God. I couldn't even get thru that post, it made me so angry. And it's true, the sexism is all there, all out in the open, in the mainstream press. I'm sure theres a lot of racism out there in the right wing press, or there will be once Obama is the candidate, but that's not quite the same thing, and it's not accepted in the same way that denigrating women is.

If I have to find one good thing in this it's that Hillary's candidacy, and the reactions to it, have made us more aware of just how rampant sexism still is, and hopefully made us more willing to speak up and try to change the language and the attitudes.

I know that I;ve started speaking up... a couple of days ago I found myself yelling at a bunch of preeteen boys making lewd comments about a woman in a tanktop in the subway. They were shocked, but it made them stop and think. and shut up.
