Because I don't agree that Warren is a socialist, that's all. You and I will disagree on this, and we could go on for several pages citing to different sources why we disagree with each other, or we could play nice and agree to disagree without being disagreeable and talk about something more pleasant, like macaroni and cheese.  

 

Also, I just opened up the leftovers from last night's bottle of bubbly, so I'm feeling in a good mood.  

She is proposing a major income redistribution, she sponsored a bill to essentially have the government take over corporations and police them based on "social justice" principles whatever those are (interesting she did not include labor unions in her sponsored legislation).  She is a big proponent of the GND and its government takeover of the economy.  How much more socialist does one have to do to show that they are a true socialist?

Sounds like Socialism to me...........and many on Wall Street are refusing to support her if she is the democrat candidate.

You should be ashamed of yourselves. It's foul and sexist to place any part of a woman's worth in how "conventionally" attractive she is. Even if it is the norm for some people to make these judgments doesn't make it acceptable. I know I fall into the camp of "conventionally attractive" and I know exactly how much more leeway and how many more advantages I've had because of that accident of genes. And I also know how I've been made to feel that my worth lies in being attractive rather than being intelligent. I've been dismissed as a lightweight, which has its own sting. There is simply no way to win as a woman -- either you're too ugly and therefore worthless as a human being, or too pretty and therefore worthless as anything more than something to look at.

question - did you ever date ugly guys?

If you mean not conventionally attractive, yes. I've been a serial monogamist in my adult life, but when I was in college, and during a short period of time when I was on OKCupid before I got engaged to my ex, there were a couple of guys I dated or hooked up with who weren't "hot."

On a scale of 1-10?

Well, there was a period of time in college, my senior fall semester, when my relationship with my now ex was kind of unclear, and I was sort of... free and easy? (I think that's a polite way of saying it. ) Not all of the guys I picked up in the library were the hottest, but they were kind. Maybe some of them were 4s. It's hard to recall.

Hm. I only had one serious boyfriend in high school, and I'd put him about an 8 back then. The other guy I went out with for a few weeks in high school was a childhood friend, and it's hard to be objective about him -- he's like a brother. (Turns out dating someone you've known since you were 5 isn't always conducive to being actually attracted to him.)

Ummmm. Yes, I do find that obese orangey body strangely attractive. I can barely control my lust. Can't you read my passion pouring from this post.

No but I can see you using body shaming tactics to make your point, is it only women you object this to happen to?

I fully admit to body shaming Trump -- I have a type, and it's not his.  He doesn't even have a dadbod that's swoonable.

Well, if that were true, I'd still be watching Netflix in my old house in Pasadena, waiting for my ex to come home and tell me how I've disappointed him in some way. I decided to go with someone a little less wealthy this time, no regrets.

He's not my type either, I think I am too old to swoon regardless. So it is ok to objectify people or in some cases de-objectify them?

No, it really isn't okay to objectify, and my attempt at a joke probably fell flat. I won't go so far as to "de-objectify" Trump though -- a woman has her limits! How about I dial it back to neutral?

Well different strokes for different folks. To be honest most men like the painted blonde fitness model types.  I like dark hair and a few extra lbs 

All my wives look completely different)))) No extra pounds though)))
