Vance's grandmother remarks have heavy underlying message [View all]

[Bernardo de La Paz]

The message from the patriarchy as embodied in Vance to women:

Not only should you be raising kids and not working in your reproductive years, but you should not be working in your grandma years because you should be raising grandkids. Never mind that us men rightfully get to frolic and play and muck around with power and creativity and destructiveness.

Women, forget about working and careers and influence. Raise kids and provide for your man. It's your life and your life-long purpose. And if you don't produce progeny, we'll take away your vote.
