I thought it was a good talk. I still think it was a good talk, and people are blowing this all out of proportion. She didn't say anything that I thought was even a little bit offensive. Even the stuff about cleaning. IMO, men generally aren't any good at cleaning anyway. Women do a better job at it, so they probably should be spearheading the efforts to make sure the home isn't turning into a dump.
