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!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
