I disliked Hillary Clinton, until I uncovered the disturbing history of horrible sexism she’s endured

runningupthathillary:

As someone who makes his living wading through political bullshit, I harbored suspicions and dislike for Clinton based on rumor, innuendo, and the framing of the conversation. I’m not sure exactly when I realized I got it wrong, but the more research I do into her background and record, the clearer it becomes that sexism clouded my perception.

I evaluated Clinton by standards I did not hold her male colleagues to.

This is an INCREDIBLY thorough and well-sourced chronicle of the sexism Hillary Clinton has faced through her entire public life, with a personal narrative of working to overcome culturally-ingrained sexism I think we can all relate to.
