(19,549 posts)48. He's terrified of powerful women. Just like any weak misogynistic male out there.
Strong women are scary because we threaten their ability to feel entitled by their male privilege. Put a strong woman in power and the misogynist are peeing their pants and ranting like lunatics about her in a diminutive way. Trump is thousands of miles from an exception here. He's literally their poster boy!
When any woman shared his Power level he, of course, tried to go Alpha male on them out of a weak, knee jerk reaction to make him still feel manly. He's just a scared, weak little man beating his chest when faced with a perceived threat from powerful, scary woman.

Actually, pretending that misogyny is not widespread is exactly what the orange clown and his fools

Trump dominates & denigrates all women. Yet he's allowed to do so & oftenheld in high regard for it.
