Michelle Obama"Are we protecting our men too much, so that they feel a little entitled

So what does she suggest?

Regular beatings and public humiliation?

A good way to end up in a rocker in front of the TV instead of the family plot.

"Are wu protekin men too much"
Do you feel over protected Michael?

How many sons, exactly, did she raise to gain these insiights?

Its like she bent over and just pulled words out.

Glad to see she's still as not classy as she was the last 8 years in the WH.

None, but she's smart.

What a disgusting bigoted, racist Michael is.

He must be projecting about his and Barrack's relationship.

Michell's athletic build aside, she seems to be a very difficult person.

I can see pissing her off just with a casual conversation. Like talking to an pro abortion zealot or fascist vegan.

Is this in the context of the recent spate of sexual harassment/ assault stuff coming out left and right?

I am just asking as I thought that was the context and now I'm not sure.

ETA - in other words, men may feel "entitled" to women's bodies?? Or like they can get away with whatever because boys will be boys?

I'm not saying Inagree, I'm still looking for context.

An ad hominem is not an opinion. It's a personal attack. But you know that.

I'm sure we do disagree about a lot of things!

No.

My opinion is that this person is a bigoted, racist.

There is amble evidence to support this view.

What a sexist tool. Michelle Obama is irrelevant.

Wish I could agree with you.

She and Hillary are very relevant and very powerful.

Does the phrase "snap my fingers, snap you neck" mean anything to you? They have that power.

a reply to: seasonal


Relevant with the cult, maybe.

She has no impact on my daily life, except maybe a good laugh at the next ridiculous thing that comes out of her mouth.

Cult-wise, didn't she coin the moniker "when they go low, we go high"? What ever happened to that campaign cry, anyhow?

a reply to: JBurns
3 words.

President Michelle Obama

President Hillary Clinton

Look what Barack Husein Obama got done. Does any of his legacies make your day to day living harder?

I'm nearly 50 and my mum still acts like I can't feed myself when I go round there.

My wife is the same with our boys too. But I don't think it leads to entitlement. Least, not when I am around to kick those same boys in the rear and make them do stuff for themselves.

a reply to: SprocketUK

Women VS men do treat both boys and girls differently than men.

Men (wide brush stroke) are less worried about the child's feelings. For instance after asking little Johnny or Suzy to pick up the toys 3 times a man may raise his voice to get the toys picked up.
I fall under this umbrella. I do not care, to a certain extent, if my child is upset if I made friendly attempts to get a chore or a particular action done but had to raise my voice to get the child's very limited attention.

Women (again wide brush strokes) care if the child's feelings are hurt when they get yelled at.

That is a key difference between men and women, and thank God there is a difference.

Not a bad point there. Though you ought to hear my mrs when the third time isn't the charm

There as a great radio 4 show a while ago about the nature of the father/daughter relationship and that was really funny, hearing how it isn't just me getting wrapped around my girls little finger and going all Victorian with regard to hemlines
