Because women can choose what they think about

Instead of thinking about how they would be voting for a man who is horribly sexist towards women...I'm sure some there were women at the ballot box who preferred thinking about "how beautiful and successful and what a great mom she is..."

"Trump once said that putting a wife to work 'is a very dangerous thing… unfortunately, after they’re a star, the fun is over for me.' Ivanka is clever and successful, but she offers no hope for nine out of ten women who haven’t been born into a wealthy family, been blessed with good looks and a skinny body. Easy to tell women they need to 'architect' their own lives, if you’re married to a man from a wealthy background and you are sitting on a fortune."

"Women come in all shapes and sizes, and one of the biggest problems Trump will have to overcome is that hardly any of them come packaged like his wife or daughter. The danger signs are already apparent – listening to Nigel Farage on the radio last week, I felt a sense of revulsion as he joked about making sure Donald 'didn’t try and grope' the Prime Minister when he came to 'schmooze' Theresa May for a trade deal, adding: 'Don’t touch her for goodness’ sake.'”

When women act like passive extensions of a patriarchy that degrades and objectifies women.
