When it comes to discussing physical appearance, we rarely hear men who run for office being described as "ugly" or "cute" but often a woman who runs for office is first analyzed for how she looks. If her hairstyle is unattractive, if she's overweight, these things are often the focus in news reports more than what she has to say. Is this fair? In a race between two women, will attractiveness win over experience? Many may laugh about Donald Trump's toupee, but just let Hillary Clinton be seen with her hair uncombed - she's blown the election! Is this attitude toward feminine beauty in politics sexist? How do we change it? Can it be changed?
