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.”

Well I DID hear him say that Walz doesn’t have the lobes to support an administration…
I actually inadvertently laughed out loud
“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>”
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
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.
What’s with the weird incel language going on?
Even The Handmaid’s Tale didn’t constantly refer to women as “females”.
Does that mean if a white guy gets divorced and loses custody of his kids, he becomes a purposeless entity?
“That’s DIFFERENT”
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
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.
To be fair, this is a legitimate scientific hypothesis (the Grandmother Hypothesis) that attempts to explain why human females, unlike almost every other species, have a lifespan that outlasts their reproductive cycle. It’s just hypothesis, and even if it’s correct, drawing conclusions about women’s role in modern society based on a trait we developed before agriculture is just stupid, but what he’s saying isn’t as crazy as the headline is implying.
“It takes a village”
The single family unit isolated from outside help, whether it be community or extended family, while raising children is a pretty modern phenomenon.
Yeah, pretty much nothing in our biology has prepared us for late stage capitalism.
evolutionary biology doesn’t dictate my purpose as a man, nor should it dictate the purpose of a woman.
we’re not raping and murder machines and they’re not child rearing machines.
there’s no “to be fair”
It’s a small and feeble mind that seeks the comforts of broad categorization.
I bet you say that about all broad categorisations.
