Michelle Obama: It’s OK for Boys to Cry and for girls to be ‘bossy’

Isn’t it downright sexist to suggest that all little boys must be taught that it’s alright for them to cry and that it’s alright for little girls to be bossy? That kind of thinking goes all the way back to the ignorant days when girl babies and boy babies in nurseries were identified by pink and blue colors. But that’s the ignorant message Michelle Obama delivered to hundreds of school girls and women in mostly Catholic Spain. Stretching like a newly awakened dog to drive home her pro-choice message, advising her audience about how to raise children, “if you choose to have them” (and don’t kill them) her advice came straight out of the Old Wives category:

“Maybe it means telling your sons that it’s OK to cry, and your daughters that it’s OK to be bossy.” All mothers who have them can tell you that little boys cry as loudly as little girls when they don’t get their way and that little girls are not always sugar and spice. Growing up things that have a lot more to do with human behavior than gender obsession. Claiming otherwise is an insult to the intelligence of school girls and women. “Speaking to hundreds of young girls and women in Madrid, Mrs. Obama urged her audience to change “inequalities in our cultures” that hold back women in their daily lives. (Washington Times, June 30, 2016) “U.S. first lady Michelle Obama gives a speech on her “Let Girls Learn” initiative to a group of girls and young women in Madrid, Spain, Thursday June 30, 2016. President Barack Obama and the first lady launched the initiative last year to address the barriers that keep more than 62 million girls around the world out of school.”

(But not in Spain apparently). Given her husband the president’s preoccupation with the girls’ school bathroom, the name of the “Let Girls Learn” initiative should be re-named “Let Girls Have Privacy and Protection from Males Posing as Transgenders in their own Bathrooms”. “Referring to historical progress for women in the U.S., Mrs. Obama referred to Hillary Clinton, saying, “I’m proud to say that this year, for the first time in history, we might just elect a president — a female president of the United States.” (Washington Times) “Mrs. Obama told her audience that too many girls around the world are forced to abandon an education at a very young age to get married and have children. She said her initiative is “about whether families and communities think that girls are even worthy of an education in the first place.” “It’s about whether girls are valued only for their bodies — for their labor, for their reproductive capacities — or are they valued for their minds as well,” the first lady said. “In the U.S. and Spain, she said, despite progress on women’s equality, “men and women are often held to very different standards.” Why doesn’t Michelle give this speech in Saudi Arabia?

“Changes in our laws haven’t always translated to changes in our cultures,” Mrs. Obama said. “And many of us still struggle with outdated norms and assumptions about the proper role for women, especially when it comes to our families and our workplaces.” (Washington Times) The heavily influenced by progressives pop culture has done everything humanly possible to demonize and feminize boys and men. Telling boys “it’s OK to cry” is part of it. Men who don’t burst into tears in the public domain like ex-House Leader John Boehner and certain television hosts are accused of being authoritarian, but never “bossy”, know-it-all women like Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton. There’s no coming relief for graduating classes addressed by Barack and Michelle Obama after January 2017. Obama himself admitted in recent days that he will continue on in some form of public service when he leaves the White House. Count on Hillary Clinton using both Obamas to further the progressive cause after winning the election. Meanwhile how is it that Michelle Obama is a one hundred percent expert on both boys and girls? Could it possibly be that Michelle knows something the rest of us don’t
