I am sure she did. Can a black person be racist? If so I am sure she has that award also.

It is completely delusional to claim that if a cabinet secretary married to a woman took two months of paid paternity leave
(without anyone noticing) they would not face the same backlash.

Would they be called "weak" and "little boy"? The things about dog whistles is you can can get away with just about anything.

They same way some used "his husband" when this had nothing to do with who is married to unless your point was he is gay.

So he’s just lousy at the job the rest of the time.

I don't know much about her, so I can't say if I think she meant to use that as a dog whistle, but that's definitely how it comes across.
 I do think the criticism is justified, though. If a cabinet member can be on vacation for 2 months without anyone noticing, their job shouldn't exist.
Paternity leave makes sense to be able to help the the mother and family for a few days or maybe a week or two, but two months is a little overboard.
How does it work with this type of job? I'm guessing most government workers don't get that kind of paid leave. did he have to take time without pay?

The things about dog whistles is you can can get away with just about anything.

The other thing about dog whistles is that only dogs hear them.

I rarely listen to her, and I know that she constantly complains about a shortage of masculine men today (regardless of their sexual orientation).

So is that the new federal government paternity leave policy?

I don't know whether cabinet members are actually covered, but yes, most government workers get 12 weeks paid leave under a bill signed into law by... Donald Trump:

Wasn't this Ivanka Trump's initiative?
