      Spikezx7 Oscars Academy don't allow an actor to win an Oscar consecutively or within a short span of time even when they deserve it. This is NOT followed by the Emmys, Grammys and Tonys. Hence Audra has six of them. Meryl should have won 4 or 5 more Oscars which she deserved. The comparison is dumb.

    Wow... She's a very successful professional performing artist who has been honored by Obama and is now traveling for work only a few months after giving birth with a sixteen year gap after her first child... and most of the comments are entirely focused on her breasts. Yes, she's a beautiful woman glowing with health and fertility and charm, but she's more than a nice "rack". Clearly she has talent, skill, intelligence, strength and courage. It's pathetic that women are still judged as our bodies before our ideas and deeds and roles and the lives we touch and the jokes we tell... and so on. Can we drop some old double -standards and replace those with genuine respect (same kind as men get and for the same reasons!), please and thank you already?
    ... And yes, I realize the movie clip doesn't do much to back that up. I sure hope there's some more progressive gender attitudes somewhere in the rest of the retelling. But since some folks have trouble getting past her baby's source of nutrition, I'll start: I love the idea of a woman who has won all three of those awards telling the world without shame that she was eating grits off of her daughter's foot. That sounds like something I have done, which makes her easy to relate to. And she has a beautiful voice.

    I think she said ‘It’s OK I’m married,’ as shorthand for ‘Don’t worry I have a support system in place.’ Nobody is thinking beyond their immediate situation when it comes to an audience reaction, I highly doubt she meant it as an indictment of single mothers or whatever y’all are on about.

      There shouldn't be any stereotype. Some people have babies while they are married, some people have babies outside of marriage, some people have babies and get married during their pregnancy. None of these are wrong and the people who have babies when they are married need to stop saying things like Audra did because that's what's keeping the stereotype alive and well.

    I'm glad she qualified it's ok she's having a baby unplanned as OK because she is married. it's becoming too PC to celebrate single motherhood. it's not a good financial situation for most women to get themselves into especially at her age due to the higher risks involved and with 40% of babies now being born out of wedlock the long term financial health of these families will eventually prove itself to be the most rational reason for why it's never has never been a good idea to have a kid alone. I'm not for shaming single mothers bc there are lots of situations that may result in being better off unmarried but this ridiculous stance that a single motherhood should be celebrated as an equal alternative rejects all economic facts against it.

    • @KeybladeMasterAndy

    • @BS_stuG
      @BS_stuG 7 лет назад +4

      People celebrate single mothers for the same reason they celebrate married mothers. Because the birth of a child is a wonderful thing. Not everyone gauges their happiness based on the fiscal consequences of their decisions.
      By the way, I was raised by a single mother. I don't mean to brag, but I'm graduating this May with (hopefully) 5 AP credits, a scholarship for all of my tuition, financial aid (obviously,) and I'm going to my first choice college. So, yeah. Things worked out pretty well.

    • @beddythecorgi4269
      @beddythecorgi4269 7 лет назад

      Jawel Zimbabwe so was I and btw I didn't hopefully graduate with AP I literally skipped high school and went directly to college then onto law school. I can tell you that it is not the norm for single mother children to be able to do what you and I are capable of as the exception. not everyone can get a full scholarship to a good school and with the cost of college rising it's hard for a duel income family let alone a single mother to send her kids to college without having them incur ridiculous amounts of debt.

    • @BS_stuG
      @BS_stuG 7 лет назад +3

      Beddy TheCorgi So, because most children of single mothers don't go on to college… single mothers shouldn't be happy about having children? Makes sense 😒 if you're telling the truth about skipping high school (I'm dubious,) you should be smart enough to understand you can't possibly expect people to react that way.

    • @beddythecorgi4269
      @beddythecorgi4269 7 лет назад

      Jawel Zimbabwe who said I said single mothers shouldn't be happy to be mothers? you're changing the argument to suit the fact you cannot argue with the economic reality of the situation. Single mothers are at a severe economic disadvantage and therefor getting yourself into that situation shouldn't be seen as a great and equal alternative to waiting or not having children until they have a reasonable chance at a dual parent household. that's why I say we shouldn't mislead people into thinking that lifestyle is as "good" as it could be if they were in a dual income household. Go ahead. google Texas Academy of Math and Science if you don't believe me. .... you likely have not been exposed to people outside your class yet if you are still in highschool. 1) having AP credit is expected at the top high schools so as good as it is you don't know yet that what you consider a brag is just what everyone else does who doesn't want to end up poor (most actually competitive high school students who go top schools don't do AP credit but actually do dual credit programs because their schools offer those programs) 2) you may not realise this but as a minority you are being offered scholarships and diversity admissions preference (like I was for being Hispanic) .... you have to make the best of these opportunities period but when you realise that your wealthy peers can afford to take unpaid internships that later in life set them up for dream jobs and have opportunities land in their lap for being so and so's kid you may begin to understand why I say it's so important to have a leg up financially. starting off with a single income for many is too high a burden to overcome. you may understand this when your mom is unable to give you a huge down-payment towards your first home or towards your retirement fund you may understand it. Being rich doesn't buy happiness but being poor certainly doesn't either.
