Can I say how proud I am to be a woman!

Hopefully no one will take offense at this.. and no I am not voting with my ovaries.. but I really was so proud to see Hillary and Elizabeth taking it to Donald Trump today.. Just listening to Lawrence O'Donnell show and they were discussing the optics of today.. and I am a very happy camper..

simply isn't seeing the full picture.

She was clearly the strongest candidate of them all, the most knowledgeable, the most prepared, and yet, as a woman, she was stigmatized by the Republicans, the media, and sadly, by some in our own party. And yet she fought through it and overcame it all.

Damn right I'm proud.

Hillary.

Add Liz Warren to the mix and his teeny balls are shriveled up into oblivion.

Trump is used to treating women as receptacles. A doormat that he can wipe his feet on.

Once "his" women reach their sell-by date, he throws them overboard and goes trolling for his next hooker to marry.

I'm not voting with my now-inactive ovaries either, but I'm glad I have them and believe that the historical hegemony of "testosterone" has seen its day.
