Why No Self Respecting Woman Should Vote For Donald Trump

I want to start this article by saying that before this moment, I have not taken part in posting every political opinion I have ever had. I am not trying to say that your opinion is wrong, or that mine is right, however, women in America need to be thinking about what could happen if Donald Trump is our next president.

I see many women that are friends of mine posting their support for Trump on Facebook. From what I can tell, most Trump supporters only support him because they despise Hillary Clinton. While Hillary isn't necessarily fit for the job either, she does, at least, understand the struggles that woman face currently in America, as well as the struggles that we would face under Donald Trump's presidency.

First of all, he wants to close all Planned Parenthood locations nationwide due to the fact that they perform abortions. While this is true, Planned Parenthood also is a place for females to go to for women's health services and STD testing, among other things. Trump does not see women as human, he sees us as something less than that, a body that he can control. Women have the right to abortion, and the most plain reason I can think of as to why, besides the fact that we have the right to do what we want to our bodies, is that it is not fair to force a woman to carry a child that she cannot support and give a quality life to. Additionally, it is not fair to force a woman to carry the child of a man who has sexually assaulted her. If Donald Trump is our next president, I can almost guarantee that American women will go back to being without any rights. When a woman votes for Trump, she is voting her rights away.

Second, if you absolutely cannot bring yourself to vote for Hillary, there are other options besides Donald Trump. At least vote third party. Donald Trump is not even aligned with the Republican party at this point, so it doesn't make any sense to vote for him solely because he is the Republican nominee.

Many women do not understand the gravity of the issue that would be Donald Trump becoming our president. The women who complain now about the inequality between the genders are the same women that want Donald Trump to be president, and I can promise you this - he won't do a damn thing about it. Maybe Hillary won't either, but at the very least she will protect our rights as females because she is one. We must stand together and fight for our rights, because trust me, this man that you want to have in office, will ruin us.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
