Did I look up pics and info on Jake's wife? Yes, what better to do on a Friday afternoon at work? Is it just me or does it look like that dog has an Eagles thing on?

May 17, 20241 yr 8 minutes ago, we_gotta_believe said: He literally said women are being told the most diabolical lies about their futures as they were graduating from college with a degree. If you haven't listened to the full speech, I really suggest you do. Play close attention to the part where he says that while some women will go on to have successful careers, the majority of them will be more excited to get married and have kids. Not to mention the parts where he claims being gay is "deadly sin with which society has granted an entire month to take pride in" or That's a strawman and you know it. Nobody is telling these girls they are failures for being stay at home moms. He's become the butt of a few jokes on the internet, that comes with the territory when you say some dumb sheet in a very public setting. I listened to it. First, yeah they are. As I said the dean of my university told me he said exactly that to our valedictorian and that was years ago. It's also a theme in our society unless you choose to ignore it. You don't need a man. You don't need to settle down. You don't need to have kids. "I want to speak to all of you briefly. Because I think it is you the women who have had the most diabolical lies told to you. How many of you are sitting here now about to cross this stage and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are going to get in your career. Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world....." Then he talks about all of his success was cause of his mom. Poorly worded but I agree. It's not something I care enough to go back and forth on so I concede many may feel differently

I mean, if you actually listened to that part word for word and are still confused as to why people are branding it as misogynistic, I don't know what else there is to say. We can just agree to disagree I guess. Quote Then he talks about all of his success was cause of his mom. Poorly worded but I agree. I don't think he mentions his own mother at all. He talked a lot about how his wife's life didn't start until she became a homemaker but I don't recall him talking about his own upbringing. His mom, ironically, is a medical professional in radiology. The point is, the concept of professional and personal successes aren't mutually exclusive. You can do both, just as his own mother did. There are no "lies" being told to women who are encouraged to pursue professional careers, especially on their literal day of commencement.

Out of all of it I still don't get why a kicker is giving a commencement speech.

It was poorly worded but he was trying to say stay at home moms aren't failures and went on to talk about the impact mothers have on their children. Honestly, that's true. I'm sure many had mothers who could have gone on to corporate success but gave that up to take on another rewarding career that doesn't always get the acknowledgment it deserves. It's also true that many see giving up a career for a man or a child isn't what a woman should do. The dean of my university specifically told me that he told our valedictorian she was wasting her life by becoming a homemaker after graduation. People are so sensitive they have to flip the hell out because their pitch forks haven't been used in a few weeks. I watched it. He was trying to puff out his chest and hold himself up as en example of ultimate masculinity, which came off as hilarious.... because he's a F'n kicker

I was never Trump; they sucked me in, and now my eyes have been opened a year or so ago to there is not one damn party that gives a crap about any of us. I'm not independent but I sure won't blindly vote GOP. I think our country would be in a much better position if more people took the approach of I'm not voting for someone just cause it's a binary choice or party loyalty.
