Which one is it? And don't say I'm twisting your words, because this is all based on your criticisms of Hilary. |

Strong and abarsive are too entirely different traits.

How do you find her abrasive? I mean, specifically, where do you see abrasiveness in her?

*Reads recent posts*
Wha...? *Blinks repeatedly* Any guy who has an issue with Hilary simply because she's *Gasp* strong and forceful needs to get over it, quite frankly. If you don't agree with her on the issues, that's entirely different and makes much more sense (and I'd be inclined to agree with you there). But to not like her simply because she doesn't take crap from people and doesn't back away from expressing her thoughts and is actually as tough as the guys can be (how dare a woman not act like a stereotypical female!), well... Once again, some people have their priorities in a really odd order. Angela |

![]() ![]() All your comments about the male candidates seem to have to do with their hair and/or their perceived good looks and/or sexual prowess ![]() What is it exactly about Hillary that seems so threatening to you? Because she's not like Laura Bush? Women are individuals, not step in line robots. Just like men are. |

I thought of this thread when I read this in a column today by Ellen Goodman.
As a recent Catalyst survey of corporate leaders said, women are "damned if they do and doomed if they don't" meet the expectations of gender stereotypes. Linguistics professor Deborah Tannen describes the fate of achieving women this way: "Our image of a politician, a leader, a manager, anyone in authority, is still at odds with our expectations of a woman. To the extent that a woman is feminine, she's seen as weak. To the extent that she puts it aside and is forceful, aggressive, and decisive, she's not seen as a good woman." How ironic that some qualities some people admire in someone like GWB, well they just seem to be a huge problem if any woman possesses them-well at the very least any Democratic woman. |

Ellen Goodman is spot on-sad, but true. You do raise an interesting question as well-if a Republican woman were running, how would people handle her should she be as tough as Hilary?
Honestly, I don't care if someone's male or female, Democrat or Republican, whatever, I'm not going to get on them simply for having a strong will. That trait alone isn't a bad thing to have (it's something I wish I had more of). It's what they do with that strong will that matters most to me. As for your other post, by the way, MrsSpringsteen-rock on ![]() ![]() Angela |

I wonder how long after 2008 will it take before there's a minority that runs on the Repbublican ticket?

Please don't tell me you are basing your opinions on someone's physical appearance.

Nice try Einstein.
Even a family Dr will tell that men and women are wired differently emotionally. And genetically speaking you're wired closer to a woman than most men. good day. dbs |
