Fox News’ Jesse Watters took exception to Doug Emhoff accompanying Kamala Harris to a store on his show Thursday night, asking viewers: “What kind of husband goes grocery shopping with his wife?”
During a segment on his eponymous Primetime show, Watters slated the former VP for setting up a blog and said that “Mamala” had been “caught” grocery shopping.

We collaborate on the laundry, but I’m the one who folds it and puts it away.

He's better at picking some things, I'm better at others.
Edit to add: "What kind of man?" One who is comfortable with his gender, gender identity, sexuality, and relationship with his spouse, that's what kind of man!

He says I am his friend. Maybe other husbands and wives are also enjoying friendships with each other. Perhaps this is a unfamiliar concept to Fox News (cough-cough) hosts.
patphil
(8,111 posts)Apparently grocery shopping is women's work, and beneath him.
The only reason I don't is because my wife's an early riser, and I'm not. By the time I get up, she's back at the house.
I suspect she doesn't want me to get in her way.

(16,886 posts)who the fuck is jesse watters? All I can think is that he's a shithead with a bunch of money. WOW, a bunch of money and no clue.
Grocery shopping frees a couple to discuss the stuff they don't at home... It's neutral territory except for the ice cream department.
and as a poster above said; you become "friends"

(2,602 posts)... Watters, you flaming fucking asshole. I've been accosted in the supermarket parking lot for pushing a shopping cart more than once by room-temperature IQs like you. Like them, you are too weak of character to behave like a REAL man. And, like one of 'em found out the hard way a while back, getting physically belligerent with a 77-year-old man with a notable dislike of bullies was most definitely not in his best interest. Got his stupid red hat all dirty.
Wanna try your luck, Jessekins?
I thought not. Loud-mouthed coward.

(1,492 posts)I usually go grocery shopping without my wife. She hates cooking and grocery shopping. Watters is and always has been a small minded idiot. Yes Jesse, some men enjoy grocery shopping, with or without their wives or girlfriends.

(7,770 posts)If he's married, his wife must be an ass to put up with him.
NJCher
(40,837 posts)"If he's married."
He was married but had an affair on his wife while they both worked at Fox. So Fox, in their enabling way, put her on another show and later he got married to the one he was having an affair with and they had a kid very shortly thereafter. Never mind that he already had three with the other woman, who eventually left Fox. I think that's it, anyway. Is your head spinning?
And now I think he's up to five kids.
He's not quite as bad as feLeon but approaching there. Both men have mothers who are somewhat distinctive. feLeon's mother is an older model, which is kind of a rare sort of career. She supports his lies and even pitch hits.
Watters' mother, however, comes from a distiinguished family but it sounds like she kind of married down a few notches and settled for a mere teacher. His mother is from the family that started Better Homes & Gardens magazine. Also somewhere in that lineage is The Saturday Evening Post. Plus there is a senator and state Supreme Court/Colorado justice in there. too.
Watters' mom, as I understand it, doesn't buy her son's simple minded approach to the news. She demands proof to his goofy stories and doesn't get it.

After we moved in together a few decades ago, it was very clear that he was very picky about the food that we ate, so I said "Maybe you should do the cooking."
So he did and became an excellent chef. At first I felt a loss of control, but now I love sitting their with my glass of wine and watching him cook.

(58,591 posts)I frequently go grocery shopping with my wife, whether at the farmers market in the town square (open 3 days a week from 7AM to 1:30 PM), or to the local supermarket.
It looks like Fox Noise thinks I'm some kind of deviant kind of husband. Coming from them, I guess that's praise of a sort.

(7,166 posts)He made the grocery hilarious. While I was fussing over produce he'd go find all the lone bananas and use them to spell something or take one over to the apples or oranges and make a smiley face. One time he took a pocket of stick on googly eyes and went to town.
If he caught the guy in meat dept putting out new packs, he'd end up with all the meat dept workers plus a few other guys shopping, having a whole conversation about grilling and smoking.
When our store installed a "moo" when you open the dairy doors, he'd stand there an play with it AND the chicken sound they put on the egg doors. Women would walk by and roll their eyes...smiling. Unless they had kids... then it was "but Mom, HE'S doing it!".
He'd thank everyone who worked there for coming to work. He'd shake hands with the managers and tell them "so and so" is really doing a good job "wherever they worked".
One time when his hair had gone all white there was a little boy acting up something fierce. David walked over and quietly said "I'm watching you", winked and walked away. Oh the shocked look at that boy's face. He straightened right up and started yes ma'aming his Mom. Hilarious.

MineralMan
(149,566 posts)And all of the cooking and cleaning up after meals. My wife doesn't cook, so I don't let her shop. When she does, she buys the wrong stuff most of the time, anyhow.
I like cooking. Learned it in my mother's kitchen when I was a kid doing homework on the table there. My wife said, "I don't cook" when we were first getting together. I said, "No problem. I do."
And that was that.
