Do you consider Thom Hartmann a Democratic leader/figure/supporter?

109. You haven't been here very long, have you?

Ever bother to read the DU Terms of Service?

If you did you'd have realized that this isn't exactly an "I can say whatever I want and same to you" environment There are rules against bigoted and sexist speech even if you ARE a woman.

Beyond that, it's sad to see women who really don't get the dynamics of oppression and how much they have, like many racial minorities, internalized, the contempt in which they're held...It's true that in a patriarchal society, men have controlled the language to the point where women tend, in knee jerk fashion, to slur themselves and other women. when, like men, they get angry at women for flaws which have NOTHING to do with gender..
As Tina Fey says in 'Mean Girls", it only makes it easier for men to continue demeaning us...Pathetic.
