"Sexism" is the new "racism" and a way of intimidating people into silence. Recognizing the First Lady as a beautiful woman and comparing her to other first ladies is not sexist. Defining the First Lady solely on her appearance would be more along of being sexist. She is an intelligent lady who is also a mother, a business woman and knows five languages.

It's the reaction that people get from people other than the reason why people react in the first place. No, the original op was showing the official portrait of our new FLOTUS.

I was simply expanding on my thought regarding the emerging political correctness of using "sexism" the way the Obama administration used "racism" as their all-purpose weapon to condemn anything and everything that didn't conform to liberal views.

Do we do that with the men in their lives? Is there a thread complementing the POTUS on his handsomeness and talking about how much more attractive he is than his predecessors? If one does it for the women and not for the men, then they are being sexist. It is really that simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
