She has no personality or public persona of her own, she reads off a teleprompter for a cable news station and occasionally asks loaded questions, its very difficult to insult an empty suit but i guess he thought it was necessary. Now he just says their ratings are low if they come after him. He's learned.
That's cool, but calling her a bimbo was completely unnecessary, saying she has blood coming out of "whatever" was not necessary.

What the whole thing reveals is that Trump deep down inside really does view women as trophies and objects of physical attractiveness for men to obtain. I actually think maybe he is just pandering with the whole muslims thing, but there's basically no question that Donald Trump really is very sexist.

quote:

And what, is he going to call all the men "bastards"? Men are more likely to project a certain persona that can be attacked if they come after him. Difficult to attack women but they are used, and use themselves, as political pawns too. To ignore them all out of chivalry is a way to get taken advantage of. Like Bernie did by refusing to attack Hillary.

This is an argument which flies well on reddit and maybe with a certain demography of 17-25 year old dudes, but not for the general American electorate

No Mans Land posted:

Women on average work fewer hours in the office than men, this is a fact. This plays into lower effectiveness. Still havent entered the realm of sexism. If you still think thats sexism then I guess life is very hard for you.

Plenty of countries work less than us and are more productive. Studies have shown that increased hours worked does not produce a 1:1 increase in productivity, and at a certain point it is the opposite.

I think Donald Trump actually just has no time or respect for those he considers useless, weak, low-energy, etc. It's just that, if you're one of those things and also an attractive woman, he'll at least give you the time of day because he wants to treat you like a sex object, whereas he'd just ignore you entirely if you were a man. So, yeah, Trump is a pretty bad sexist, but not quite as bad as it might appear if you were to ignore his disdain toward most men as well.

It's also worth noting that holding certain specific women in high esteem is not incompatible with being a male chauvinist in general. I know women who think that women are, on average, worse than man at most things, and I can tell you they sure as gently caress don't count themselves in the category of "most women." That doesn't mean they don't hold sexist opinions.

Lets assume ive done all that and still think the same things. Then what? Would you then explain what these complexities are?

My mother and sister are voting for Bernie, but I feel like theyre only doing it because they feel like theyre supposed to, neither are too enthused about him and have never bothered defending him to me. Not that i have ever attacked him to them.

Im just saying, its not like a lot of people especially women want to articulate at length why they are voting for someone. Its more like "whats my social circle..whats my family doing..ok i'll do that"

Edit 2 - i know my mother supports bernie because of his stance on global warming and she works in green technology. Thats about it i think

Politics is roughly 99% emotional and maybe 1% rational on a good day. The problem with internet autists is that they insist on thinking everyone is 99% rational and different PoVs don't matter because people with the same rationalities ends up with the same conclusions. And they try to account for emotions by using amateur psychology and/or PUA material which gives them a warped and oversimplified model on how other people actually think irl. The whole "Trump is Alpha so women will vote for him" is case in point. This is why they seem awfully out of touch with reality.

Like in the end, no amount of making posts on D&D is gonna equate to a couple of convos you have with real life women on the issue of sexism and politics in changing your opinion.

But i think these women only think Trump is sexist (or more to the point, discriminatory) because of the non stop media narrative painting him as such, absent any actually damning evidence in favor of it. So my question has been, is he actually sexist and what has he done? Not, what is the perception among the easily misled? Because I think that's all that is happening here. It is easier for me to come to this point because of the amount of misunderstandings about Trump i have personally cleared up on these forums, just as one idiot with a forums account. Imagine whats happening everywhere else where no one is countering the endless "perception is reality" smear campaign.

Edit i mean he does say off color things from time to time, but thats just lack of filters operating, ive never detected any actual malice, which seems like it would be the key thing with sex discrimination.

You can paint reality. For example, an ad where women are simply reading Trump's literal words about women. You aren't Roddy Piper with the magical sunglasses that let you see the false narratives that everybody else is under the spell of.
