An evergreen guide to what the Left is doing or plans to do is to listen to what they accuse their political opponents of. Along those lines, incandescent in its projection, cynicism, and hypocrisy is the latest mantra emanating from the Democrats of the “Republican War On Women,” based on nothing more than some crude comments (since apologized for) by a talk-show host aimed at a Democrat feminist activist who thinks that the world owes her free (and expensive) contraception and, moreover, that it should be done in violation of the religious conscience of Catholics. Of course, they don’t want their demagoguery to be distracted by the annoying reality that their own misogyny and assault on women is much more virulent, and has been going on for much longer.
It should be shocking, by the conventional narrative, that the White House of a “liberal” president would be a hostile work environment for women, but it is not at all a surprise to anyone familiar with the history of the Democrats and the Left, going back at least to the 1960s, when a prominent Democrat politician got a pass from the media for abandoning a young woman (possibly pregnant by him) to drown in his car. The same man went on to later fame as the top slice of bread in a “waitress sandwich,” and yet was so lionized by the Left that not that long ago, at the time of his death, a woman(!) wrote that Mary Jo Kopechne might have been happy to undergo the terror as her lungs filled with the brackish water of Martha’s Vineyard had she only known what a great legislator he would turn out to be.

Here’s a hanky.
It has been a long time since I have seen such a gap in the conversation.
And you continue to provide zero evidence to that effect, instead continuing to deflect with non sequiturs.
And by the way, I'm not a "she," so it would be hard for me to be anyone's "girlfriend."
It’s not a “fit”. Men and women are NOT interchangeable. Their “wiring” does not interchange.
No matter how much the left tries, especially in recent times, to make it so women “can have sex like men”, it’s not the psychological wiring that they were born with, and it will cause emotional and mental problems if they try to force it.
That's all interesting, I guess, but it has absolutely nothing to do with anything I've written.
It’s a culture clash. They, along with the author of the article, think feminism is valid instead of realizing that it is a Marxist tool.
Just wow.
Yep! She will not answer the question. Just runs off in a different direction and wraps herself in victimhood!
I’ve seen all but the last season of Mad Men and am about the same as you chronologically.
I think the show is fairly accurate as regards the status relationship between the sexes.
I would however fault in one area: there aren’t any good men in the show.
So it’s fairly accurate historically but not in its character balance.
