Interesting exchange going on over at feministing about a Glamocracy post by Fernanda Diaz arguing that Hillary has “ruined it” for future female politicians by being “unfeminine.” As my friends at Catalyst have said and shown again and again, a woman leader is damned if she does and doomed if she don’t. It’s dispiriting to me to hear the aggressive = unfeminine argument coming from a next-generation younger woman. I mean, unreconstructed/threatened men, sure. But I just hate it how women ourselves can sometimes be our own worst enemy. You know?
