Ashley 00:00:02Welcome to DM a dentist, your friendly neighborhood podcast, where Doctor Rusty and Doctor Mike are here to make dental care approachable for everyone because everyone deserves a healthy smile without the fear.

Dr. Mike 00:00:24Well, well, welcome back.

Dr. Rusty 00:00:26Welcome to another episode of DM a dentist.

Dr. Mike 00:00:28I'm Mike. I'm Rusty, and we're here to chit chat about teeth.

Dr. Rusty 00:00:32We are sorta, sorta. Today is definitely about teeth. It's always about teeth. But on today's segment of what? The filling.

Dr. Mike 00:00:43Oh, we almost slipped up there.

Dr. Rusty 00:00:44I really wanted to say the other one today because today's is, you know, a little weird.

Dr. Mike 00:00:50Yeah, we had a. To say the least, there was a recent commencement speech that we had.

Dr. Rusty 00:00:55Yeah. So I'm sure if you've seen it, if you've watched social media at all, this guy's been getting ripped apart. Harrison. But Kerr, he's the Kansas City chiefs kicker, if you don't know. Regardless, who cares what he does, really? But he gave a commencement speech at, like, a catholic school. Right. And, you know, he's basically getting ripped apart on social media, I think, for good reason, based upon what he said.

Dr. Mike 00:01:21Yeah, let's read in that.

Dr. Rusty 00:01:23Yeah. Just for any of you who haven't heard, Mike, please, please read. Please read what he said.

Dr. Mike 00:01:27This is a direct quote, I think it is. You, the women who have had the most diabolical lies told to you. How many of you are sitting here now about to cross this stage and thinking about all the promotions and titles you're going to get in your career? Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world, but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world. Now, for context, this was said at a commencement speech.

Dr. Rusty 00:01:58A commencement speech.

Dr. Mike 00:01:59So women and men are graduating because they chose to pursue education in a career. So it's just. It's odd content.

Dr. Rusty 00:02:09I hate it.

Dr. Mike 00:02:09I hate it.

Dr. Rusty 00:02:10The most diabolical lie at their graduation is that they can get promotions and titles in their career. I mean, that's what they've just spent years working for.

Dr. Mike 00:02:18Right? And we're saying that basically being a mother and having children, basically we're going back to gender roles, is what it feels like, whether he meant it or not. That's just not it. That's not.

Dr. Rusty 00:02:28It seems like you meant it. But anyways, as we said, it's not directly tooth related, but we felt it really important to talk about and highlight. Women in dentistry are becoming more and more common, thankfully. But dentistry has been predominantly a male dominated field for majority of history. Right, Mike?

Dr. Mike 00:02:46Yeah, it has. I mean, even so, looking at this, this lady named Lucy Hobbs Taylor was the first woman to get a dental degree in the US in what year, Rusty?

Dr. Rusty 00:02:571866.

Dr. Mike 00:02:59So, like, it feels like a long time ago, but it's not if you think about generations. 1866. Like, my grandmother, great grandmother, were born in the early nineties. Like, we're not that far removed.

Dr. Rusty 00:03:09Right, right.

Dr. Mike 00:03:10So, yeah. And then there's a couple more we want to highlight.

Dr. Rusty 00:03:12Yeah. Sarah Kraut was the first us navy dentist.

Dr. Mike 00:03:16What year was that?

Dr. Rusty 00:03:171944.

Dr. Mike 00:03:19So that is relatively recent. I mean, some of our parents were born.

Dr. Rusty 00:03:22Yeah, World War two.

Dr. Mike 00:03:24Yeah, that's not...
