Ok, so normally, I defend VB. I happen to like VB and I think he sometimes gets some unfair and ugly remarks thrown his way for no really good reason. That was until VB crossed the line yesterday on his blog "No Obama/Clinton Ticket?" (see the political blogs).
VB took it upon himself to decree that ALL women were catty and incapable of behaving in a professional manner when it comes to other women around them. While I won't disagree that there are women out there that may not be fully aware of their self-worth and thus take on this attitude, to declare that ALL women behave in this manner is unfair and gross. Seriously. As a tv personality, VB, you have to be aware that people (sometimes impressionable people) are watching and listening and to make such a thoughtless comment only perpetuates the stereotype and degrades women. If you want to have these childish conversations in the privacy of your home go right ahead, but don't be irresponsible on the air. I suggest you seriously think about making a general apology for your comment (although I won't hold my breath). I for one am offended by it and simply don't see you the same way anymore.
Women, please see why it is that we have to fight harder and work harder than men. It is because of retarded views such as this one.
Shameful

"The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary" - Author Unknown. I'm 27 (28 in July 2008). Happily married to Elijah (aka "My Bunny") and have 3 funny and loving cats (Garfield, Peekaboo & new addition, Pocket). I have a great job, although it's not my 'dream' job as a Loan Analyst, but one has to be grateful to have ANY job nowadays. I have a family that I'd die for and a great core of friends that are priceless. I may not have the life people would die for, but there isn't a single thing in it I would trade. Not one. I love to read, nap and hang out in my mother's kitchen. I believe in being decent, kind and helpful whenever possible and do as much as I can to contribute to the welfare of animals. I love animals.
