By now most of us have seen the picture of Kellyanne Conway making herself at home in the White House with a room full of educated black men and women who happen to be the Presidents of Historically Black Colleges and Universities around the country.
Yes, I was outraged but I also felt a sense of sadness for this 50-year-old woman who thought, in her mind, that it was okay to behave in that manner. After all, she's supposed to be a lawyer who should have a strong sense of professionalism about her. I was disappointed that she couldn't see how her actions would be perceived---even if she didn't personally care. There are a lot of people I come in contact with and although I may not like them, I do know my behavior will reflect a lot about who I am or who they perceive me to be. So with that being said, perhaps #45 isn't the only one who needs some mental health counseling.
"Is this how professional
women you know sit, kneeling on the couch with their legs open?
You visit your lawyer and she sits like this? Her assistant sits like this? Kneeling, knees apart?
You visit your doctor and the nurse sits like this? Skirt above her knees, kneeling , legs apart? The doctor sits like this?
You go into you bosses office and she's sitting like this, kneeling in her chair, knees open?
You go to see your kid's teacher or principal and she kneels in her chair with her skirt above her knees, knees apart?
If so, congratulations : please feel free to notice nothing undignified here. It's all okay -- so do not speak badly of any woman who acts like a slob this way. Not any fat woman, not any black woman, not any woman.
If this okay for so-called and Conway -- it is perfectly fine for any woman. No snickering, please.
Just like it is fine for any famous female to grab the crotch of any man she feels like."

My mama used to say you can take a person out of the trailer park but you can't always take the trailer park out of a person---even with a law degree.
