Day after day, night after night, I see that comedians feel quite comfortable spewing out jokes about Hillary Clinton. Yet I’ve not heard a peep about Barack Obama. Not a thing.

I’m guessing it’s because he’s black and nobody wants to get a hand-slapping for saying something that might be construed as racist.

But why is it okay to be sexist?

A feminist perspective of these two candidates might go like this: It’s still a “man’s world.” Penises are above vaginas (correctly, “vaginae,” but that feels awkward to type!). First the white penises, then the penises of color. And it’s the same for the vaginas.

Political correctness, it seems, extends to skin color, but not beyond.

Another day I will go into more detail, but it’s been a crazy time (hence my absence) and I’m exhausted.

Be well, all!
