Whether or not a man interrupts a woman in conversation is not the bigger point and can distract us from the systemic problem. Misogyny is not just about a comment; it stems from an insidious mental framework that diminishes women. And it’s perpetrated by women as often as by men

Harris lost last night. Making excuses does not help.

Kamala had more speaking time. You’re such a joke you were laughed out of the race.

I believe your comment is a bit sexist but I understand why you might believe in it. bullies tend to dominate staff meetings over team members (M & F) who don’t bully or get sarcastic to drive their point. It takes a great team leader who recognizes that & acts to stop it.

You Dems always have an excuse and that is the truth

I don’t think women do it as often as men, but I do think they do it often and it’s a true problem. Women who like to see other women fail are disgusting.

Exactly right. It’s like gay men who are hideous and demeaning toward one another.

It was bad enough to see men not recognize it, but worse that so many women did not as well. Maybe now that it was on full display folks can just stop doing it. #noexcuses #smashthepatriarchy

Harris intimated Susan. It was so apparent.

I often find it's younger women who perpetrate misogyny because they haven't dealt with much of what we have. They take for granted what we fought hard for as always having been that way. Still much to fight for & I'm not seeing the baton being grabbed.

Marianne, I love your tweets, but this one stung. How on earth do women perpetrate misogyny 'as often as men'? This is victim blaming. Yes, there are plenty of anti-feminist women out there--they've been gaslit by the patriarchal norms in our society.
