“A man could break the mold of American virtue. A woman challenged stereotypes at her peril,” he writes. “The archetype — an unimpeachable balance of dedicated public service and exemplary mothering — seems inescapable, even in 2014.”
What in the hell does that even mean?
I think they mean that it’s ok for guys like BJ Clinton to do his business and get away with it and be a hero to the left. But they’re wrong in general, cause the more she lies and acts bizarre the more the left will love her too.
It’s TimesSpeak for “there’s a double standard”.

I think it means we aren’t supposed to say it’s wrong for a mom to abandon her children (and two husbands) to pursue a career. Frankly, I don’t give men a pass for doing that, so why should I give Wendy Davis one? In fact, I don’t even accept the propagandist’s, aka author’s, point that Americans in general give men a pass, since even leftists go after deadbeat dads with a vengeance.
