JD Vance agreed with the notion that raising grandchildren was “the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female,” an unearthed 2020 podcast shows.
Vance also seemed to concur when the host suggested that having grandparents help raise children was a “weird, unadvertised feature of marrying an Indian woman.”
It’s the latest in comments from the Republican nominee for vice president about women and “traditional” roles that have drawn ire. Vance has faced intense criticism in recent weeks for previous sexist comments, including his remarks about “cat ladies.”
you know, it’s great. with both parents working, having a grandmother who raises them when the parents can’t is an invaluable blessing. it’s great for the kids because they feel more free with a grandparent who pampers them; it’s great for the grandma and makes up for the empty nest after her own kids grow up, you know you kind of miss looking after small kids, the way they talk and laugh is irreplaceable… it’s great for the parents who maybe don’t have the privilege of staying at home…
you know you could have said stuff like this. the underlying sentiment can easily be relayed like a human being. but no, you had to go with “that’s the whole purpose of postmenopausal female”. fucking weirdo.
More importantly, maybe grandma doesn’t want to raise your kid? My mom was helpful as long as she felt like it. My mother in law moved away so she didn’t have to feel guilty telling her kids she didn’t want to be a free babysitter anymore. When my kids were small I was annoyed, but as I get and feel older, I much better understand it.
Vance’s underlying sentiment is that women are only to be valued for their ability to pop out babies and keep them from ruining his naps.
Somebody should totally hack his phone and change all his ringtone to baby shark and cause every call marked “spam” or “telemarketer” or “blocked” to instead be treated like a priority call.

Does that mean if a white guy gets divorced and loses custody of his kids, he becomes a purposeless entity?
“That’s DIFFERENT”
Dude did you miss the part of your own sentence that said “white guy”?
This means he has a penis. And it is white. I don’t understand the question.
Well they plan to remove a woman’s ability to get a divorce, so if the white guy wants to keep his kids he just doesn’t divorce his wife. Problem solved! /s
It really implies that grandfathers are useless lol. Only grandmothers have purpose.
That’s why women live 10 years longer on average. God made it saw. Man dies, woman raises grandkids then dies. /s
Women are for reproduction use only. Men can fuck couches and dress up like women but their place is out in the world. Doing the tough jobs like I did when I was a US Marine, risking my life to write press releases and enjoy it in the rear, hahaha, that’s what she said. I am not weird, you’re weird. When a woman can no longer produce babies and her womb has dried up she should devote her time to raising the children of her husband’s young new baby machi…I mean grandchildren. In conclusion, Donny said I could say the n-word any time I want if he gets elected and he would also buy me a nice new sexy suede couch and he promised not to deport my brown wife and our Italian-level white children." - James David “My Preferred Name Is JD” Vance
I thought his name was Jorkin Depeanus
Well, you certainly live up to your username! Damn! Tell em how you really feel!
How is grandparents helping raise your kid an “unadvertised feature of marrying an Indian woman”? I thought that was called “having a loving family”, so I guess I can see why that’s an “unadvertised feature”, but of marrying into a family that isn’t full of shit bags, not of a particular race.
Yep, I bet it’s a side effect of being raised in a negative conservative family and assuming all good families are like yours, because in that world familiar = good.
Need to remember that with grandparents in particular, he has a skewed view. He was raised by the parents of his drug addict mom, he doesn’t have the “normal” frame of reference and may not realize that ALL grandparents are generally expected to (and most want to, in my experience) help with their grandchildren if they can.
If you don’t like women you’re gay
It’s only gay if the balls touch and you forget “no homo”
Goddamn, he’s such a creepy weirdo.
It’s a small and feeble mind that seeks the comforts of broad categorization.
I bet you say that about all broad categorisations.
He’s a man in eyeliner. He can categorize broads however he wants. /s
I thought this was not the onion
I love Vance for quotes like this.
More please - we still have a few weeks until November for him to continue sticking his foot in his mouth.
this shouldn’t be ok with more than %4 of the population, but here we are, with %40+ thinking it just fine
raising grandchildren was “the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female"
You can’t say he isn’t charming.
What, you don’t talk about women like you’re in a nature documentary?
I hate pretty much everything he says but I hope they keep him out there just saying the dumbest shit he can think of
What’s with the weird incel language going on?
Even The Handmaid’s Tale didn’t constantly refer to women as “females”.
I know this is probably rhetorical, but there’s probably room for further discussion. Strong overlap in the two groups with their transphobic binary gender/biological sex beliefs that is used to reinforce the “female make baby” beliefs. Also, distancing language. Hard to say if there’s room for course correction. Incel results don’t seem to deter incel thinking.
“Why didn’t she just keep her job, give us part of the wages to pay somebody else to do it?” he asked. “That is the thing that the hyper-liberalized economics wants you to do. The economic logic of always prioritizing paid wage labor over other forms of contributing to a society is to me … a consequence of a sort of fundamental liberalism that is ultimately gonna unwind and collapse upon itself.”
“It’s the abandonment of a sort of Aristotelian virtue politics for a hyper-market-oriented way of thinking about what’s good and what’s desirable,” he added. “If people are paying for it and it contributes to GDP and it makes the economic consumption numbers rise, then it’s good, and if it doesn’t, it’s bad … that’s sort of the root of our political problem.”
It’s really funny when conservatives are like “See the problem with Wokeness is <describes capitalism>”
