“Young men must be respectable and responsible to inspire young women to be secure with feminine goals of homemaking and having children,” he told the crowd. “Every effort must be made not to recruit women into engineering, but rather to recruit and demand more of men who become engineers. Ditto for med school, and the law, and every trade,” he said.
He also expressed nostalgia for the time when “women used to have many children when the odds of dying in childbirth were actually very high,” apparently lamenting the availability of birth control. Yenor has not yet commented publicly on the uproar over his comments, but after video of his speech went viral, he reshared it on Twitter and doubled down on his stance, writing that “our independent women are more medicated, meddlesome, and quarrelsome than women need to be.”
While some students have called on the university to take action against the professor, a spokesperson for Boise State made clear in comments to the Statesman that Yenor will not face consequences.

I disagree with what he said, but it's a good thing that he didn't get cancelled.
