It's the genderedness. If he'd called it Golden Genitals Complex I might've been less bothered.
But really, it's "argument that superior experience guarantees superior knowledge", and whether that is on the basis of the ownership of a vagina, a penis, a marriage license, a car, or really anything else, it's the same type of stupidity, and I'd like to see it called out as that.
- ramblerman 15y agoPeople say Obama has swagger. Women have that motherly touch. These are positive statements, one however has a racial implication, and the other has a "genderedness" aspect. It isn't offensive to realize they're are differences between us. Unless, of course, we really want to bring the "smooth area" from kid's dolls into the adult world.
