    Free speech means that people are allowed to express beliefs that the majority does not want to hear.
    Free speech also means that the majority has the right to criticize a speaker when he says dumb things.

    I understand freedom of speech, but there is a time and a place to speak your opinions/values, and I don’t believe that a graduation commencement speech was the time or place for this. Several of the students who attended this speech, particularly female students, have publicly stated that they felt extremely uncomfortable or offended by his speech.
    He confidently stated that the women in that room were more excited to start families than to pursue careers or business endeavors. Personally, I felt very offended by this assumption. I’m not saying that I don’t value family, but I value my interests, education, passions, and career path just as much, if not more.
    He expressed his offensive, and frankly, quite sexist and homophobic opinions at a commencement speech, targeted at a room full of young people who are just beginning their careers/adult lives.
    I don’t understand how anybody can see this and defend it.

She worked and left our kids at daycare and was miserable. If she would’ve heard this speech, it would’ve defined her direction. So why are people so upset about this view. There wouldn’t be an uproar with the other views of go conquer your career…also it’s a call for men to step up and sacrifice in order for a mother to best thrive.

      I’m really happy that your wife found the life that was best for her. I fully support anybody who chooses to be a stay at home mum or dad. The problem with this speech is that the message to all of the women in that room is that they should want that too. All people (male or female) should have the freedom to find their vocation through prayer, through following God’s guidance and through experience. What he did was inform the women of their vocation. He is not God, he doesn’t know these women, he doesn’t get to make that call. What’s right for your wife and his is not necessarily right for every woman on the planet.
      I am absolutely certain that my job is my vocation - God designed me with the skills and talents, resilience and empathy to serve him in my work. He has also given me a beautiful daughter who I love raising. I feel no pull to give up work because that is not who God made me to be.
      If men are all different and can be called to any possible career, why wouldn’t women be the same? Why would we be blessed with talents, skills and enthusiasm for something we were not designed for? I do my job because it is what I was designed to do and I am certain that God is happy that I am doing it. This man cannot tell me otherwise.

      That women were lied to, that LGBTQ people are perversion (because they do not fit his errant religious beliefs). That the previous administration's Pandemic Team overstepped, everything he said was wrong.

    Once again be loving, nurturing caretakers. Our society needs a paradigm shift. Our children are depressed, suicidal & have no idea who they are because the disintegration of the family is so heavily promoted. Thank you for your common sense, Harrison. Let’s hope women become brave enough to do the real family work

    As a Catholic, he is 100% right. All the liberals who claim he is homophobic and misogynistic need to cry us a river. It’s just funny, listening to them complain about him and what he did. I’m not a Chiefs fan whatsoever, but props to Butker for his amazing speech.
