sexist stuff

Hillary Clinton wrote an impassioned piece in the Guardian recently calling for renewed action to stop violence against women which, on the face of it, is all very nice and good. Except I have a problem with it.

This violence against women. Who perpetrates it? The article never specifically states who should stop being violent towards women but you are left with the overwhelming sense that Hillary means men. It's as if no woman has ever been violent to another woman which is clearly farcical.

What makes the article a little strange is that, in her position as Secretary of State, she advises on US foreign policy and the US seems to be dropping a large number of bombs on people at the moment (Is there a difference between violence committed by the state and violence committed by an individual?). Are these bombs fitted with smart technology so that they only target men?

Violence in all its forms should be discouraged Hillary and not just when the victim is female.
