J.D. Vance: Women who have not given birth, such as Kamala Harris, are “childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives,”

The idea that JD Vance is cornering the market on toxic rhetoric is hilarious. It's going to take him a lot longer than three months of it to catch to his political opponents. And of course those complaining about his style now, were likely praising it when it was directed at Trump.

Vance isn't criticizing a politician like Trump or Biden for their policies, he was criticizing the supposed lifestyle of women in a particular political party.

Is Pete Buttigieg a woman?

I'm sure that everyone who talks of heaven feels sure that they know the truth.
yes, we do and it's a distorted truth. Heaven is for those who have faith in who Jesus said he was. If it comes to actions I would be the first in the line to hell.

That is sad. Will the Republican party ever return to the times of classiness, such as what it was 20 years ago, and especially back in the 1970s-1980s?
Not just the Republicans but both parties. Media loves to stir the pot.

...ah, and there we have it. Both parties are flawed....so let's just ignore J.D. Vance's comments. This is same old argument used to dismiss comments by DJT....comments that up to 2016, would have ended the race for any candidate.

What changed?

Such a statement as that will alienate women.
Not just women. A LOT of people under the age of, say, 45 resent the pressure to have more kids than we want / than we can afford / than we think we can manage. It's a massive sore spot.

G-d said to Moses, "Speak to the women first"

The fundamentals........

Faith, trust, love, awe, these are principally the woman s domain.

....so Harris should pick a woman VP? : )

Just a question, do Republicans and/or right-wingers tend to look down on childless women? I have to admit, this really bothers me when they do this.
I doubt all of them do, but this notion just reeks of a certain sort of authoritarian paternalism that's astoundingly out of touch.

...and JD's comments imply that women (or men) who become parents through marriage (blended families) are somehow less worthy.
