And for once, Kochie held his tongue.
A woman who presumably started from the bottom and worked her way up to being the CEO of a marketing company has slagged off other women and said they can never run a country.
Her reason? We’re too bloody moody.
Cheryl Rios, who is CEO of a Texas company called Go Ape Marketing, took to Facebook to express her opinion about Hillary Clinton joining the presidential race for 2016 and more or less said it was ridiculous.
“With the hormones we have, there is no way [a woman] should be able to start a war,” she wrote.
“Yes I run my own business and I love it and I am great at it BUT that is not the same as being the President, that should be left to a man, a good, strong, honorable man.”
Related: This is the CEO’s career advice that every woman should ignore.
It all comes down to the bible for Rios, apparently. “There’s an old biblical sound reasoning why a woman shouldn’t be president,” she wrote.
Copping flack for her words, Rios tweeted again about her opinion.
“In this great country we are allowed our own opinions. Mine may be something you don’t agree with, and so be it. I am old fashioned, I am Christian and believe what I have said.”
Related: Hillary Clinton just announced her candidacy. And the misogynists are already out in full force.
The story was brought up on Sunrise this morning, with host Natalie Barr expressing disgust over Rios’s opinion. Everyone was looking at Kochie to see what he would say.
Kochie didn’t say much….

And Testosterone ISN"T a hormone??
I saw that segment when it aired and was a little disappointed that Kochie and Berretts didn't say /agree it was poppycock and move on, as I don't think this tweet deserves much air time (unless they didn't think it was poppycock, which would be sad)
