Feminist actress Gaby Hoffman explains why she’s voting for Bernie

Feminist actress Gaby Hoffman explains why she’s voting for Bernie – despite his ‘lovely’ penis

Gaby Hoffman, an actress perhaps best known for her roles in Girls and Transparent, weighed in Thursday morning on her sentiments about supporting Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in his bid for the White House, in a video posted by Yahoo News.

Hoffman pointed out to host Katie Couric that she has deep gratitude for feminists that came before her and “paved the way” for her to “not have had to struggle to have the same opportunities at all.”

But Hoffman also said she didn’t feel obligated to vote for Sanders’ rival, Hillary Clinton, just because she is a woman. She instead supports Sanders because of his “vision, philosophy, integrity, record, and ability to energize this country. Not because he has a penis. I’m sure it’s a lovely one. But I don’t care that he does.”
