In reply to the discussion: The More Discrimination a Woman Has Faced the More Likely She Supports Hillary (HRC GROUP) [View all]Loki
(3,830 posts)48. So you think that particular reason is the only reason women are voting for Hillary?
That is probably one of the most ridiculous statements I've heard. Are you a woman? Did you grow up in the time when abortions were illegal, women were just supposed to get married and have children, your career choices were secretary, teacher or nurse. You couldn't obtain contraception unless you were married, and oh you couldn't even get a credit card in your name. Do you remember those days? I do. We had no opportunities to play sports except in gym class. I'm sorry, but unless you have walked in these shoes, you don't know what you are talking about. We had to fight for every inch we have gained, and I remember who stood in our way.
