    I don't doubt that, I just don't see the sexual angle in that headline, honestly, sincerely. If anything they're infantilizing her by not taking her seriously and comparing her to little red riding hood n shit - but sexualizing? I dunno

      They literally called her "hot to trot" which literally means sexually lascivious. Yes, they were trying to make a Trostky pun but dude, c'mon. Also just as a New Yorker, they do horny shit like this all the time. It's disgusting.

          Are you a native English speaker? It's an older term anyway, it's usually a euphemism that old crusty fucks use to mean horny.

            tbf I've never heard the expression either. Might be an age gap thing as well? Or regional?

              It's totally an age gap thing, it's like even my mom wouldn't say it, only much older folk.

            No, I'm not. It being older would explain why I didn't know it, or rather why I've just never heard it before (at least consciously)

              My grandma, who is nearing 80, would say it. Like just picturing her leaning to my grandfather as they're sitting in their chairs reading their papers talking about how Mexicans are going to ruin the US, and then he flips back to the front page of the Post (run by Rupert Murdoch) and all of a sudden the Cialis kicks in and he can slip it to my grandma for maybe five minutes before his erection withers like a slug covered in salt.

              Anyway what were we talking about?
