In reply to the discussion: Professional women choose a path to misery [View all]ShazzieB
(22,568 posts)56. Wow, it's even worse than I thought!
The Ohio senator and vice-presidential candidate said of women like his classmates at Yale Law School that pursuing racial or gender equity is like the value system that gives their life meaning
[but] they all find that that value system leads to misery.
So the women he's talking about are j7st miserable because they're single. What makes them miserable is "pursuing equality"!
I guess the poor little things just need to face the facts and accept that they will never be equal. Then maybe they can find a big strong man like Shady Vance to take care of them! ***GAG RETCH BARF***

I dunno. He sure is obsessed with reproduction, maybe he thinks 3 kids is not enough?

Same here, and on top of it all I'm a cat lady. And not even slightly miserable.

Is that what he tells Usha? "So my wife had this baby, " Usha? "So her mom took a year's leave of absence, " Usha?
