    When I learned it was a woman I immediately felt sick. The amount of sexism from these people is disgusting. Once you think about the history of women being “hysterical” and how it was “treated”, it even gets more disturbing. I wonder if they would lobotomize her if given half the chance.

      My first thought was, “What the actual fuck?!?” then I found out it was a woman and thought, “Oh! That completely explains EVERYTHING!” This is some peak, bare toothed Handmaid’s Tale level condescension and should serve as a warning to every single citizen of the United States that your country is literally on the brink of becoming a nuclear armed Christian Taliban caliphate.
