0:00:33.159 --> 0:00:35.040
<v Speaker 1>at the left wing New School in New York City,

0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:39.879
<v Speaker 1>complains that men invented this thing called likability and that

0:00:40.000 --> 0:00:42.560
<v Speaker 1>men are the ones who benefit from it. In a

0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:47.000
<v Speaker 1>New York Times op ed, Professor Potter says likability emerged

0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:50.600
<v Speaker 1>after the Civil War. Before then, everybody was hateful. Middle

0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:54.680
<v Speaker 1>classmen thought that their business success came from projecting virtue

0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:59.840
<v Speaker 1>and character being likable. By the twentieth century, likability became

0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:04.480
<v Speaker 1>a staple of the Madmen advertising gurus of Madison Avenue.

0:01:05.200 --> 0:01:09.960
<v Speaker 1>Then it supposedly moved into politics. Hillary Clinton lost to

0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump because she suffered from not being likable. Now

0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:18.039
<v Speaker 1>six women are running for president, including Amy Bocahatas, Kamala

0:01:18.200 --> 0:01:22.039
<v Speaker 1>and Kirsten but they aren't well liked either. Men are

0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:25.600
<v Speaker 1>getting all the good press, sucking up all the oxygen

0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:29.319
<v Speaker 1>in the room, and the money as usual. According to

0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:34.920
<v Speaker 1>Professor Potter, women politicians are unfairly burdened with the likability challenge,

0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:39.319
<v Speaker 1>even though it's nebulous, arbitrary, and meaningless. It's just not fair,

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:44.720
<v Speaker 1>ms Potter. The twenty Democrats running are all trying to

0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:50.320
<v Speaker 1>outliberal each other. Male and female. Are nothing likable about liberalism.

0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:54.200
<v Speaker 1>Leftists aren't likable, and you can take that to the bank.
