Eddie Vedder Calls Harrison Butker a ‘F—ing P—y’ Mid-Concert Over Sexist Speech: ‘There’s Nothing More Masculine Than a Strong Man Supporting a Strong Woman’
articleUm...where did he say that? I read the transcript, closest I can see is:
For the ladies present today, congratulations on an amazing accomplishment. You should be proud of all that you have achieved to this point in your young lives. I want to speak directly to you briefly because I think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolical lies told to you. How many of you are sitting here now about to cross this stage and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are going to get in your career? 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.
I can tell you that my beautiful wife, Isabelle, would be the first to say that her life truly started when she began living her vocation as a wife and as a mother. I'm on the stage today and able to be the man I am because I have a wife who leans into her vocation. I'm beyond blessed with the many talents God has given me, but it cannot be overstated that all of my success is made possible because a girl I met in band class back in middle school would convert to the faith, become my wife, and embrace one of the most important titles of all: homemaker.
Where, exactly, does he tell them to stay home?
Did you not just read what you copied and pasted?
Holy fuck, I mean this part to start...
I want to speak directly to you briefly because I think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolical lies told to you. How many of you are sitting here now about to cross this stage and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are going to get in your career?
Basically telling them they won't accomplish anything.

Then telling them to become religious and stay home for their man. Women who just achieved a degree and are looking forward to their industries of choice.
GROSS.
Is that what you think about SAHMs? That's pretty gross man.
As a corporate controller with a master's degree, my greatest achievement is my kid. My wife thinks the same and has an awesome career, you guys have no respect for parenting. Probably why kids are so screwed up these days.

No, I think it's gross telling women that they won't succeed and it's all a massive lie.

So you agree that women can succeed in their career and still be great parents?
Thanks. We're on the same page.
Where did he say they won't succeed? He literally said that many of them will go on to have successful careers.
Nothing he said was at odds with women having careers and children, all he did was celebrate his wife, does loving your wife make you a p***y?

Right here. He called it a "diabolical lie"
all he did was celebrate his wife
He actually seemed to suggest that before she converted to his religious cult and retired home to be a homemaker, that he didn't seem to think much of her.
Man you think so little of women. Women are consistently sold a lie that they have to be everything all the time, and if they aren't the prefect career woman and the perfect mother then they're failing, and that's not true. They can have careers, and they can have kids, but it's the kids you get most of your fulfillment out of, and yall crapping on SAHM's is just proof of that.
Man, how you wake up in the morning and be like "That man gonna love and cherish his wife? This p***y need to pay!"?
Real talk, you have kids? Cause I got kids and nothing this guy said sounds off if you have kids that you love.
