Within American elections in particular, candidates of both sexes and also of a variaty of gender identities find themselves subject to the presures and cultural expectations and judgements thereto. Both men and women, straight or LGTBQA, face certain levels descrimination if such gender expectations are not met. Prime examples of such descrimitory rhetoric and gender expectations were demonstrated in a number of elections, most notably Sarah Palin's presidential campaign in 2012, and the recent Donald Trump v. Hillary Clinton election of 2016.
