. . . . . that Trump holds women in any level of regard whatsoever.
If he did, he wouldn't be on the Howard Stern show telling listeners flat chested women have a hard time being a 10. In fact, he would not be talking about "rating" women's physicality in any way whatsoever.
If he did, he would never object, as he has, to a woman feeding her infant in the most natural and human way possible.
If he did, we wouldn't be subjected to watching him start feuds with woman after woman, after woman. And damned few men. He sues men. He belittles women.
If he did, he wouldn't have to change wives with regularity for what seems for all the world a desire for a younger piece of arm candy. Watching him closely with his third wife -- he demonstrates a level of warmth that, on a good day, is infinitely less than what most married couples share normally.
If he did, he would NEVER, EVER fat shame a woman. It is a safe assumption that most (at least American) women have some level of body image concern. No doubt there are exceptions, but I think my statement is true. If one really wishes to hurt a woman in a very deep way, fat shame her. Being as strong as they are, many women will laugh it off or otherwise let it pass. But it hurt. Deeply. ANYBODY who says he respects women knows this fundamental fact.
No, Donald Trump does NOT care about women. He just likes to ogle them. He likes to collect them. He likes to exploit them as "entertainment." He likes to be seen with "hot" women. He likes to show off his wives and his daughters. He cares about women ONLY TO THE EXTENT THEY ENHANCE HIM.
Fuck you, Donald Trump. If you were a REAL man, you'd know this and act differently.

this for president. Have we as a people descended that low?

(32,723 posts)There was a top Swedish model they sat next to Trump because they thought she would get a kick out of him and she showed up at the guy's table practically in tears pleading to be seated somewhere else because Trump was the most vulgar man she had ever met. He was trying to get her to join in on his rating all of the women at the party based on T and A assuming she would trash everyone else since she measured up to his superior breeding.

(108,990 posts)Even Trump would be "politically correct" enough not to mock black people to entertain others -- at least not publicly. But he sees no problem mocking women.
He's a disgusting misogynist.

It seems Trump has not

(41,991 posts)You can insult men's appearance but the culture doesn't support it. There are many successful men whose looks are simply not a subject for judgment. Men get to look interesting and odd and if they're likeable or powerful then it's just icing. Women only get to be respected in broad cultural terms "in spite" of not looking a particular way that society has deemed beautiful. We know we can't be that ideal, that "10" because it's an insane, narrow, objectifying construct, but we so want to be valued. Do we believe ourselves valuable not in spite of but simply in addition to our perfectly wonderful looks? Often. But it's out there haunting most of us in a way men don't have to be haunted, and Trump is a prime perpetrator of our abuse.
So again, thanks for recognizing us. You're smart.

That is a clear description of sexual assault. That's not cute. That's not manly.
And fuck Billy Bush for his yucking it up and engaging in this shit.
