7. When Asked By A Reporter Which Clothes Designers She Liked, Clinton Responded "Would You Ever Ask A Man That Question?"
A bizarre interview in the far-flung town of Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, in 2010 saw then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton give one of her most-famous quotes. The exchange between the interviewer and Clinton went like this:
Interviewer: "Okay. Which designers do you prefer?" Clinton: "What designers of clothes?" Interviewer: "Yes." Clinton: "Would you ever ask a man that question?" Interviewer: "Probably not."
Clinton then continued to lambast the interviewer for asking such a sexist question, and this remains one of her most-famous quotes to date.
