Flawed: Perfect Is The Enemy Of The Good If Youre A Female Presidential Candidate

[sheshe2]

6. Great read.

Yes, she was the flawed candidate. SHE. Yes, we woman need to be perfect at all times, we need to dress sharply, speak softly or we may come off shrill. We are told to smile more yet not to widely we will come off as insincere. Never laugh out loud, never enjoy a good joke, stay demure and feminine. We are judged not for our brains or the accomplishments we have achieved, we are only ever judged by a preconceived notion of how real women should deport themselves.

Given that EVERYONE has flaws, I am beginning to think that "flawed candidate" is a polite way of saying B---ch

The tweet above says it all, even after 15 plus years voted as the most admired woman in the world, we will only ever be considered B***ches.

Thanks synergie great post.
