Fox Host: Feminism To Blame For More Children Being Born Out Of Wedlock

Fox News host Andrea Tantaros blamed feminism during Wednesday’s episode of “Outnumbered” for the increase in the number of “unmarried cohabitating couples” who are having children.

Tantaros noted that “men specifically are opting out of marriage” and criticized this “sexodus,” a term she credited the conservative news site Breitbart with creating.

“Women have been encouraged to give it up … freely with the rise of feminism, have sex like a man,” Tantaros said. “So, they’re doing this and they’re not making the guy step up to put a ring on it.”

Fox News contributor Dr. Manny Alvarez noted that immigrants may also be responsible for the increased number of children being born out of wedlock.

“For a lot of times, it’s cultural,” Alvarez said. “There are many people coming to this country where that is a norm, where people meet, they get together, they want to have a baby. And bingo, they come back here and they don’t think about the marriage thing.”

  1. Yeah, never blame the man…

    I would not trust anything Tantaros says for being accurate.

  2. So, wait. This isn’t teh gayz’ fault? What’s up with that?

  3. At least she did not blame this on rap music or Obama.

  4. Thanks Obama!

  5. So they now have another Latino jerk.

    In the Catholic Church I attend, the sacerdote barely can be heard because of the fact that the iglesia is full of MARRIED working men and women who bring their children to church.

    I lightheartedly opined on another post that the Right was going to swing and swing and swing at as many types of people other than conservative men as possible.

    And until the Networks (including FOX) are made aware that there is a mass of 70% of the population for which this kind of Non News is not acceptable, FOX and its sister arm, the MSM, are going to go rolling along. We already know that about 70% of the population agrees with most of the positions most of the people who post here have.

    They just have to be made aware that we all have a right to vote.

    I had earlier suggested a $100,000,000 ad campaign. Even $1,000,000,000, if that’s what it takes.

    That stuff works:

    How else to people get convinced to buy all of this stuff they don’t need? And, in this case, we NEED to take back our politics from a small, but ideologically zealous group.
