Really interesting clip of a Kansas minister trying to persuade women they consistently need to look good for their men. #belikeMelania

If he wasn't such a butter ball himself Hmm

Sexism really. Women are analysed for their looks far more than men. Lots of bald men with beer guts have an over inflated sense of entitlement because they haven’t had their looks commented on since childhood like most females have

Wait, there was an article in the Times about him yesterday complete with competitive bible quoting in the comments, I'll find it.

"Why do married women let themselves go?" asks man who has let himself go.

With a racist pun on the side.

Hmm

US politics is the result of a post industrial brain-drain that sucked anyone with half of one to move closer to cities that actually had work. This has been going on three decades or more. This may change as there are many who are returning to their region of origin because of inflation and the inability to realistically purchase anything in some areas now.

Kansas doesn't tend to attract talent.

Everything about that man is just vile. Goes to show some people voted for Trump precisely because they saw in him a shared belief that a wife is only worthy if she looks good enough to parade around.

I don't think there's anything wrong with expecting us women to look good for our men. Provided that the same applies to the men.

We're sexual creatures at the end of the day and it's important to remain attractive to one another
