Women in politics — the double standard
Even WSB talk show host Erick Erickson could not resist. What was the topic? GOP Presidential candidate Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann eating a corndog at the Iowa State Fair!
What did this have to do with joblessness, taxes, spending, the federal deficit, or the war in Afghanistan? Nothing. Yet, the photograph of Congresswoman Bachmann eating a corndog made the rounds over the internet, cable news and talk radio. The commentary was full of innuendo and double entendre.
Of course, there are never any photographs of men eating any assortment of foods. Not even President Bill Clinton merited that kind of treatment. And, certainly, there are never photographs accompanied by silly little smiles and smirky little comments.
Unfortunately, this continues to be the fate of women in American politics today. There are stories about their clothes (Senator Hillary Clinton’s pantsuits), glasses (Governor Sarah Palin’s eyewear), and hair styles (Congresswoman Bachmann’s styling). There are stories about their makeup, shoes, jewelry and pocketbooks.
