This Question Is For Women Only
| Mon, 10-13-2008 - 5:54pm |
I’m just wondering where the majority of women on this board are regarding some pretty basic matters as it relates to being a woman.
If a man shares your point of view politically, is it OK for you, as a woman, to disregard condescending, disrespectful, or sexist attitudes and remarks made by him toward women? If so, please explain. I am very curious.

For instance, if a man referred to you by some aspect of your appearance. Say your hair was blonde and he said, "Blondie over there does this... or thinks that". Would you consider that to be offensive? What if he commented that he thought you had a "nice booty", or commented to someone else publicly that he thought your booty was hot? Would you be flattered or offended?
If I agreed or disagreed with them on virtually every issue in the universe, it wouldn't matter. If a person I barely knew started talking about my "rack" or in the wrong context (e.g. at work) I'd be offended. I'd also think that this person was totally devoid of any manners and tact (their excellent taste in "racks" notwithstanding ;o).
Tee Hee!
bottom line, neither you nor anyone else has provided the slightes shred of evidence that Obama's Senate office violates federal law by not providing equal pay for equal work, or that there is even the faintest hint of discrmination. I know you and others have made this claim time and time and time again, it wasn't supported the first time, nor any of the subsequent times.
Of course you are perfectly free to believe whatever you wish. Belief not based on evidence is shockingly common, particularly among Obama decriers..
