Well.....I did not agree with a lot of it, but I don't quite get all the hullaballoo. That message was decidedly on brand for a Catholic college. If you listened to a Nazi college commencement you would get Nazi rhetoric, and if you listened to a Berkeley commencement, you would get the other end of the spectrum.
Having a stay at home parent whether it's a woman or a man is great for the children. But the bottom line of it is this. For most of history, women did the stay at home parent roles not because it brought them inner joy and they felt it was their calling, but because it was the least shitty of their available options. There are still over 10,000 people alive in the US that were born before women had the legal right to vote.
If men really want women to embrace the wife and homemaker role in todays world, they need to make it the best option of their many available options. They must stop with the subjugation. Because let me tell you something as the father of 2 pit viper daughters...... they will not be subjugated.
