I agree he said it in the wrong way, but is now misogyny to acknoledge that in addition to being really smart she is also a nice looking woman ?

It is wrong, because it’s makes it uncomfortable for women to be in power, or in the public eye.
Every time we allow it, it normalizes the problem, and perpetuates it.

She’s out there trying to make it harder for governments and corporations to abuse our personal data. We want to uplift THAT message, not reduce it to a discussion about her appearance.

Technically not misogyny—just good ol’ fashioned objectification.

IDK, I wouldn’t say calling someone hot is even objectification. You can respect someone who you consider smart and there dimensional and also think they’re hot.

I’d say it’s just inappropriate.
