In her press conference, she compared pornography's effect on women to the Holocaust's effect on Jews during WWII, and stated that making a film that was sympathetic to a man like Larry Flynt was comparable to making a film that was sympathetic to Adolf Hitler. Stepmother of actor Christian Bale Told ABC's John Stossel in 1995 that women make better firefighters because of their lack of upper body strength, reasoning that dragging victims out of burning buildings keeps them away from the smoke. Though she was a staunch supporter of Anita Hill and fierce opponent of Clarence Thomas, believing that Thomas had committed acts of sexual harassment against Ms. Hill, she gave her full support to President Bill Clinton when numerous women came forward to accuse him of sexually assaulting them. Most of her critics believed this was the case because Thomas is a conservative Republican, while Clinton is a Democrat. Steinem herself is a lifelong supporter of the Democratic Party.
