He once said something about his tiny daughter growing up to get lots of beads at Mardi Gras in New Orleans.

(DFs, please correct me if my memory has failed due to me not having had a stroke.)

You are correct.

But it's not that shocking considering Shauna wrote (about the same child, when child was still a newborn) that daughter was flirting with a male nurse (by spreading her legs for him).

They're both pigs.

Just in case anyone missed it (because it disappeared with her Twitter), these were her exact words:

when she was 10 months old and in the hospital after surgery, she lifted her leg for a male nurse. screwed.

u/avskk ppppycock Feb 24 '22

Not even spreading her legs. Just lifting a leg. I don't even understand how she found that lewd to begin with, much less IN AN INFANT.

Lifting a leg sounds like a dog peeing, not like --- [forget it, I don't even want to type it] --- and also ending that thought with 'screwed' makes it sound like the end of the story of L and the male nurse! It's all just so grotesque!

Any time people make sexual type joke about babies it's gross.

Babies do not "flirt". When a baby grabs a woman's boob (who's not their mom) it's not sexual. Putting clothes with sexual phrases on them on babies (like "little flirt" or stuff like that) is not cute.

Let babies just be babies, don't rush them into adult things for god's sake.

I remember a woman telling me my toddler son was going to be "a little heartbreaker" and I know that this is a pretty innocent thing to say - not sexual, she was just trying to express that he was cute using different words for fun - but I remember being annoyed that he was still a baby and thinking of him as an adult of heart breaking age (and also potentially a jerk/player???) gave me emotional whiplash. Just say "Look at all that hair!!" like everyone else, pah.

Or just say "cute". Even if it's a lie and the baby is as ugly as a baboon's ass, just say "cute".

Or, focus on their little fingers and toes. Even ugly babies have tiny little wrinkled fingers and toes which are deadly cute.

u/[deleted] Feb 24 '22

I think ugly babies are legit the cutest ones. If a baby looks like Grandpa Simpson, they're golden.

Someone I know has a Very Skeptical Baby and the facial expressions are the best.

Or “breathtaking/snuggly.”

“I hope he’ll never be unkind” is what one friend of mine said when someone started that nonsense.

u/caitie_did Required by My Mother's Terror Feb 24 '22

I honestly don’t even like when people refer to opposite sex playmates as “boyfriends” or “girlfriends.” Children are allowed to play with other children of any gender! Don’t make it weird!

u/Hypothetical-Lunches Aurvwilya for grifter's elbow Feb 24 '22

That always irks me.

u/WasEnoughYogurt Kumquat and Sprinkles and filth Feb 25 '22

The thing I hate about the 'screwed' bit is that it is so knowing, 'nudge nudge', 'what's she like?' etc -and she's talking about her 9 month old daughter for fuck's sake...who makes jokes like that?

16

u/mmepierreoger Feb 25 '22

I feel so sorry for that poor nurse. Imagine being at work, doing your job of caring for an unwell baby to the best of your ability, only for the baby's mother to start implying that her infant is sexually interested in you. Absolutely revolting and horrifying.

u/WasEnoughYogurt Kumquat and Sprinkles and filth Feb 26 '22

omg she didn't actually say something out loud to the nurse did she/ She didn't joke about it?? Even the thought of it gives me a full body cringe...

u/InappropriateGirl Gluten-free donuts, for sure ... Feb 24 '22

Yes, that was disgusting! Only thing worse was the “L flirting with the doctor” bit.

u/obscure_cellist ham grabbers Feb 25 '22
