On a panel with Anderson Cooper, Van Jones and Gloria Borger, CNN commentator Jess McIntosh called the Democratic presidential candidate's debate in Charleston, South Carolina was "difficult and chaotic and frustrating."

Later on Twitter, McIntosh added another take on the evening's events.


She posted in regard to the conduct of most of the male candidates:

People appreciated the old stereotype about women being turned on its head.




Some said it was strictly a cultural misunderstanding.

Although some quickly pointed out that not every man in the debate yelled as a tactic.
