Do those of us who don’t like Hillary Clinton not like her because she’s a woman?

Sep 12, 2016, 4:11 PM

If you’ve spent time around the “elites”, which I define as those that work in the upper stratosphere of media and politics, you’ll notice that whenever they talk about “regular people” it sounds like they are talking about zoo animals.

And now they say that the media coverage of Hillary Clinton has been unfair to Hillary because she’s a woman. The Atlantic points to a study that says that 52% of white men hold a very unfavorable view of Clinton, which is 20 points higher than those that viewed Obama unfavorably in 2012. Do white men hate white women? That doesn’t really make sense, does it?

So do those of us who don’t like Hillary Clinton, not like her because she’s a woman? No, it’s because she lies, continually.

The Atlantic says that the Americans who dislike Hillary the most are those that fear emasculation. The study also went on to say that people that think that America is getting too soft and feminine were four times more likely to have an unfavorable view of Hillary.

But this was a woman who was aggressive enough to start a civil war in Libya, who is blatantly avaricious, blatantly in pursuit of power. Hillary, in terms of her political dealings, doesn’t contain any notion of femininity; politically she’s a cutthroat.
