How dare a woman speak about herself in the first person!

1. wow! Even diagnosed as a narcissist.

Yes- I pretty much quit coming around her b/c of the unexamined sexism, racism, privilege. It's a sad state of affairs.

2. It's bad

I come here now. When I cant stand it I'll reply over there.

I like to think that most of them will be gone when Clinton wins.

3. Those are the dumb threads one sends to the trash bin.

At least I have learned in a short time to do it.

4. The RW has made the same complaint about President Obama

Apparently black and female leaders are, ummm, suspect if they say "I" here and there.

5. If she said "we" they would accuse her

of acting like royalty.

Its okay if Bernie does it, though. Bernie can do as he pleases.

6. Well, "we" is more of a crutch for Bernie anyway...

What does he have to say "I" about really? Not much.

...and is Bernie's "we" really all that inclusive? "We, the
people who fit Bernie's litmus test. All others are cast
aside." At least, it's pretty obvious the "we" doesn't
include a very large percentage of Democrats, either
voters or the influential Democratic figures which have
already gone under the bus.

7. You all please keep pointing out our common, everyday, casual sexism.

It is so deeply embedded in our society and culture, we have no filter and are unaware when we become offensive.

Of course, there are those who mean to be offensive! The coded 'wolf whistle' of anti-feminism.

And those who believe there is nothing too low in attacking Hillary, of course. But "what's good for the goose is good for the gander."

They opened the door!

Any words typed here would be hidden by a jury, so I'll remain silent and let Rupaul express how shocked and surprised I am ...
