Entertaining read on Amy Comey Bryant as mom and judge.
"...Paparazzi video of Amy Coney Barrett caught her leaving her home in South Bend, Indiana the morning of the official announcement. I watched in awe as she shepherded her brood into her minivan, all dressed up, hair combed, dressed to kill. I won’t tell you what I look like when rushing to make a flight, or to get anywhere on time with my somewhat smaller number of kids, but let’s just say it’s barely a notch above bathrobe, cold cream, and curlers.
In her opening remarks on Day 1 of the hearing she reminded us that “I would be the first mother of school-age children to serve on the Court.” Not only would she be the first minivan-driving mom to serve, she would be the only woman on the current Court with ANY children at all. Sotomayor and Kagan, perhaps unsurprisingly, have a total of zero children between them. This matters! As I wrote in an earlier piece, having “kin in the game” when it comes to making big decisions is absolutely crucial. Amy’s angriest feminist interlocutors this week, Kamala Harris and Dianne Feinstein, have a grand total of one offspring combined...."
Saw an article that said she'd be the most anti-woman ever on the SC. It was written by some feminist who probably deep down hates that ACB is a mom, has a career, a husband, etc - you know, things that most angry feminists hate.

It’s amazing how far the looney left has moved in the last 20-30 years.
The good news is that many of those loons have chosen not to reproduce.

I was thinking the same thing. With no lineage to pass their hatred and idiotic ideas down to, they had to find another way to make sure their "ideas" move forward, so they took over Academia.

I love that quote. "kin in the game."
Women with large families are at a huge disadvantage when climbing up the career ladder. High-achieving men can afford wives who stay at home, but women get knocked out of the rat race by the pregnancy and birth process.
Among men age 41-55, 19% of "ultra-high achievers" have no kids, compared to 24% in the general population. So men in leadership have similar family values as the general population. High achieving men actually have slightly more kids because they are attractive mates.
Among women age 41-55, 49% of "ultra-high achievers" have no kids, compared to 15% in the general population. High achieving women tend to place less importance on family values than the general populace.
