(4,035 posts)Feminism fights for equality, which means not only giving women the same rights, opportunities, and respect as men, but also against devaluing that which is seen as feminine and traditionally women's work. That means not only making it acceptable to have a woman President, but also up-valuing housework etc so that this incredible amount of labor isn't dismissed out of hand because it isn't paid. It's not equality if women can do "men's work". True equality won't be achieved until men can be homemakers without being disrespected, until boys can play house with dolls if they want to without fathers shrieking in fear, and what has been traditionally seen as feminine is valued as much as what has traditionally been seen as masculine.
Ms. Sanders reveals her ignorance with her comments, and she certainly shows she is not progressive.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
