But for Vox writer Matthew Yglesias, none of these gestures are enough. Male candidates for president must do one thing and one thing only to prove their commitment to treating women as equals on the playing field:

Drop out of the race and let a woman win.

I mean, nothing says “I’m down with viewing a woman as my equal” like urging her male opponents to step aside so she can get ahead, right?

It's the feminists unspoken motto: I want to be treated fairly by having the more qualified people step aside so I can prove that I can almost do it as well as others.

So, proactively lowering the bar helps the movement?

Nutshell.

Let’s treat women equally by making it easier for them than men.

My kid feels awesome when he blows past dad and hits a jump shot on the 7th attempt, but that don't make him good at basketball.

So this guy is basically saying that women can't win on their own and the only way for that to happen is for men to step aside.

Sounds a little sexist, but something tells me he's too blind to see the irony

I've been saying for years that somewhere along the line, feminism converted from "I am powerful" to "come on daddy, let me win".

Feminism is about infantilizing women. Treating them like I might treat my 5 year old child if I played them in checkers.

It's pathetic

I agree. Those betas should step aside and let the crazy bitches take the stage.

This is pretty much affirmative action in a nutshell.

He should quit his job so a woman can have it. Am I doing this right?

This is a great idea.

But, what if Joe Biden "comes out" as a Woman trapped in a man's body? Could he then run as a woman?

It's not just feminists. It's the official Doctrine of Diversity.
