This has been prevalent throughout this campaign, from the "Trump That Bitch" bumper stickers I have seen on cars to Trump's own comments that degrade and savage women. My question is the same as what is in the article: "Is Trump's behavior something we want our son's to emulate?"

Very good points and I will counter with these: Do women get paid for the same work as men? How about insurance? Does it cost more for a woman or a man to get insured? Let me break it down a little more. If an older woman dates a younger man, she gets ridiculed. If the opposite happens, that guy must be a pimp. Lastly, if a female Tech came to you and boiled you out, what would you say when you got to a private spot or around your boys? You don't have to say it here because I know what you would say because I've said it.
Do men experience sexism? I would be naive to say "no" BUT it has never been institutionalize like sexism against women

SSG Michael Hartsfield - First of all, overall, women get paid more. Check labor statistics. Second, women pay more for insurance because they use it more, check the actuarial stats. While on individual case by case basis you can find what you seek both ways. Now, one thing to challenge. There are more women accepted into and graduating from America's colleges than men. Comments?

Sgt Wayne Wood I'm not understanding what you are asking. If you are asking why there are more women in college than men, I would ask that you reference sociological data. For me, I would say that more women are accepted into and graduate from college because 1) They actually apply for and attend the classes and 2) Men would be almost instantly integrated into the workforce, especially if it's manual labor. Also, even with that college degree, studies show that women make about 80 cents on the dollar, as opposed to men that make the dollar.

Women are almost half of the workforce. They are the equal, if not main, breadwinner in four out of ten families. Theyreceive more college and graduate degrees than men. Yet, on average, women continue to earn considerably less than men. In 2015, female full-time workers made only 80 cents for every dollar earned by men, a gender wage gap of 20 percent. Women, on average, earn less than men in virtually every single occupation for which there...

Sexist comments that degrade and savage women, really?
Stick and stones may break my bones but if the comments hurts it must fit like a glove.
It's not what your called but what you answer to that matters. If women of today can be hurt via comments a stupid individual says about them than obviously they are what he's insulting.
Is trumps behavior something we want our boys to emulate? This question is not worth answering because were taking about words not his actions. All the allegations of people he groped or touched to my knowledge have been disproven or not brought up until now because of his campaign. Even if he were guilty he's no worst than Bill Clinton.
Also this statement of what boys should emulate in words on how to treat a woman is a bad statement to even delve into. For while this article talks about words that he said no one has notice that most of "our boys" are committing suicide in droves as civilians and as military members. No one talked about these boys not having a father or a male role model in school or at home to teach them or raising them. Or the record number of men and boys being expelled from school and jobs over false allegations or false abuse allegations or words. But somehow Trump saying stupid things about women is our biggest concern for our boys not to emulate.
Lastly Hillary R. Clinton has supported, had meetings with and aided some of the worlds biggest terrors ever known to modern times. This woman has broken so many laws, protocols, has more security violations than Snowden and has aided her husband in his sexcapades. This woman has gotten away with leaving a entire team of Americans including an ambassador to die. She's is a walking embodiment of what's wrong with career politicians affecting our government but were worried about Trump's idiotic words. This man has been saying stupid things for a long time and he withstood years of people saying his hair looks like a dead animal and being called ugly by many women. Yet some how now since he's rinning for president he statements are sexist?

So, if you have or had a daughter, you would be cool if some random dude rolled up on her and called her a 'ho? You would just tell her "Stick and stones may break my bones but if the comments hurts it must fit like a glove?"
You better blow that s*%t out!

I actually would tell her that. People can say what they will, but you control yourself and how you respond. If her behavior gave her that name than we need to have a serious talk and discipline need to be administered.
If he puts his hand on her though I will break him.

Why act so indignant about something that isn't true? A fool would rage and show the world that they are no different than the accuser. Also why waste the time or energy? For those who matter would already know your character, those who would laugh and spread a rumor are people that are not to be trusted.
Also the accuser must admit that he messes with whores therefore indicating he is a whore himself which is embarrassing to anyone with a symblance of respect, honor or pride in themselves.
