At least a few women- I don’t know any outside of this small area, who might have been sympathetic to Ford were quite put off by the precious little girl voice she affected. They felt uncomfortable with the performance.
My wife, Mom and Mother-in-law are furious at the way Kavanagh has been treated. My 19 year old daughter who is in no way political watched Ford at the hearing on TV and said she’s a lying crack head, on some drugs of some sort.
I have one friend who is a leftist and she and I went at it on BookFace a bit, we always do and she couldn’t give a coherant reason to believe her other than she is a woman and must be believed. When I suggested that if some woman in her husbands office decided to lay a rape charge on him with no evidence she would be mad as hell and he would deny it(I know the guy, he is a good guy and would never do such a thing)she would demand justice and due process and me and his other friends would come forward to defend him but if I am to follow her reasoning and the new standard she is demanding, he’s guilty because the woman must be believed regardless of her facts. She finally admitted this all boiled down to abortion in the end.
