Winstead: ‘Society Refuses to Accept Complexity in Women’

Comedienne Lizz Winstead lashed out at society for its treatment of women during Saturday’s “Melissa Harris-Perry” on MSNBC after being asked if Vice President Joe Biden would be standing in the way of Hillary Clinton for the Democratic primary nomination if he were to run in 2016.

“The thing I find myself getting rageful for women is that society refuses to accept complexity in women,” Winstead said. “And men, it’s a given. And for us to not be able to say, ‘Sometimes I have to check myself where I’m at emotionally, because things happen.’ But women are forever and have since the history of time had to balance and function with many juggling emotional things happening at once and we have done it.”
