'The View' host Elisabeth Hasselbeck's lesbian theory: Older women just couldn't get a man

BY Aliyah Shahid
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

Elisabeth Hasselbeck thinks a lot of older lesbians would have turned out straight ... if they could only land a man.

The co-host of "The View" said older women who have led heterosexual lives are choosing same-sex partners because men their age are chasing younger women.

"All the older men are going for younger women, leaving the women with no one," Hasselbeck said on Tuesday.

I wonder if she actually thinks about the stuff she says...before she says it. I mean, no one can be this bad...ALL THE TIME. I keep thinking...maybe she says all stuff as a publicity stunt. She can't really mean it.

1. Does she have a man?
I can't imagine a guy really wanting to be around her after the sex. I don't mean to be catty, but...:wtf:

20. She should be
When her looks and money go, nobody gay or straight is going to want to put up with her shit.

She'll need to go looking for box turtles.

5. Yeah, I think she does.
Remember, she's been raised to believe that it's merely a lifestyle choice, not something hardwired that you can't do anything about.

And it's not likely she can sympathize with the social pressure that would trap an 18-year-old girl into marriage...or understand the sense of freedom and relief of coming out at forty or fifty or sixty. I have a friend wrote a sex manual for all the late bloomers without a clue what to do.

7. With all the lifelong lesbians who have been on that show
There is just no explanation for the stupid. If she just graduated high school from the one room school 60 miles from the last paved road... I could give her a pass. But my god she's been around all kinds of people for how many years now? She chooses to be an idiot.

16. Good grief, she really cannot see that anyone on earth could actually think and feel differently
than she does without being a villain or a liar. And how pathetic is it that Republicans basically come right out and say that those who don't meet their glossy, phony standard of attractiveness has no value as a human. I wonder if they could predict which fetuses were going to be ugly when they grew up they'd be OK with aborting them.

9. then how does she explain young lesbians?
it's still a stupid theory though! Men can be a lot of trouble, maybe some women too. Personally I prefer my kitties.....

14. She's just thinking about younger men,
worried, heaven forbid, she'll have to either settle for an "older" man or a younger gal.

18. No, it's ideology.
Right wingers are constantly bombarded with "Homosexuality is a lifestyle choice." propaganda. They don't even consider alternative explanations. They commonly believe 'same sex' relationships can be "cured" with prayer.

21. Simplemindedness.
Mental laziness, arrested development. Reptilian mentality.

There are people who are uncomplicated. The can conceive of a complex world and can distill what is relevant.

I think simple minded people fear complexity, which makes it hard to reason with them at all.

If I had to guess EH's emotional age I would guess pre adolescent.
