Sexism and Sarah Palin
When in the course of history we have firsts, or in this case seconds, like Sarah Palin's historic candidacy for vice president, it is vital that we monitor the prejudices and biases revealed by the ways in which these groundbreaking people and moments are discussed. But just as vital as pointing out sexism is pointing out criticism that is not at all sexist, and keeping Palin's boosters from bastardizing feminism in such a way that it loses meaning.
