I agree with him, too.

And you're right-- you can improve your oratory skills, but you can't change your voice.

Now take this same issue, and apply it to women's body types, hair, clothes, mothering ability (if they choose to be a mother), sexiness (or lack thereof)... clavicles... an infinite amount of things to nitpick, grate on nerves, etc etc...

I've posted about this before... And I was told, it's like Ludacris said-- "Lady in the street, freak in the bed"-- simple as that. Easy peasy !

Finding the right balance between:

modulating all the things that make us women-- things like a higher-pitched voice, which can be unpleasing at a certain volume--

and

giving off an aura of strength-- strength enough to do a job no woman has ever done before

and

not taking shit off anybody (without seeming catty or bitchy)

and

maintaining that magical weight that is neither too fat nor too thin

and

dressing for "your" "age"-- commiserate with what society expects, lest you appear to be "trying too hard" on one end of the spectrum or "letting yourself go" on the other

and

appearing to be sane

and

doing what the freak you want to do-- if I want to wear a frilly floral dress to a meeting because that's what I feel like wearing, but I really shouldn't

is

the hardest thing about being a woman.

I feel for you Lugnuts.

That was a great post, BTW.

I really want to put on a frilly floral dress right now.

Let's save our loads for after the Dem convention. Hillary will get a bump then things will fall back to an equilibrium. Then we can lose our minds after the first debate and rinse lather and repeat until November.

How can you be certain they aren't Hispanic? Not all Hispanics look the same..

Just judging on experience, if someone handed my wife a sign that butchered her language, she wouldn't be waving it proudly. She'd rip it up.

But it's not all the same issue.

Check again in two weeks. If it's still that close, the race is on. And perhaps quite compelling.
