It is unclear from Reines' email who exactly the "ogrish" men were, but it's clear that Clinton was tackling the issue of sexism within her own staff.
Yet even though Clinton is among the most powerful political figures in the world of either gender, her message that day may not have gotten through to its intended recipient. "FYI I'm pretty sure I saw [REDACTED] roll their eyes at the very moment that you were obviously referring to them," Reines wrote the secretary. "They just don't get it."
As secretary of state, Clinton worked hard to raise the profile of women's issues worldwide, and this work is a key piece of her legacy at the State Department. Women's and family issues, like paid leave and child-care benefits, are also already a major part of Clinton's platform in her bid for the White House in 2016.
