TM said something on the FB the other day about people who don't think racism exists anymore. This is a good analogue re: sexism. Wasn't O'Connor offered positions as legal secretary rather than associate after she graduated from law school? How infuriating to read such comments about her on her retirement. I don't care if she refers to herself as an Arizona cowgirl, it's demeaning for Frist and Bush to say that. Maybe it wouldn't be if the makeup were 7 to 2 the other way.

And Hank, the "humble beginnings" thing isn't all there is to those comments. It's just.plain. different. from calling Bush a "simple cowboy." and not just because he's not that at all.
Oh boo! I am gender neutral but its comments like that that make me want to be gratuitously offensive just for the sake of offending the PC policias' sensibility.

Lighten up little lady.
