Freud famously—in prickly fashion—asked: “What do women want?”
The answer I’ve gotten from a minority of my admittedly super-unscientific sample of female respondents—including Jewish women—is: Trump!
They give lip service to the proposition that Despicable Donald is a desirable “businessman outsider”—but it’s painfully obvious that they really hate Hillary.
As I remember there is a line in Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest along the lines that “before women call each other ‘sister’, they call each other much else first.” My perhaps sexist suspicion is that while most anti-Hillaryites are men, the most venomous and vituperative—need I mention Ann Coulter?—are women.
Paging Doctor Freud, what is the deep psyche-related (and Pysche-related) reason for this? Please enlighten me without defaming me.
