it's important to that person to either split in the beginning of the relationship, or for one or the other of you to pay for whatever combination of reasons, you know, you just have to evaluate that and take it into account. So I don't think there is a hard and fast rule, at least that I have ever seen followed in every instance.

1. I have a splitting headache now. nt

3. Me too. Simple question, 75 words later and no answer.

It was a yes or no question.

It could have been a one word answer, maybe some expanding on that answer, but in typical fashion her mouth started working while her brain started thinking about how to evade the answer, impress the right people, and make herself look good.

Right?

2. Clinton is a Policy wonk.

She understands that a simple, yes or no answer level too much wiggle room for critics.
