Let's Talk About It: Wife Guys? Masculinity Gets Political Ep. 323
Manage episode 446529418 series 2780441
We’re in the midst of a series on masculinity, so I had to weigh in on this one, and I looped in Producer Tim to get a Millennial male’s take.
You’ve probably seen the clip of Jen Psaki interviewing Kamala Harris’ husband, Doug Emhoff.
Psaki claimed Emhoff has, “reshaped the perception of masculinity.”
Really?
Psaki then called him a “wife guy.”
Okay . . .
And sure, maybe Doug Emhoff is a super sweet and supportive husband. That’s great!
But, there seemed to be a partisan subtext beneath this exchange. Watching the clip, I had the sense Psaki was insinuating only liberal men fully support their wives.
I wanted to share my reaction to this clip and, Tim agreed to join me.
Spoiler alert: Over my 27 years of dating, I’ve had relationships with both very liberal and very conservative men. I married a conservative. And no one has ever cherished, respected, and adored me more than my conservative husband.
So personally, I’m not picking up what Psaki is laying down.
Join us and let us know your thoughts masculinity and wife guys.
