In reply to the discussion: Salma Hayek gets knighted??? For WHAT? For marrying a mega-rich pal of right wingnut Sarkozy? [View all]TorchTheWitch
(11,065 posts)You know, because she's pretty and all, so she couldn't possibly have any accomplishments of her own, must be dumb as a brick and just couldn't possibly have earned a place in the 1% category through her own efforts without having to marry some dude (and of course, since she's pretty and all she just couldn't possibly have married the dude for any other reason than money because even though she's a well-known and accomplished actress she must be a broke gold-digging hussy).
Your frequent misogynist attacks on attractive women - or for that matter any woman you disagree with on something - is really getting tiresome. But what is so irksome is that for someone who purports to be so against misogyny some of the worst objectifying and dehumanizing of women I've seen on this forum has been coming from you yet you seem entirely oblivious to it.
As far as Salma Hayek receiving a knighthood is concerned, the only thing to be upset about it is that in this day and age there are still European countries that cling to the trappings of class divide and the ridiculous notion of nobility by still having a monarchy, titles for the modern gentry-by-birth and pass out knighthoods... all that's missing is the jousting and a few beheadings.
