Jon Stewart on Caitlyn Jenner and media portrayals of women

[lovemuffin]

I saw this clip from the Daily Show about media reactions to Bruce Jenner's transition to Caitlyn Jenner, and thought the point being made about our culture's treatment of women was especially sharp and well made. I thought it might be of interest.

It's sad that Jon Stewart is retiring. But his points were spot on. It doesn't matter if your a politician, an Olympic hero, or just a random woman in the crowd, society is way too obsessed with the appearance of a woman.
And some people say we don't need feminism.
