Tomi Lahren Doesn't Speak For All Women

I am a proud America-loving, law-abiding citizen who will more than likely never vote republican.

Tomi Lahren Doesn't Speak For All Women
TomoNews

Tomi Lahren is a 23-year-old, fresh-out-of-college TV host that grew up in a military family. Her rants and political opinions often take the Internet by storm, and while I admire the confidence and the “I don’t give a flying you know what” attitude she wears, I have a problem with the picture she is painting of me, my family and my beliefs.

In her video “The Real State of Women,” Tomi attempts to talk about her opinion of the issues of women's equality in America. While doing so, she not only dismisses the pay gap, but refers to the issues as “mystical women’s issues” as if they are not real and us liberals just need something to bitch about.

Tomi, you managed to score your own TV show right out of college. Please, please do not try to act like you are part of the working force of women. You are a TV show host who will get to wear expensive dresses the rest of your life, so take a seat on that issue.

You praise young women who are conservative who want to fight for change and economic growth, but yet you slander young women who identify as liberals by calling them “liberal whiners” who are working towards equal pay, rights and a better environment.

I don’t see how that makes sense. You want everyone to be empowered and stand for what they believe in, unless they are a liberal because then they are just whiney, bitching and lazy, right?

And the “over paid Hollywood attendees at the Whitehouse” who were speaking about women’s issues like birth control, abortion access, the pay gap and many other issues America faces, were there speaking on behalf of those who are not on a platform to do so, just like you so proudly do for the conservatives in the country.

Access to birth control is a real issue for many women out there. Any basic knowledge of the medication would also lead you to the conclusion that it’s actually helpful with a number of medical issues and is not just for preventing pregnancy. I was lucky enough to be able to afford birth control when I was in high school, and still am now, and you know why? Because my period is so painful and so excruciating to me I was getting sick from it, and was missing school and other opportunities I worked so hard to get.

You are proud to be a “red, white and blue-loving conservative” and that is fine and dandy, but you do not get to paint the other side as anything less. You do not get to portray me, my family and millions of other families out there as lazy whiners just because we call ourselves liberals. I am a proud America-loving, law-abiding citizen who will more than likely never vote Republican. I am a proud feminist who will always stand up for equal rights for women.

Those are my final thoughts for Tomi Lahren, may God bless her, and may God bless America and every single person in it, no matter who you vote for.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
