    @ 18:18 “Civis Romanus sum” When travelling across the Roman Empire, safety was said to be guaranteed to anyone who declared, "civis Romanus sum". If you harmed a Roman citizen, Rome would send Legion of troops and just wipe out an entire village. The world should know if they harm an American citizen the same retribution would come to them & and there wouldn’t be kidnapping of any American citizens.

    I'm (seemingly) the first guy that disagrees with the whole 'Women of the West Wing' (literally the first to downvote the vid!) thing.
    Glenn Close (among others, Janel being a constant one!) flies in the face of this naked, politicised sexism! Of course the women were wonderful, but not soully because they were "women" FFS! Grow up, as Sorkin would want you to!
    The title feels like this is bald political opportunism, in a way that even TWW never intended to be!
    Just applaud the performances and the writing, and don't feel the need to needlesly politicise what doesn't need to be!!!
    I really don't think this is what Sorkin would have wanted!!! Laud the perfomances, by all means, and the messages, but don't stoke the needless sexism! It undercuts everything that Sorkin's writing stood for!
    I don't want to downvote this vid but it is, frankly, embarrasing with this title! (Edit - Spelling)

    • @rabbit251
      @rabbit251 5 місяців тому

      A show that was about politics and you're angry that by pointing out the great acting and writing for these actors smacks of sexism. Wow! You are one of those Liberal Lefties who's will to make a point that you believe you see that no one else does. West Wing had some great acting and writing which came together to make a really good show. You should check the dictionary for the definition of sexism :
      attitudes or behavior based on traditional stereotypes of gender roles: Her husband saw their home life through a lens of sexism, and never once offered to help with the housework or the kids.
      discrimination or devaluation based on a person's sex or gender, as in restricted job opportunities, especially such discrimination directed against women
      ingrained and institutionalized prejudice against women
      hatred, dislike, or mistrust of women; misogyny.
      And Sorkin discussed about sexism in the TV show directly. Do that or showing clips of just the female actors isn't sexism.
      Sorry, but I had to give you a thumb downs in your comment.
