No You Cant : Why Im Still Crying Over Hillary Clintons Loss.
Many women feel this way about Hillary Clinton's defeat in the GE. The loss is not just political; it's personal.
Eirene Donohue
I am her. The words flashed through my head. And suddenly, there on the 101 freeway, I was down the hole again. Tears streaming, sobs choking, heart breaking. The realization hitting me. I am Her.
And here was the root of my pain. This wasn’t just about the disappointment that my candidate lost. Or the fear of what Trump will do to this country. It felt like my very soul hurt and I realized that it was because of what this election said to me as a woman. It said no.
No, woman, stay in your place. No, woman, you are not good enough. No, woman, no matter what you do, you will not win, you will not be the boss of me.
It crushed a part of my female core to realize that yes, the world at large really does hate women that much. And while there are other reasons to dislike Hilary Clinton and disagree with her policies, misogyny and sexism are the gas that fuels the fire they burned her with.
We are supposed to stay quiet and not ask for much. Stay in our place and say please and thank you and don’t challenge anyone. We must be perfect, ten times more perfect than the man beside us. And then we must wait for them to give us permission to follow their orders.

3. I feel let down
Especially by the women who voted for that creep. It hurt me physically in a way, i'm tired, sore, have had three infections in the past month... I almost give up.

23. I envy you that you are at acceptance.
I'm still locked in anger, and lashing out at former family... former friends..
I have resorted to misogynistic insults, ageist insults, racist insults, and all manner of banter that before November 8th would have and did appall me.
I have called women who support trump a "4" and/or a "hag" and have told them they voted for him, they no longer have a voice because they are just women.
I have told elders that supported him, whose profiles say they are retired that they should just off and die because they are beyond their years of being productive citizens in tRump's 'merika. That I hope theirs is the first medicare and social security to get cut out.
I have used the most base and despicable insults against the wives, or children of men on social media who supported trump
I have told school teachers who supported him that I hope they lose their jobs or at the very least have their income severely slashed.
I am disgusted with my behavior on social media, but **** it, logic doesn't seem to sink in with these dipshits who have voted against their own interests, maybe some of the disgusting medicine that they supported being used against them and the ones they love will finally get through to them.

What a bunch of strange cats.

My cat, Oreo, wants an apology for being equated to the DUmmies. :fuelfire:

I'm afraid to ask what kind of infections.

Poor Alex....so stupid she still can't figure out why men keep thinking she has a motorboat.

Maybe that's men's biggest problem with women.
Women cry too much, and over the most trivial things.
<<<referring only to Democrat, liberal, and primitive women of course.

Hey, you wouldn't happen to be planning on being anywhere in or near Omaha anywhere near Christmas, would you? It doesn't have to be Christmas; it can be sometime around.
The other person and I are operating on extremely flexible schedules. We'd like to get Mr Mannn there too, but I suspect he's timid.
Sorry, no. I plan to spend the time off with Moose and family in Topeka.
I will be in Lincoln January 20-21 for the Nebraska Cigar Festival on Friday evening.

After achieving an advanced degree, becoming comfortably ensconced in a well paying job at a liberal university, and living your life by (more or less) your own decisions, you cannot handle the electoral loss of a woman who knows nothing about you and will never do anything to benefit you first? Your world is so fragile that it hinges upon hillary winning because she has a vagina?.
