The Insanity Spreads

As prominent female bloggers imagine sexism everywhere! Why, even men are doing it! What the hell is wrong with these people? (Cue mandatory “I’m a woman, and I don’t see any sexism directed at Clinton” chorus…)




Susie, it must be your wandering uterus! (Bob Somerby must be transgender or intersex or something, too.) Just have some Kool-Aid and you’ll feel better!
As someone who knows a little bit about how discourses about gender, sexuality, and the family have been used historically in politics and warfare, I feel very confident that historians in the not-so-distant future will agree much more with Digby, Somerby, and their ilk than Russert, Matthews, etc. It’s so flippin’ obvious, unless one has a political stake in denying it.
Man, I worked on a bunch of stupid analogies last night for the next time somebody went off on this again, and nobody’s going off.
I’m hurt, and disappointed.
