2. uh, no
you'd be a male chauvinist if you thought that her being a woman meant that her beauty was all she had to offer (other than you know, making babies, making dinner and pleasing her man).

3. Well I'm a female
and while I do no think she's the most beautiful woman in the world (cause that would be me). I will say she is very attractive. I'll also say she's one lucky woman to have gotten to Dennis before me.

26. He is besotted with him. It was evident. On the other hand, IMHO, she didn't seem to
be equally besotted with him. I am not saying she doesn't love him, or even adore him, but she didn't have the look of someone eating up the other person with their eyes. He did.

58. She looks very much like my best friend from high school

Beauty is subjective - if you think you think she is the most beautiful woman in the world, then to you, she is...Nothing chauvinistic about it.

She's pretty lucky too. She's married to a Congressman who REALLY stands for THE PEOPLE.

11. no, but it tells me something about you...
you focus a lot on external beauty without much caring how superficial it is.

Maybe Mrs. Kucinich brings out your latent "Lady Godiva" fantasies? She has that pale skin and red flowing hair -- I could picture her demurely naked on a white horse -- maybe an early Renaissance tapestry version rather than the black velvet version.

He's kind of dorky looking and short. She's long tall and good looking with flaming red hair. What a contrast.

23. Yes, you are, you man you
Her personal appearance has distracted you.
Also, the concept of a hetero white racist/rapist male spewing out fantasies about a sitting U.S. congressman's wife is less than appropriate.
You are one sick puppy, NNNHOLI!

How Kucinich Found Love
by Evelyn Theiss

"On May 4, Elizabeth Harper walked with her boss into Dennis Kucinich's Capitol Hill office for a meeting and immediately noticed three things. In the reception area, she saw a visiting nun in white robes. In his inner office sat a shelf bearing an illustration depicting "light consciousness" and a bust of Gandhi.

She studied the lean and intense congressman and felt an attraction.

"Now this is an interesting man," she thought.


Elizabeth Harper and Dennis Kucinich

Dennis had also closely observed Elizabeth, a statuesque Englishwoman with waist-length red hair.

"I saw her eyes go to the light consciousness picture, then to the Gandhi bust, then to me," he says. "It was like one, two, three. That's when I knew."

53. Democratic men have the best wives
Kuncinich has a beautiful wife. She is stunning.
John Edwards has a beautiful wife. I think Elizabeth is pretty and down to earth.
Barack Obama has a beautiful wife. Michelle is classic and elegant

democratic men marry the best women.

As a democratic woman, I think our side has better potential first ladies.

and even Hillary is not ugly.

28. She is a beautiul woman and admiring beauty for beauty's sake doesn't make
you a male chauvinist pig. If you said that she's less of a person than you because she is a woman, makes you a chauvinist pig.

As to being the most beautiful woman in the world? I think there are many more women that exceed her beauty. As an example, she reminds of Julianne Moore, who I think is much more beautiful.

My wife is brunette as were all of my girlfriends before I got married.

Weird. Its not the hair.

37. Son, let me tell you; It ain't like picking the best hog at the Fair.
If you were going to judge the hogs at the county fair there might be some standard to go by. It might be that the heaviest one wins or it might be that the longest one wins, or the one with highest or lowest body fat wins, but it would be something and everyone would agree what the standard is. When it comes to how ladies look its different. Every poor slob is on his own and you opnion of what looks good is just as right as anybody elses.

41. This question saddens me
Why is there this mindset that confuses matters of individual taste with matters of institutional policy in regard to sexism?

Saying everything is sexist is another way of saying nothing is sexist.

And Mrs. Kucinich is totally hot.

52. It's a rhetorical technique typically aimed at intimidating feminists....
A more explicit, less-between-the-lines version: "You feminists have made it so that a boy can't even be attracted to a girl anymore, without it being sexism".

46. no. seeing someone as attractive is not bad. She is a nice looking woman
and I don't see how that is bad to say so.
As a woman I always say if I think a man is attractive. Why can't men?
