Those are the answers I'm looking for, facts and reasons. You don't need to back it up with female politicians you like when your are listing real reasons for disliking her.
She's hawkish, bitchy, power hungry, or things about her personal life etc, are not very good reasons imho, though of course everyone is entitled to their opinions. These are the reasons I often see on social media, and they seem more gut feel than logic. Which is fine for personal reasons why a person doesn't like her, but isn't much in the way of convincing others, which is what I was asking for.
Perhaps you don't find it convincing, but have you considered the prospect that you are part of the 90% who has unrecognized biases in your views?
I dislike hawkishness no matter the gender; I think American foreign policy has for too long been too expansive and intrusive upon the affairs of other nations, and too wasteful of the lives of GIs, American prestige, and our limited budget. That is not about her personal life; that is about her policy positions. And I've listed a couple here, and more elsewhere.
I never have called her "bitchy", so tossing that at me is bullshit.
As for matters of personal life, they damned sure speak to character, and are fair game. I don't see you defending Trump against his attitudes about women or minorities on this basis of "that's personal". I wonder why?
