		<description><![CDATA[Why do some men hate women, in the U.S. and abroad? Why do they want to beat us into submission? Why do they want to kill us in heinous ways? Why don't they want us to be happy with powerful, singular identities and exciting, fulfilling sex lives? Why won't they let us take control of our reproductive rights without at fight? Why won't they let us be mothers and lovers at the same time, sinners and saints simultaneously?

There exists a pervasive hatred and fear of women in our American culture. Whether movies, television, art and literature reflect or cause this fear escapes my understanding. But it all culminates at a rigid point: collectively, we believe women are one thing or the other, limited by our sex to be either good or bad. The "good" women are loving mothers, faithful wives, compliant sexual partners and obliging victims. The "bad" women reject their obligations to the "good" tasks, opting for personal pleasure. In other words, "good" women sacrifice themselves for this goodness, while "bad" women sacrifice nothing. As an unnamed Hollywood executive said of Ms. Swank, "Her look and demeanor are not soft, so it's hard to see her as vulnerable or as a love object."

Ergo, this Hilary like another Hillary we know, does not fall cleanly into either the "good" or "bad" categories, and is therefore a "difficulty."<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thefemspot.com&#038;blog=3742533&#038;post=1069&#038;subd=femspotter&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
