Michelle Obama says men are 'entitled,' 'self-righteous' because women protect them too much

Fox News

Former first lady Michelle Obama explained Wednesday at a summit in Chicago that she believes men are “entitled,” and that women protect them too much.

Speaking at the first Obama Foundation international summit, Obama -- one of the event’s headliners -- said that men are essentially babied and protected by women, while women are raised to be “strong.”

“It’s like the problem in the world today is we love our boys, and we raise our girls,” Obama said. “We raise them to be strong, and sometimes we take care not to hurt men -- and I think we pay for that a little bit.”

“Y’all should get you some friends,” Obama joked. “And talk to each other, because that’s the other thing [women] do -- we straighten each other out on some things, our girlfriends.”

She continued: “It’s powerful to have strong men, but what does that strength mean? You know, does it mean respect? Does it mean responsibility? Does it mean compassion?”

Obama went on to question if women protect men to the point they feel “entitled” and “self-righteous.”

No way; I’ve never met a non-black woman who liked her. She isn’t a pleasant person, and white ladies don’t need a condescending lecture from her.

It makes perfect sense if you consider how Valerie and Michelle had to coddle The One for 8 years.

Isn’t Michele stereotyping 1/2 the population, just like we have been taught not to do?

Not sure what the lady means. I do know she’s not in the white house, so..., nope, my care needle didn’t move.

She would have a better understanding of men if she had married a heterosexual.

gotta laugh ... The Obama Foundation ... a page right out of the Clintons’ on how to get rich quick without producing a thing or providing a service.

Hmmmmmmmmmm, Moooooshant,

--That must be why men die so much younger?
--That must be why men are so much more isolated, lonely?
--That must be why men are so much clunkier at building close functional relationships and maintaining them?
--That must be why men are plagued with so many more stress related diseases?

--That must be why men come out on the short end of the stick almost all the time in custody battles and property divy-ing up in divorce situations?
--That must be why men anesthetize their pains in epidemic numbers with alcohol and other addictions?
--. . .

Moooooshant, perhaps you need to go back to school. You might start with kindergarten--it appears you haven't learned some very simple basics about life--as well as about relationships.

And, frankly, Moooooshant, a good percentage of USA's citizens have had more than a stomach full of your treasonous, inane blathering. There must be a small remote island off Anarctica somewhere quite suitable for your "retirement."

Oh is that what’s wrong with her, too?
