Unpleasant video footage of reinstated Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson has emerged in which he appears to advise young men to marry underage girls because they are easier to control.
In the 2009 Sportsmen's Ministry talk, Robertson, 67, who began dating his wife when she was 14-years-old, advises his audience, 'You got to marry these girls when they are 15 or 16. They'll pick your ducks' - which is a literal reference to removing dead bird's feathers.
Warming to his stereotypical redneck theme, Robertson, who was suspended from the A&E hit for nine days earlier this month for homophobic comments, tells the gathered crowd that in addition to being young, the girls have to know how to cook and carry a Bible - 'That'll save you a lot of trouble down the road.'
While the speech given in Georgia is recounted in a somewhat tongue-in-cheek manner, in light of Robertson's strong views on traditional family values - protected by the First Amendment - they seem slightly inappropriate.
His advice for a happy marriage, which he claims is a kind of 'river rat counseling', is that all men 'Make sure that she can cook a meal. You need to eat some meals that she cooks, check that out.'

KABOOOM!
Norm blows up the whole thread.
Runs it right off the track and down a dirt road.
Way to go, Norm!
:D
[it’s such a brutal planet]
Yes, I can’t help but notice that you really don’t care about facts or history, you just want to rage on about something that you want to rage about, you chose an opinion, and you want to win something.
Getting personal, getting off the subject, anything you can do that you think turns it into a shouting match, you hope will work to create a fake reality.
All the guys took shop.
We even had an “Engines & Motors” from which yours truly emerged with the highest grades.

This happened the lest time he and I went round the maypole on this issue. We agree on most other issues, but he is willfully blind to the world he lives in on this.
Long live the Lord of Salem ;)
That you slam in the back of your Dragula?
Can’t be. Since it never happened even though they admit it happened but only in certain...
Oh hell I can’t keep up with the fantasy.
I have no idea if they even teach that class anymore.
We had Home Ec in middle school too (man, I feel old). It was coed -- for some of the guys, it was a way for them to "play chef" and impress the girls with their cooking skills. :) It was a valuable class. I am not sure it is still being taught at that school.
‘56 Cadillac Sedan de Ville covered in gray Velvetex.
Like they say, “If everybody liked the same thing, we’d all be married to your mother.”
Ansel, blue is the color of the sky in the world where young marraige was common. What color is it in the world you came from? Just so we can avoid any further cultural misunderstandings.
I bet you secretly like wind farms and solar panels.
:P
Me too ;) Hey your real name wouldn’t be Charlotte by any chance would it? We had a girl in our shop class that was better than almost all the dudes with a wrench and a Heliarc....
My high school home ec [in case we’d forgotten the other class, I reckon] was also co-ed.
We ended up kind of ‘pairing off’ with the guys.
An older guy named Mark was my ‘husband’.
He’d come into the room and yell “Where’s muh supper, woman?”
That was a fun class...:D
Sheesh.
‘73 VW Beetle.
[I’m very flexible]
See now this is why younger marriages are so important. you learned your place early...
/Ducks and runs screaming ;)
There is a huge windfarm about 60 miles South of here.
I have to drive through it frequently on my way to Indy.
Creepiest feeling you could ever imagine.
The whole landscape just screams out that there’s something *WRONG*.
Nope.

[and the crowd gasps!]
To this day, I am handy with hand and power tools.
My dad insisted I learn those things.
My sister, OTOH, is helpless.
He never let me weld, though.
Neither will hubby.
I think they don’t trust me with large amounts of fire and electricity.
>:-)
LOL!
