“Women oftentimes are viewed- you know- as crying uh, and that they’re weak, they’re emotional, and that they can’t handle the situation, whereas men if they shed a tear they’re being viewed as very compassionate.”

If men "shed a tear" it might be compassion, if they blubber like a baby, they WILL be labeled as weak and deservedly so.

So they got up on Wednesday morning and started feeding the media lies... making us look bad, making me look bad personally,” Blanco tells KATC.

Oh, she's wrong; we started criticizing her the Saturday before the storm at that pitiful press conference!

“Women oftentimes are viewed- you know- as crying uh, and that they’re weak, they’re emotional, and that they can’t handle the situation, whereas men if they shed a tear they’re being viewed as very compassionate.”

This from the woman whose plan for the storm was to PRAY that Katrina turned away from New Orleans.
