"Who Hates Women Most? Pence, Trump, or Weinstein?"
You can already see where this is going (Skwire in italics):
Vice President Mike Pence won't meet alone with women.
Meanwhile, guys like Donald Trump and Harvey Weinstein won't keep their hands off them.
Almost the same thing, obviously!
Pence's camp would have women kept in some sort of professional purdah, where important avenues to public influence and power are cut off because it is just too morally dangerous to interact with women on equal terms.
Trump and Weinstein would have women brought front and center—as long as they're showing off a lot of cleavage and getting groped—but only as signals of their masculine power and success.
Not dining alone with women who are not his wife — not a completely insane policy on both sides, you'd think — doesn't seem to most people to involve cutting women off from positions of influence and power. It's almost as if feminism is driven by hysteria and irrationality, but we shall return to that topic another day.
