#334 Is It Sexist To Compliment Kamala Harris’s Outfits?
from American Fever Dream · host Betches Media
Amanda, Sami, Kaitlin and Alise are back for a conversation about sexism in the 2020 general election. What lessons have the media learned from 2016, and where have we fallen short? Where is the line between celebrating female empowerment and being sexist? Is it ever appropriate to compliment a female candidate's appearance? They also discuss whether we hold ourselves to a lower standard when it comes to discussing women whose views we don’t agree with and why maybe that’s okay. Finally, they consider why it’s sexist to expect more from women than men even though women often over perform. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
