    There is no baby wallaby on my lap as I surf jezebel and answer work emails.
    I feel like I'm in the wrong line of work.

    Duh, male valedictorians realistically expect that they will have the unpaid support staff(wife) to raise their children, keep their house, and quit their jobs to move for their husband's career, if needed. Female valedictorians also realistically know what guys expect of them.

    Oh, and again, though I agree with Ms. Couric to the extent that in my life raising kids has proven to be the bombity-bomb, I want to say to all the Jezebelles and Jezedudes who are and will be remaining childfree? When people give you shit, send them to me. I will tell them to STFU for you! For verily, they should STFU.


    It's a little service I provide.

    Hey, maybe the achievement gap between men and women could be narrowed by not firing women with children? Or not refusing to hire them when they're pregnant? And maybe more women would apply to get their Ph.D's if they thought they could actually get a job in academia once they'd finished.

    I totally believe that 18 year old girls are already worried about work/life balance. When I was in college, people (advisors, internship employers) were already advising me on careers that would be "good for women" since they would allow freelancing, working from home or dropping out for a few years to have kids. Young men are never given this advice. You can't advise girls from the start to plan their lives around family, then be surprised when they set up goals that do just that. Oh and by the way? I probably won't have children, for many reasons. So that planning totally doesn't apply to everyone.

    In my life, for me, nothing is more rewarding, challenging or important than motherhood -- but damn, I sure wish a man would stand up some day and say the same thing about fatherhood.


    Well, at least I married a guy who knows it. Go, my guy!

    @ellaesther: Totally! I don't mind the statement - everybody is allowed to have their own priorities, but i mind that it's exclusively the domain of women to enjoy family life.

    @deeemer: the thing is i mind it at a university graduation. i probably shouldn't but for as long as society doesn't tell young men the same thing then I do have a problem with it being part of a graduation address, regardless of priorities. Society already tells young women that motherhood is all important, i see no reason to keep reinforcing the message endlessly.


    It's not that i don't find motherhood all those things, I do, it's that I truly believe that a graduation address should be used to reinforce the stereotype.

    I love Vanguard Journalism on Current, so I'm kinda freaked out that two of their correspondents are being held in North Korea. I can't believe it's not getting more press and I'm really worried about them!!

    I don't know if the whole HPV vaccine/guys don't care about women's health is fair. How many of us get an HPV vaccine out of concern for our dudes? That wouldn't be why I'd get one: it doesn't mean I don't care about men's health.

    @LaComtesse: Yeah, I agree. I'd get a shot to protect my husband's health, but I'm not signing up for a shot to protect any future sex partners if it didn't benefit me at all. Sorry, I'm just not that altruistic.

    @blueberrypancake: @LaComtesse: Right. I think there's a difference between protecting a loved one in particular, and the desire to protect a bunch of nameless men you may do it to in the future.

    Today was depressing, but soon we will have cake in an awkward real-life tribute to "Office Space", so I guess that's... um... er... ugh.
