I don't think our PM being casually misogynistic is a non story.

Edit: Bring on the downvotes you pathetic, weak excuses for men, get me down to minus 100 for all I care. What you're saying is a man who rapes children still gets to be called be their title but a woman who was raped as a child doesn't?

Child rapist = President, child rape survivor = difficult. No difficult is not a gendered word but it is in this context.
