Why make such a controversial speech? Didn’t he take into consideration there were women graduating as well? The speech was not just about women. But when he spoke about women, including his wife he showed respect!! Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker Face more criticism.. Fans argue him to apologize
kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, has become one of the internet’s most hotly discussed people after a commencement speech he delivered earlier this week went viral for its message rife with rhetoric that has been widely recognized as misogynistic and homophobic.
Butker managed to make enemies of several groups with his 20-minute speech, including but not limited to women and female-presenting people, “I think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolic lies told to you,” Butker said at one point during his speech at Benedictine College, a private Catholic liberal arts institution in Atchison, Kansas. “Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world.”He went on to say that his wife would agree with the assertion that “homemaker” is the most important position for a woman, saying, “I can tell you that my beautiful wife Isabelle would be the first to say her life truly started when she started living her vocation as a wife and as a mother.”
He also took time to crusade against Joe Biden and the LGBTQIA+ community, disparaging the existence of Pride month and speaking on “dangerous gender ideologies.”
