Zeed said:The quote was stupid at best and downright offensive at worst. You seem willing to give it a free pass as "meaningless pandering", but then in the same breath accused the poster who quoted it of being the sexist. If you weren't being flippant, and actually were serious, then you come off as a petty hypocrite.
I think we might be arguing about two different things here, so I'm going to back it up for a second. Here's what I originally said:
"As much as I dislike Hillary Clinton, I would enjoy seeing her elected just because it would infuriate misogynists like you."
I add emphasis to the last bit because that was the thrust of my point. I found what SexConker posted to be sexist, so I decided to call him out on it. I also feel that many (but not all) Hillary haters harbor similar sexist notions. The Clinton quote in his post did not really enter into my argument until you asked me whether or not SexConker's post was valid. My opinion is that the quote is silly, but not much more. It's certainly not a justification for sexist fear mongering. I imagine you feel I'm a hypocrite because you believe that Hillary's statement was also sexist. I personally don't view it that way, so we are going to have to agree to disagree.
