who became a Mister Mom in the 90s. A sexist who has supported his wife's career and helped her get the pay she deserves. A sexist who has raised a daughter who believes she can do anything a man can do and a son that respects women, especially his mom. Yep sexist indeed......Hillary is not going to help any of my family, Bernie would at least try.........

That doesn't mean you are a sexist. It means that sexism was seen by some in your postings.

(19,877 posts)So you can drop the sexist screed and assumptions that we only care about gender.
Hillary has policy proposals, union endorsements, party endorsements, endorsements from civil rights hero's, and experience putting her foot deep inside Republican assholes. She has stood face to face with foreign governments and excoriated them for human rights abuses and stood up for diplomacy around the globe. She is supremely qualified to be president and lead our country forward

(7,661 posts)that. All my life I have had great relationships with women. All my cousin in which I grew up with are women. As of friends, I was the one that the girls felt comfortable talking to in my teen years. After having children I was the only guy in many groups of women, play dates and such. My mother raised me because my father was alcoholic and the only contact I had with him was with a belt. Many of my friends from childhood that remained happen to be women. Thank you for asking

(22,781 posts)You seem to be implying that people support Hillary only because she's a woman. If you really believe that, you are sadly mistaken. But haters gonna hate.

for the hug. I'm a bit thin skinned when it comes to being labeled. Especially when it is far from the truth.

Follow Zorra's advice... don't let them get into your head.

(5,815 posts)A lot of "if it criticizes Hillary, it's sexist" hot air comes from the same people sneeringly talking about "Bernie bros" and "brogressives." Gender issues and language only matter when it suits them.
And these same people are busy talking down at LGBT at great length this week.
I'm not exactly going to take my social justice queues from these people. You shouldn't either. It's all false as hell and meant merely to score internet points.
At this point, I think I can safely say Clinton is the candidate of SJWs while Sanders is the candidate of social justice.
And yes, there is a difference. A big one.

(1 post)Would you please translate SJW? (Searched several sites, but couldn't find it.)
I'd appreciate the help, if you've the time.

(5,815 posts)Social Justice Warrior - "A pejorative term for an individual who repeatedly and vehemently engages in arguments on social justice on the Internet, often in a shallow or not well-thought-out way, for the purpose of raising their own personal reputation. A social justice warrior, or SJW, does not necessarily strongly believe all that they say, or even care about the groups they are fighting on behalf of. They typically repeat points from whoever is the most popular blogger or commenter of the moment, hoping that they will "get SJ points" and become popular in return. They are very sure to adopt stances that are "correct" in their social circle.
The SJW's favorite activity of all is to dogpile. Their favorite websites to frequent are Livejournal and Tumblr. They do not have relevant favorite real-world places, because SJWs are primarily civil rights activists only online."

(7,661 posts)Someone asked why did I care about her. Here is my reply.
I was just curious as to what kind of reaction people had over the nasty comments about Palin here on DU. Of course I was not surprised that no one stated that calling her names was sexist or even in poor taste. I think most here understood that the attacks were based on her political beliefs and not because she was a woman.
