Justice Ginsburg was often asked when there would be enough women on the Supreme Court. Her response: “When there are nine.” She also shared this wisdom for a happy marriage: 'Sometimes it helps to be a little deaf.'

People wanted to give her awards. They wanted to hear her talk. Ginsburg was invited to speak so often that inevitably she was asked the same questions and delivered the same punch lines, always, it seemed, to a delighted new audience.WHAT SHE HAD IN COMMON WITH A RAPPER

So Ginsburg’s husband went to the school and was told James had “stolen the elevator,” taking a group of kindergartners for a ride. “Getting the first job was hard for women of my vintage,” she’d say. “But once you got the first job you did it at least as well as the men and so the next step was not as hard.”Ginsburg also liked to note something Justice Sandra Day O’Connor would say: “Sandra said, ‘Where would the two of us be if there had been no discrimination?’ Well, today we’d be retired partners from a large law firm.

There will never be 9 women on the SC. There willalways be a mixture of M/F.

So now we find out Ginburgs was sexist... That's definitely a black spot in her legacy...

Cisgender justice is blind but judges must menstruate.

But what if the court gets packed and only 9 of the 31 justices are women?

So no men on the SCOTUS? That sounds sexist.

She was a sexist!?🤯 (I joke of course. Because there is no context of the conversation. She could have been having some lols too.😅)

So the goal isn't equality. Gotcha.

Can we stop talking about RBG like she’s some hero? As far as I’m concerned she’s done more good for republicans because of her selfishness than she’s ever done with democrats

Republicans have no principles

She wasn't a saint. She was an ideologically driven justice who selfishly stayed in her seat when she became ineffective. She was driven by her political views, not the Constitution.

Yeah I disagree... Trump has the perfect WOMEN nomination that I’m pretty certain Ginsberg would not agree with.

When will there be enough men? When there are 9. See how that works?

Yes, that “when there are nine” response is so self-defeating for feminism. Not even the most extteme opponent says there should be 9 men. She was incompetent as a justice

This country needs millions more people like her ..Much more Love than Hate

When will there be enough men? “When there are 9”.

Taking advantage of this by Trump is a travesty and reinforces his blind drive to win the Presidency at any cost.

RIPRBG

Eye roll

Dumb?

So she was an extremely biased, vicious sexist? Disgusting!!! 😦🤢🤮👎👎👎

I thought the left liked diversity? An all women Supreme Court would be quite a contradiction.

Yikes 😂😂😂

IDIOT, RBG.

Nine? So much for equality

Awesome. Honor her now Trump and nominate a woman!!!! Do it ASAP!!!! And Mitch, do you duty and CONFIRM HIM FAST!!!! Make RBG proud!

I won't read this article and I also feel especially anarchist today when they just oppress people anyway

Everyone in the world should use the “helps to be a little deaf”.. Sometimes things are said that shouldn’t be heard or even said at all.

Here’s one
