I’d like to take this week’s column to call attention to the fact that we currently have a United States President who publically said to a woman, “Quiet, piggy.”
Now I know that’s old news at this point, and that he’s undoubtedly said and done countless more vile and despicable things since then, but let’s just hit the brakes here for one second.
The President of the United States publically said to a woman, in public and in front of the whole world, “Quiet, piggy.”
In the year 2025.
Now I know there are people out there, most of them being men, who might think that’s great and that’s exactly the way things oughta be. But I doubt many of those people are reading this column. And if they are, I doubt they will be for much longer.
Because that’s fucking whack, man.
I’m not even a woman and I am SERIOUSLY offended by this. I am offended because I apparently now live in a society where something like this can be considered not only permissible but normal and quickly overlooked.
I mean, what ever happened to all that women’s lib stuff I grew up hearing about? Generations of brave and tireless women who spent long decades fighting for the right simply to be considered equals and to be treated as such. And now all of sudden it’s like we’re back in the 1930s? When did we all decide THAT was OK?
In my pacifist heart of hearts I truly wish that woman would have just hauled off and slapped him in the face, or at the very least verbally dressed him down like the big fat hog ready to be butchered that he is. That last part was only a metaphor by the way. Actually it was a simile. Or maybe both. Anyway, just thought I’d better make that part abundantly clear. Though I fear people do not even know or care about the difference anymore anyway.
But seriously…the guy is a big fat pig. Straight out of Animal Farm. And I mean that figuratively AND literarily.
Anyway, some people might try to say I am a feminist for thinking the way I do.
But I’m really just a personist. Which is ironic, because I hate people.
I just think we should all hate each other equally is all.
