US feminists promise "special place in hell" to women who do not vote for Hillary
As Bender Sanders is outdrawing Hillary Clinton in support among young women, this weekend two feminist icons, Madeleine Albright and Gloria Steinem, called on young women who supported Sanders to essentially grow up and support Hillary.
Albright, 78, said how the fight for gender equality is not over and thus young women need to vote for Hillary. “We can tell our story of how we climbed the ladder, and a lot of you younger women think it’s done,” Albright said. “It’s not done. There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help each other!” Clinton, 68, laughed, slowly clapped and took a large sip of her beverage.
Steinem, 81, an interview with the talk show host Bill Maher said that young women are in the Bernie camp because that's where the young men are, “When you’re young, you’re thinking: ‘Where are the boys? The boys are with Bernie.’” Maher pointed out that if the same statement had been made by a man, he would have ripped a new one by feminists themselves, “Oh. Now if I said that, ‘They’re for Bernie because that’s where the boys are,’ you’d swat me.”
Both comments drew criticism on the social media from Bernie supporters. “Shame on Gloria Steinem and Madeleine Albright for implying that we as women should be voting for a candidate based solely on gender,” Zoe Trimboli, a 23-year-old from Vermont who supports Mr. Sanders and describes herself as a feminist, wrote on Facebook. “I can tell you that shaming me and essentially calling me misinformed and stupid is NOT the way to win my vote.”
