It's about being under more scrutiny and not getting as much leeway as a man would. I really don't think anybody could argue that Hillary was under a lot more policing than any other candidate had gotten - a man fighting to get ahead isn't as taboo, it's "tough" and acting like a man. When a woman does it it's under a more critical eye. Shit she literally got blasted for not smiling at debates AND for how she did smile at the debates. I agree with this while at the same time thinking it was much worse for Hillary just because she is Hillary. By no means should this be used as a reason to say we should shy away from woman candidates in general. A lot of what she took heat for was due to her negative charisma morseo than just being a woman. Uncharismatic men get similar treatement. I mean you guys are literally the studio execs who thought literally Wonder Woman couldn't have a successful movie because Elektra and Catwoman didn't do so hot. --- Blasting off ...
