Why do women find Mitt creepy?

[Moonglow]

I'm a guy, and I feel exactly the same way the lady in the OP feels about Romney. She stated it much better than I ever could have.

Well, you're also a racist, an anti-semite, a bigot, and a moron.

Birds of a feather.....

Romney has made an issue about reversing himself on policies that he should be proud of. It simply shows that to him the gaining of the Presidency is far more important to him than pursueing policies that would be good for this nation. He has aquired too many owe me's to the wingnut portion of the GOP to be trusted in power.

He does try to be the chameleon

Robo Romney could learn a lot from Bender...

You could learn a lot from a 4 year old.

I get the feeling that Mittens does not want the women flocking him.

i dont understand why people think we need a leader who is worshiped by fanatics rather than one who is competant and will lead us correctly.

in other words.... someone *you* agree with. lol..

no one worships the president. but its always really funny when rightwing extremists say that.

seems to me that this thread is also about why your guy is repellant to most women....you aren't really equipped to respond to that.

Women were just found to be 5 pts higher in IQ...Liberals were earlier found to be 10 pts high than cons...

 

[francoHFW]

Romney articulate?

 

[Noomi]

If I was an American woman, I would find Mitt creepy because he has such a fascination with women's vaginas...wanting to ban abortion and all that.

In the last chat, I tried and failed to put my finger on what, exactly, it was that seems to turn people off about Mitt Romney, an articulate, handsome, impressive person. It was evident during the GOP primary season, when voters lurched in desperation from lamebrain loon to loony lamebrain, serial shotgun marriages with doofs and dorks and dummies, rather than resign themselves to the inevitability of this guy. I said I thought he was "creepy," which would explain why Romney had so much trouble attracting female supporters. Seems to me, Number One on the list of things that turns off women is a whiff of "This guy's a creep."

A few people -- all women -- wrote in to explain their visceral reactions to Romney. The best was from Sharon W. Bower, whose view pretty much summarized them all. Here it is:

This is just my read, but when I see Romney, what comes across to me is thinly veiled hostility.

This is someone who is used to getting his way. He does not respond well when he doesn’t. He’s the boss who says that he values your input, but if you contradict him or his goals he will not hesitate to fire you or (better yet) see to it that you get fired. There is a coldness, a calculation about him. He is a man of action, a man who will do what needs to be done. If what needs to be done involves hiding a few bodies, he will find the most effective way to do so.

The façade of good humor, bonhomie and “man of the people” is a paper mask. The eyes looking out of it have all of the warmth and kindness of a cobra.

You’re absolutely right the women are creeped out by him. This isn’t the serial rapist or dangerous drunken frat boy. He’s the guy who would dismiss your thoughts and opinions and remove your autonomy under the guise of loving you. He’s the guy who would tell you, “Trust me. I know what I’m doing. Don’t worry your pretty little head about this,” and mean it.

I guess the sort of women you deal with prefer serial sexual harassers like Bill Clinton.

You are an idiot.

 

[Artevelde]

Best thread I've seen in days. Thanks.

Just shows how stupid you are.

I laugh at these desperate attempts to smear a good man. Keep em coming. It's good entertainment.

Wow__ Really lame logic. But it gives me a laugh to see such twisting. So that's cool I guess.

Why do women find Mitt creepy?

Much as I find Mitt creepy myself, this thread is a good example of begging the question.

 

[NoNukes]

at least the dems mess with women, unlike repubs that go gay when messing around.

Yeah, that Barney Frank is a FLAMING Republican...

He is open about his sexuality, but many hereto's that are repubs are toe tappers.

He is also married.

 

[Claudette]

I don't find Romney creepy at all. In fact I think he's quite good looking.

Of course I really don't care what he looks like as long as he can do the job.

I think he can and way better than the shyster in chief we have right now.

You don't understand why we might want a leader who inspires people as opposed to a leader who is only getting elected because of hate and fear, which is what the Weird Mormon Robot is running on. Seriously?

To be absolutely fair to Romney, I think he's faking it.

I don't think he cares about the abortion issue at all. I think he pretends to in order to win over the votes of the crazies who do obsess about that kind of thing.

That's actually kind of worse, when you come to think of it.

Hate and fear is a powerful inspiration.

Not to mention that his voice always has a whiny edge to it.

Hate and fear is a powerful inspiration.

But they never win elections by themselves.

i don't know if he's creepy. i think he's more arrogant and snarky... and socially awkward around real people.

but he likes sport.
