(American Greatness)—A bitter Hillary Clinton recently belittled conservative women, calling us “handmaidens to the patriarchy”—a demeaning reference from the dystopian novel A Handmaid’s Tale, in which women are subjected to sexual slavery by men.
Hillary’s miserable marital relationship with a known womanizer has obviously impacted her outlook on other women. Yet that’s no excuse to attack a large swath of the American public.
Hillary should realize conservative women are more like honey badgers than handmaidens and stop projecting her own insecurities onto the world. She needs to look in the mirror and see her own handmaid’s outfit. Hillary defended her philandering husband after he took advantage of young women—using one of them to pleasure himself in the Oval Office. Not only was he guilty of infidelity, but he also made a mockery of the presidency.
Hillary belittled women and demonized male leaders in a single statement. As a proud conservative woman, I value the strong men in my life and the important patriarchal roles they play in our family. According to Oxford, a patriarch is the male head of a family or tribe. This nation needs more families with strong patriarchs, not fewer. Children are suffering because fathers aren’t present in their lives. Our country is foundering because men are no longer valued as leaders of their families, thanks to people like Hillary who degrade them.
