Why As A Woman, I Refuse To Vote For Donald Trump

Arrogant, racist, and disrespectful are just a few adjectives I would use to describe Donald Trump. His carefree, no filter, “say what you feel” demeanor is not only unprofessional, but embarrassing. His inappropriate caricature-esque facial expressions, and unnecessary grunts are obnoxious and annoying. He is the epitome of under qualified, and in my opinion one of the worst candidates America has ever seen. Donald Trump has expressed his negative opinions towards different races, religions, and women. Calling Mexicans rapists, black people criminals, and women disgusting, are just a few of the things our GOP nominee has said. Recently after watching Hillary Clinton’s “Mirrors” commercial, I was not only angry and nauseous, but genuinely concerned for every woman who intends on checking his name on the ballot.

Here are just a few of Donald Trump’s statements regarding women.

You know it really doesn't matter what [the media] writes, as long as youve got a young and beautiful piece of ass

Horrifying to say the least. Donald Trump has no problems degrading and objectifying women. “As long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of ass”, he says. By this quote Donald is insinuating that it doesn't really matter what anyone says about you. After all, your object, I mean your trophy, I mean your woman, is all you need to feel better.

You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever

America was shocked after hearing this Trump quote directed to Fox News persona, Megyn Kelly. When has it ever been appropriate for a candidate to publicly embarrass a news figure, by implying she is on her period?

If Hillary can't satisfy her husband, what makes her think she can satisfy America?

Hillary Clinton’s ability to “satisfy” her husband, for one, has nothing to do with the election, but honestly isn't any of America’s business. As far as her satisfying America, let’s not forget Clinton’s list of achievements. Hillary was not only a former first lady of both Arkansas and the United States of America, but a New York Senator and our 67th Secretary of State. Can she “satisfy” America? She most certainly has the unparalleled qualificaations to do so. #HillYeah!!!

But the look obviously matters. Like you wouldn't have your job if you weren't beautiful.

In a society where the definition of “being beautiful” is so skewed, this could possibly be the worst thing a young girl could hear. Eating disorders, suicide, and lack of self-esteem are all the results of girls not feeling “beautiful” enough. On top of hearing society’s harsh definition of “beautiful” through magazines, TV programs, and your peers, you get to hear your President make you feel even more worthless. No jobs for the “ugly” girls, sorry ladies.

Youre disgusting

These words spewed from Trump’s mouth during a disposition when a female lawyer asked to pump breast milk for her 3 month old daughter. After all,

Well you know, pregnancy is neverits a wonderful thing for a woman, its a wonderful thing for the husband, its certainly an inconvenience for a business. And whether people want to say that or not, the fact is it is an inconvenience for a person that is running a business

Do you think Donald would suggest this woman quit her job? After all, “it is certainly an inconvenience for a business”

You have to treat em like s**t

This one speaks for itself. Published in New York Magazine in 1992, Donald Trump expressed his opinion on how women should be treated.

Donald Trump’s lack of compassion and empathy are two things America does not need in a leader. Trump continues to regularly surprise me with his insensitivity. The wage gap, racial equality, and the “we can do it” movement are all reasons why these Trump comments are important. Come on ladies, it’s time to demand respect and vote for someone who respects you!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
