Telling her the most efficient thing to do would be to not do it because she'd get her clock cleaned.

Start by wiping the smarmy grin from your face since you are no longer in middle school SheltieLover Jan 2021 #9

Seems like telling a woman she needs to smile less is gross. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #11

I'm not refering to a smile. It's the "see how smart I am" smarmy sneer SheltieLover Jan 2021 #12

So we're telling her how to smile? Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #15

Yeah, you never hear anyone say a man should wipe that smarmy grin off his face. MrsCoffee Jan 2021 #19

But that's not the point of what was said. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #30

No. That's not what was being said no matter R B Garr Jan 2021 #85

It's absolutely what's being said. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #89

No, wrong again. You are embellishing what was said R B Garr Jan 2021 #100

It's the middle school, smarmy smirk. Not a smile. SheltieLover Jan 2021 #22

One can be trying to be constructive and still be sexist. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #29

I am absolutely not sexist! SheltieLover Jan 2021 #32

Thanks Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #33

I know you're Not "sexist".. Cha Jan 2021 #70

But are they sexist? Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #74

Is asking Trump to remove the shit-eating smirk from his face sexist? LanternWaste Jan 2021 #71

Are you telling him that people would respect him more Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #73

Unfortunately for Donald he has many more issues SlogginThroughIt Jan 2021 #138

Exactly.. TY. Cha Jan 2021 #81

Sheltie, I get what you're saying and agree. Some facial R B Garr Jan 2021 #62

Would you argue that Cheney would be more respected Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #75

Another biased misinterpretation. All politicians have image R B Garr Jan 2021 #83

Another question you didn't answer. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #87

No. I replied to another poster that you also misinterpreted. R B Garr Jan 2021 #90

You replied to another poster with A CHENEY EXAMPLE. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #93

It looks like you are getting angry because your comparisons R B Garr Jan 2021 #95

I seriously doubt that comment was made because she's a woman. So 51% of the population.... George II Jan 2021 #21

So don't be so sensitive about it? You think that's a better approach? Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #28

I don' think either the post you responded to or mine say anything like what you'd like them to say. George II Jan 2021 #39

If that makes you feel better. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #41

Truth and reality makes me feel great. You're calling people here sexist (why toss in racist?).... George II Jan 2021 #46

Because the self awareness of our own sexism and racism are required for those to go away. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #48

There's enough sexism and racism (still don't know why you introduced racism into this).... George II Jan 2021 #61

Pointing out what is sexism when people who don't want to be sexist commit it Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #77

Just making an issue out of nothing. Again, if that comment had been made about a man.... George II Jan 2021 #113

Is there a book about how horribly Hillary Clinton R B Garr Jan 2021 #64

There's a few, actually. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #76

Clinton was savagely attacked for daring to address that in her book. StevieM Jan 2021 #80

Wow! Just the fact you would compare the two R B Garr Jan 2021 #82

Did I say it was equal? Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #86

The two are not comparable and I'm sure you know it. R B Garr Jan 2021 #88

Why won't you answer the question? Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #91

Your whole analogy and comparison of the two is R B Garr Jan 2021 #92

YOU brought up Clinton. (ETA: actually you did bring her up first) Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #94

LOL! Comparing a distinguished career politician, a former R B Garr Jan 2021 #96

I am a fierce feminist & comment was offered as constructive criticism SheltieLover Jan 2021 #31

lulzd: "Start by wiping the smarmy grin from your face since you are no longer in middle school" Voltaire2 Jan 2021 #34

Not an attack at all! SheltieLover Jan 2021 #47

Right. Voltaire2 Jan 2021 #54

97%? Where'd you get that number? Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #78

But of course it's turned into a misogynistic comment, even if it wasn't. George II Jan 2021 #37

Or, and I know this is having trouble landing with you, it was sexist. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #42

In what was was it "sexist"? I'm sure you can explicitly explain it to us naive people. George II Jan 2021 #45

I think I've been pretty clear on this subthread. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #49

And yet the term is used here quite frequently, most often towards men. MrsCoffee Jan 2021 #60

So it can be used in multiple ways? Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2021 #72

You are really trying too hard. MrsCoffee Jan 2021 #101
