Kelly Stafford doesn’t mind having a man to take care of her — even if she knows men themselves are far from perfect.
Stafford, 35, explained her stance during a recent segment of her “The Morning After” podcast with friend Hank Winchester in which the two discussed the popular 100 men vs. 1 gorilla question that has taken the internet by storm over the past week.
“I’m not a hardcore feminist. I’m not. I’ve never been,” she said during the Thursday, May 1 episode. “I love a man to take care of me.”
She began explaining that she was “born and raised” in such a way before cutting herself off to get to her main point: “But gosh would y’all be lost without us. Because y’all would try to fight a damn silverback gorilla.”
Vanderpump Rules alum Stassi Schroeder is obsessed with the so-called “WAG renaissance” — and told that to Kelly Stafford, who is the wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford. “Can we just take a moment for the WAG renaissance? The WAG revival that’s going on because of Taylor Swift?” Schroeder, 35, said during the […]
A silverback is an adult male gorilla, which can weigh anywhere from 300 to 500 pounds and stand nearly six feet tall. They possess superior upper body strength to humans and have stronger, sharper teeth, used entirely for defense as gorillas are vegetarian.
Kelly, who is married to Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, used the popular debate to underscore that, as “brilliant” as some men are, they could not survive without women.
“I love men. I really do. And I do think that there are some very, very brilliant ones,” she said. “They invent a lot of things that we use today. But if there were no women, they would destroy whatever they invented the next f***ing day.”
While many NFL stars dominate on the football field, it’s their wives, fiancées and girlfriends who often run the show at home. Fans have since referred to this elite group of women as “WAGs,” a shorthand for “wives and girlfriends” that grew in popularity thanks to E!’s three-season WAGS docuseries in 2015. Netflix went on […]
She continued, breaking the news of the viral question to Winchester.
“Do you not see this damn debate going around right now that 100 people could kill a silverback gorilla unarmed?” she asked “Unarmed. 100 unarmed people. I’ll tell you one thing: do you know who’s not thinking about this? A woman.”
She theorized that against a gorilla, men would be their own worst enemy.
“Who do you think is more selfish in general, men or women? Men. Who’s going to be the first one to charge that gorilla? None of you,” she said.
“Women aren’t even thinking about this, discussing it,” she concluded. “They’re looking at this going what f***ing dumbass guy thought about this?”
For what it’s worth, Yahoo News asked Tara Stoinski, president, CEO and chief scientific officer for the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund, for her take. She sided with the humans, but conceded they would need to “coordinate their behavior.”
“[The gorilla would] probably take out a number of humans in the fight; they wouldn’t go unscathed,” she explained. “I think that the numbers just work in the human’s favor.”
