Harrison Butker’s mother’s job has been receiving considerable attention in the wake of his controversial comments earlier this week.
Butker intimated that women have been falsely led to believe they should be part of the workforce.
“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?” he asked the graduates.
He noted that his wife Isabella would be “the first to say that her life truly started when she began living her vocation as a wife and as a mother,” adding that “homemaker” is one of the most important titles a woman can boast.
