    Fellow ladies, it wasn’t that long ago that women had limited rights – far less pay, blatant misogyny in the work place, less power within relationships, couldn’t have property, bank accounts, etc.

    I’m almost 60, and I’m shocked when I remember – or am reminded via video, etc. – if the BS women had to endure daily. AND WE STILL DO! It’s just gone moderately underground.

    “She’s ah very happy being taken care of by a man. And she has no uh uh aspirations to be taken care of by a woman.”

    Note that Lily Tomlin, while not publicly out, was known around Hollywood to be lesbian, and she met her future wife in 1971, which may be what he is referring to there.

    Tomlin [told the New York Times](https://www.nytimes.com/1976/06/06/archives/lily-tomlin-not-just-a-funny-girl-behind-the-ringydingys-is-a.html) a couple of years later, when asked about the moment: “It was a perfectly pure act. I felt angles walked me off.”

    Lily Tomlin does two of my favorite voice roles: Ms. Frizzle from Magic School Bus and Aunt May from Into the Spiderverse.

    Both of those roles are such cool grown women.

    This is disgusting on so many levels but the thing that gets me the most is that he objectifies the wife and mother of his kids but SHE has to make sure his feelings aren’t hurt according to these two buffoons.

    Tomlin has always been a legend. Huge supporter of events and causes that few others even noticed.

    The manosphere is teaching young boys to talk exactly like this again. I could hear a podcaster say this today and I wouldn’t be shocked. We’re so cooked

    I didn’t know Chad Everett was a dirtbag. If he was so comfortable saying this stuff on air, imagine what women had to put up with behind the scenes.

  8. “she has no aspirations to be taken care of by a woman.” the dig at her for being a lesbian was so so nasty. fuck this guy.
