Democrat Illinois Representative Jan Schakowsky suggested in a Congressional hearing that the word ‘Manufacturing’ is sexist.
Yes, really.
Because it begins with ‘man’ it is somehow holding back women from going into the manufacturing industry.
Schakowsky, the ranking Democrat member on the House Commerce, Manufacturing and Trade Subcommittee, for some unfathomable reason, posited that only around 13 percent of people in manufacturing are female because the word itself just “sounds like a guy.”
Us: Let's lead the way and bring jobs back to America 💪🇺🇸

Democrats: "Manufacturing" is a sexist term against women! pic.twitter.com/dTeHDafCUH
The word originates from the Latin manu which means ‘hands’ and factum which means ‘made by’.
Yeah, made by hand. Anyone’s hand. Male or female.
For the love of god @janschakowsky @RepSchakowsky the word “Manufacturing” has absolutely nothing to do with why women aren’t working in that field! I sure hope the people of Illinois decide to vote Republican next election because you are a disgrace! https://t.co/LXzZkF5Rm5

The reason there are less women in the industry is because it is one of intensive physical labour and women are, believe it or not, biologically different to men.
This is what DEI nonsense does to leftist brains.
Democrats really REALLY have some stupid people in Congress.

What qualifies this 80 year old politician to talk about young people going into manufacturing?
In addition, the hearing was about the impact of AI on the industry.
Just a guess, but old Jan is probably not that up on the latest developments in AI.
But hey, let’s police language again!
Manufacture, manifold, manifest, manor, mantle, manner, mantra, maniac, mantis, manila… is she kidding? Do you want to rewrite the entire English language because a woman might be offended by a word that begins with “MAN“? Are we really capable of being that “man”ipulated? https://t.co/F85zBeBN0q

She’s a maniac. Aw, did it again.
And "menstruate" has "men" in it. So what's your point, lady? https://t.co/2Ay7TpLxur

She probably wants to mandate that companies hire women.
Man, just can’t stop doing it.
What does she think about the “rat” in Democrat? https://t.co/g6BrgupuNU

What might Jan want the word changing to?
Ma’amufacturing? https://t.co/E4HcJExUEM

Schakowsky: We should rename it personfacturing to attract more women!

Women: Yeah, that’s not helping and it’s monumentally stupid that you think it would. https://t.co/HG5dvi89rq
Please go on Jan...
Democrats, please keep trotting out these lunatics.
