Women respond to Gloria Steinem's apology:

[cui bono]

175. No one is throwing her under the bus. We are disagreeing with her on these two missteps.

It was not an apology. She blamed the women for misinterpreting what she said when what she said was very clear. But in defending her I see young women who support Bernie being thrown under the bus.

You just said almost the same thing just now: "I don't presume to speak for girls--or boys. I do know that I wasn't above feigning an interest in something to gain advantage in my frisky youth. I only speak for myself, of course. "

wink, wink.

You are belittling their choice of Sanders right there. Is it so difficult to believe that a lot of women - it seems most women these days - think Bernie is the better candidate? That they aren't going to vote for a woman just because of gender? That they don't see feminism as a team sport but as something that empowers them to be able to think for themselves, make their own choices and not be belittled because it isn't Hillary Clinton?
