Hillary gaves Sexist, pseudo apology to Kennedies.

[CaptJasHook]

My partner (a social worker with a master in studies of gender identity issues) just pointed out Hillary's male chauvenistic, sexist use of the "if" in her apology.

I am sorry Kennedys IF my words gave you negative feelings. I don't apologize for my words, just you having feelings. Maybe your feelings are unjustified. You should just calm yourself down and realize that my abusive behavior had good intentions.

We have come full circle.

1. And why not "apologize" to OBAMA as well? She's so done.

2. yep...so don't get "hysterical" nt

3. Sexist?

If When I use the adverb "if" that means I'm being sexist?

[skooooo]

7. i think the op means...

That Hillary is using a tactic that negates others' reaction (feelings) about her statement. Typically, I guess that is done by people in power to those who have less power.

4. Clinton is a trained lawyer who weighs every word. She knows what she is saying or Not saying.

who has extensively studied feminist literature and philosophy.
