If you felt your blood boil listening to Harrison Butker‘s disgusting commencement speech at Benedictine College this week, just imagine how much it must have hurt to hear in person?
A Benedictine student named Susannah Leisegang took to TikTok to speak out about her experience hearing those bigoted, sexist remarks in person. Reminding listeners this was a “Catholic, conservative” school, she sadly revealed:
“There was a standing ovation from everyone in the room except from me, my roommate and about 10-15 other women.”
In particular the reaction from the male students was as upsetting as the words being spoken:
“A lot of the men were like, ‘f**k yeah.’ They were excited, but it was horrible. Most of the women were looking back and forth like what the f**k is going on?”
Ugh, can you imagine??

She did say even in a place like that some women audibly protested:
“Some of us did boo. Me and my roommate definitely did.”
Susannah told viewers she got her degree in graphic design and was planning to work for a magazine company. Being just 21 she wasn’t interested in popping out children yet:
“I’m excited for what my career brings me and, no, I’m not a f**king homemaker.”
Staring off, though, after being told her real accomplishment would be her marriage and children, that her career aspirations were part of some great big lie? She lamented:
“It definitely made graduation feel a little less special.”
Aw. How upsetting! See the full video (below):
