[quote=Anonymous]They still graduated from college!!! These women just received their degree.  In what reality are you going to spend the money and do the work to get a degree if you don't intend to use that degree and get a job and build a career?!

"The majority of you" assumes all women in that audience are wrong to want the above.  Instead, they should instead desire to be wives and moms as his own wife's life "truly started" when that happened to her.

How is this not twisted, insulting, wrong on so many levels and gross?

What he could have said was something like this -

In your lives, it'll be difficult times/moments in your all your lives to balance professional goals and desires with the responsibilities of having a family.  Women especially may find it even more difficult than men.

He can definitely remind the audience that between work and family, family deserves a lot of focus.  He can even go so far as to say for women, the responsibilities of motherhood may sometimes be a heavy weight to consider when developing professional goals but that's NOT what he said.

He said to every woman in that audience - you all suck and are idiots for wanting to do anything more in life other than being a wife and mother.  10000% that is what he said.[/quote]
