I’ve had a thing for Chelsea ever since we were going through our awkward teenage phases together. I shook hands with her at a rally the night before her dad got re-elected in '96. She clearly wanted me, but alas, she had to return to her world and I to mine. I’m sure she and the runner-up will be very happy together. ---

(Not trying to derail the thread; just offering a tidbit for thought)… Yes, but this thread is a great example of **Cats** ’ point. I see it all the damned time on here. Any thread about a female celebrity (or politician or scientist, or whatever) will have _multiple_ posts debating her attractiveness, even when _the reason she is known or getting news attention has nothing to do with her looks_. Chelsea Clinton isn’t a model. Yulia Tymoshenko isn’t a Playboy centerfold. Yet they will repeatedly get judged on their appearance. This doesn’t happen with threads on men (who are not in the entertainment business), unless they happen to be abnormally smokin’ hot. Even _then_, it happens much less frequently. I mean, for god’s sake, a woman could make headlines about finding the cure for AIDS, and many conversations or threads would include things like, “man, she really needs to get a better stylist” or “jesus christ, look at that friggin’ underbite!”. How demeaning is that? ---

How demeaning is that? Yeah, but I mean, she can always use her Nobel Prize money to buy some plastic surgery, so it’ll be fine.
