Former Hewlett-Packard CEO and GOP presidential candidate Carly Fiorina, who has spoken about the sexism she’s faced in the corporate world, turned the tables a bit in a new video she recorded with Buzzfeed.

“How do you walk in those shoes?” she asks a man wearing sneakers at the beginning.

“You like to bake — how about you handle the cake for Gina’s birthday?” she asks later.

Ms. Fiorina, who announced her candidacy in early May, has been an aggressive critic of former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton and gave a speech at the Competitive Enterprise Institute last month about the state of women in America.

“A feminist is a woman who lives the life she chooses,” Ms. Fiorina said. “A woman may choose to have five children and home-school them. She may choose to become a CEO or run for president.”

The only female candidate in the Republican presidential field, Ms. Fiorina might not make it onto the stage at the first RNC-sanctioned GOP debate Aug. 6. The debate is limited to the top 10 candidates in an average of recent national polls. She was just outside the top 10 at 1 percent in a Fox News poll released Thursday.
