Double Bind



Via Feministing.

Yes, that is Katie Couric asking Hillary if she was known as "Sister Frigidare". It's also a question that limits the possible replies. If Hillary claims it's an inappropriate question, the hidden accusation becomes true. She has to reply in a way that leaves the question as valid. Insidious.

Hillary, good job for turning that into humor, but I wish it was possible to attack the question.
