A lot of misogyny is unconscious. Some of the most vicious misogeny is from women towards other women. One insidious form of it is “selective feminism” - a theoretical support of other women that really only applies to women that we like.

But women are people. Do we support someone just because they are female? I did not agree with Warren's policies or her excuses for why people didn't vote for her. I think a lot of people were hoping that she would be the stronger candidate. She wasn't. Am I a misogynist?

I’m not talking about whether or not we support people politically. That’s in the realm of honorable debate. I’m talking about whether or not we demonize other women, judge them unfairly etc - particularly in ways we would not do to men.

Are you talking about me and my vicious attacks on @ewarren and @KamalaHarris? Which also included racist tropes and disinformation about them? Then I'm guilty of that and proud of it. I don't fit in the concept of these far left lunatics who dare to want Human Rights.

Every body has biases and are treated unfairly it's just easier to see it from your POV, but they exist in other POVs. We should all be better and control our biases, assumptions, judgements, etc and focus on the individual.

Or maybe unfairly judge them for not being more like a man.

Meghan McCain made this point on The View today (while not recognizing that she did exactly this to you, and continues to do so...) .... I know she' a sore subject for you but I want to acknowledge that a LOT of women are talking about this today (EW did brilliantly on Maddow)

Excellent idea! Let's have an Emulate Annie Oakley day, what do you say, sister? It would be a great way to educate our younger and more vulnerable members of the dangers of being disarmed in a dangerous society.

Don't remember the media glorifying the women in the Trump administration for their accomplishments

If a woman sound ignorant amd behaves like a victim as Hillary and many more. Then no I will not stand by stupid. I am a free thinking strong woman. Show me a strong woman with MORALS and VALUES and not corrupt or slept there way to top (Harris). Then all about it. Yet to see.

100% this is a problem of the Left. The Left DESTROYS women, minorities, anyone, who doesn’t agree. The Left uses the term house n— for goodness sakes! The Left says any woman voting R is a gender betrayer.

You are totally right @marwilliamson . I remember noticing this -- if anyone remembers the 'Kellyanne sitting on a couch awkwardly' thing...

The ‘Kellyanne couch’ fake controversy really shows how many liberal women are happy to bring out the misogynistic shaming when convenient:
