Harrison Butker | Commencement Address 2024
#85
I don't want him cut because he is a misogynist and said stupid stuff. I want him cut because he suddenly catches a case of the yips causing him to miss multiple field goals for the Chiefs leading to their 2024 losing record.

As the token woman on this board, I thought his speech was offensive to women. I know plenty of conservative Catholic men who follow the faith and don't think like he does. As a Catholic, he is supposed to believe in and follow the tenets of his religion as presented by the Pope. He believes in a church that existed over 60 years ago, before he was even alive. Just like many evangelicals he is rejecting the mainstream of his religion while embracing the extremes. And you have to wonder if he is using religion to justify his own bigotry. He didn't word his viewpoint as if he was offering options. He didn't say that the women should do what is best for themselves and their lives and he was simply reminding them of other options. No, he worded it in a fashion that the big strong alpha male knew better what was best for them than they did themselves. It was paternalistic and condescending rejecting the notion that those college-educated young women could think for themselves.

Women have fought too hard for the rights we now have to turn over our fate to men whose thinking hasn't left 1960
 

 Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.
