Well folks, Barack Obama is back and he’s now lecturing us on how men should act.

Spoiler alert: just like Barack himself, the rules are, ummmm, quite effeminate.

Jesse Watters absolutely nailed it with this one.

Please enjoy:

FULL TRANSCRIPT:

Barack’s got his own rules for men, but these are the rules that made men leave the party in the first place. Barry says guys don’t always have to be the providers, as long as they talk about their feelings.

A lot of male identity and status was tied up with being a provider, having a job, doing a good job, coming home. And when folks started losing jobs because of de-industrialization and offshoring, you had a bunch of men suddenly feeling—

Mm-hmm. Yeah. Lost. Because their identity had been so wrapped up in—one thing—that one thing, which was being a provider.

And so, part of what we have to do is, yeah—Mm-hmm—as men take responsibility for, uh, figuring out how to talk about and share feelings.

We wouldn’t have to talk about our feelings if Obama didn’t send our jobs to China. Do you know how we feel about that, by the way? Angry. That’s why we voted Trump.

But Barack doesn’t just want you on the couch. He’s telling guys to put down the baseball and pick up a playbill. They have to be able to learn how to be more than just the sport that they care about.

Right. And—Um, and they. And while they get great skills in sports and they learn a whole lot of traits—Teamwork. I think we owe it to our boys to be very deliberate about saying, “Enough with sports, and let’s try some other things.”

So, sometimes it’s just a matter of, you know, g-giving, saying to our boys, “You being interested in art and you being interested in, you know, uh—” Mm-hmm. “theater, that’s cool.”

Get off the field and go to an art gallery. And when you do go, bring a gay friend. I had a gay professor in college—Mm. at a time when openly—Yes. gay folks still weren’t out a lot.

Mm-hmm. Who became one of my favorite professors. You need that—Mm-hmm. Well, and it’s—to, to show empathy and kindness, and by the way—Yeah. you need that person—Yeah. in your friend group, so that if you then have—Mm-hmm—a boy who is, who’s, who’s, who’s gay—Yeah. or, or non-binary or what have you, they have somebody that they can go—Mm-hmm.

“Okay, I’m not alone in this.” Right? You don’t have to date your gay friend, but when you do date girls, Obama says, you don’t always have to pay. Make them pay.

We joke that, uh, uh, talking to Malia and Sasha, sometimes they’ll go out with their friends and, you know, they’re in a group and, and the guy’s got crocodile arms, you know? Yeah. And it’s like—

Not picking up the check. Not, not picking up the check. And it’s like, okay, y- y- you don’t have to pick it up all the time, but if you’re never picking it up—Right—that, that’s a problem. That says something about you.

Backup here if needed:

Did anyone else notice Barack’s voice sounds different?

Not that I really care or am complaining because I could never stand the sound of it before, but he doesn’t sound normal.

Anyone else notice that?
