Woke Actress Insists She’s a “Threat” to Straight Men
Woke actress Chelsea Handler recently insisted that she has faced backlash from straight men because they are “threatened” by her during an appearance on a podcast. Handler has faced criticism in recent years for being overtly left-leaning in her comedy, particularly as she has glorified being a middle-aged childless woman.
The 49-year-old comedian made the remarks about the apparent “threat” she poses to straight men during a conversation with Kelly Ripa on the “Let’s Talk Off Camera” podcast. The two spoke about Handler’s decision not to have children, where she has faced backlash for her crass methods of glorifying the life choice.
“I just have this sense of freedom in my life that I don’t feel enough women celebrate,” Handler said on the podcast. The comedian further claimed that she was fueled by men who pointed out that anti-natalist sentiment is a bad message to push on women throughout society. “So when I started celebrating it and getting the feedback from so many women who feel the same way, and then the feedback from all these idiot men saying I’m not really happy and shame on me because I’m spreading terrible messaging to women, that just obviously gave me even more of a motivation to do it,” she added.
Handler then took a shot at men, claiming they lacked “self-confidence” for expressing disagreement with her life decisions, particularly as birth rates in the United States are declining, well below the rate of population maintenance. “I’m a threat to a lot of straight men who don’t have enough self-confidence,” she said. “You shouldn’t find it threatening, you should find it empowering that I’m spreading this message to other women; if you want to have a baby, for sure get one, but if you don’t want to have a baby that’s valid, too.”
Handler continued to tout anti-family rhetoric, stating, “Your value is not dependent on whether or not you’re married and your value is not dependent on whether you procreate. I want to spread joy and positivity and I want women to feel valued. My purpose is to embolden and lift up women. I’m not here for men, that’s not my problem.”
For context, Handler generated controversy in a 2023 post on social media, which outlined the “Day in the Life of a Childless Woman.” In the clip, Handler explained her morning routine, stating, “I wake up at 6 AM. I remember that I have no kids to take to school, so I take an edible, masturbate, and go back to sleep.” She added, “get ready for a busy day of doing whatever the f*** I feel like.”
The senator then called out odd behaviors that Walz has displayed, stating, “I really do think that whatever Tim Walz calls me, I mean, talk about talk about weird with Tim Walz. I don’t know if you guys saw the rally yesterday, but afterwards, his wife up to him, and Tim Walz does what any normal Midwestern guy would do, seeing his beautiful wife on stage after a speech, he gives her handshake, right? That’s pretty that’s pretty weird. When I see my wife after a speech, I got a kiss because I’m excited to see her, and she’s my wife.”
Vance also claimed that the whole “weird” narrative has come from young social media interns in the Harris campaign that are projected their trauma on the Trump campaign. “I think that a weird argument. Twenty-four year old social media interns who were bullied in school and they decided they’re going to project that onto the entire Trump campaign,” he said.
Further redirecting the argument back at Harris and Walz, Vance took shots at their records. “And the reason it doesn’t make sense is because you ask who’s weird, right? Is, I think it’s pretty weird to be the borders are and to open up the border and allow fentanyl to come into your community. I think it’s pretty weird to try to take children away from their parents if the parents don’t want to consensus exchanges. That’s something that Tim Walz did. I think it’s pretty weird to want to defund the police. I think it’s pretty weird to pretend that you’re a tough on a crime prosecutor San Francisco, such a disaster when it comes to crime and public safety. So if they want to call me weird, like I got my wife here, I’ve got three beautiful kids at home, I’m a normal guy who wants to live the American dream and wants all of you and your kids the American dream,” he emphasized.
