Except that no one applauded Trump for saying that. At most some made excuses for it, and voted for him in spite of it, just as many made excuses for outrageous behavior from Clinton because they liked other aspects of him. Trump is right, powerful people can get away with outrageous behavior others can't.

There is a huge difference between a society approving and encouraging something, and a society tolerating something, and a society feeling helpless to stop something.

I'm more worried about a society encouraging, applauding, demanding extreme female modesty and full devotion by women to their reproductive role at the expense of a social role.
