Equal human dignity

"In the middle of the next big crisis, I'm cutting my hair. Believe me, we won't be reading about what war is going on." Hillary Clinton.

A sad commentary on the way women are objectified in the media, as noted in yesterday's writing of the documentary, Miss Representation.  Has a man ever had the physical scrutiny and criticism of media like women often get?  I remember Bill Clinton and John Edwards being criticized for the price of their hair cuts, but not for the style.  Most dementia caregivers statistically are women.  Let us, as women, (and you too men) model treating all humans with respect and dignity.  It is critical for the well being of us all.
