An online rebuttal to Beck's talk:

From the article:
The rebuttal includes these declarations:
* Fathers as well as mothers, men as well as women, are called to nurture.
* Motherhood and sisterhood cannot be reduced to the performance of narrowly prescribed tasks, but emerge from who we know ourselves to be.
* Cleanliness depends on access to resources and has more to do with priorities than purity of heart.
* Unfortunately, women and girls still perform the bulk of the world's low-paid and unpaid labor, including housework - often at the expense of their own education, leadership, creativity, health, and well-being. We reject teachings that encourage women to shoulder ultimate responsibility for every aspect of child-rearing and family life, and to take on shame and guilt when things do not go according to plan.
* We reverence the responsibility to choose how, when, and whether we become parents.
