Public Servant - Yes, woman are integral to a progressive defense of democracy and women leaders should be acknowledged, celebrated, and taken seriously, no matter their genetic background. But we CANNOT be in a gender or skin color divide and hope to prevail. WE MUST STICK TOGETHER like the super-est of glues. Unity, strategy, and truth are our weapons (along with some a bit of funding), not genderism or racism. Yes pale males have dominated Western culture for 100s of years and too many are tender flowers that feel threatened by any jiggling of the status quo, but don't chuck the baby with the bathwater. There are still plenty of pale males who are smart, passionate, progressive, and AWAKE. Respect one and all!

Yes, very good point. Just hard to see Trump and Co. literally erasing women from the government and the conversation.

Yes, it is. That is what WEAK men do. However, we who are not weak men or women do not care about race or gender. We care about who can do the best job!
