"Women still stereotyped," whines Australian politician Penny Wong

Are men stereotyped?

I'd say we are subject to all manner of stereotypes, in particular from women, and in extra- extra- particular, from feminists.

If men and women are both stereotyped, then is Penny Wong's complaint still valid? Possibly. She comes across as shrill and silly, as do most of the well-off, indulged, western public women figures of today who complain about everything while living caviar lives. But lets suppose her complaint is valid nonetheless. If she is being stereotyped, doesn't she notice then that isn't a womens' issue if men are being stereotyped too? Why doesn't she acknowledge what men deal with, as well? Why does she act in such a typical way, and exclude men from the conversation, and pit men against women? Is it that she has been rewarded her entire life for playing the gender victim card?

Do people like this believe that male politicians are never subjected to harsh criticism in free societies?

George Bush and Barack Obama are 2 of the most frequently-attacked people I have ever seen. An absence of criticism is not expected in the case of male politicians, why should that be the case for female politicians?

Amazing absurdity coming from a woman who dresses like a man and gets away with it. She also whines about being called shrill and hysterical. Keep in mind this is Australian politics -- if all you've been called is shrill and hysterical you've had a pretty good day!

Politician bemoans the use of diminutive language directed at female politicians like "shrill and hysterical" or “throwing a tantrum”. OP describes her as "whining".

Does this not prove her point?
