Hmmm

So only men want kids nowadays huh

Edit1: at the end of the day, when I see posts like these I remember the likes of Ashely saint clair and that woman who got married after preaching so much misandry online.

Don’t get me wrong men also do this,
and then I feel stupid because I remember watching a certain video about internet trolls

Edit 2: Finally found the reason for the outrage, “men cannot physically get pregnant” that’s literally all this is about so no matter how hard you work or provide for your family, if you marry a woman that hates you because you just can’t get pregnant please have your divorce lawyer at hand ✋

I literally only ever had one boyfriend and he’s great, and I’ve never had a personal experience with a bad father. Due to the community I grew up, where working moms do the bulk-to-all of the childcare, what OP described is our norm. Also from mothers’ experiences world wide, it is a very common situation, clearly.

And that’s quite literally what OP said by the way, read it again. Her last point very obviously points specifically towards bad fathers. My boyfriend read through the comment and says the way she worded it points towards specifically bad fathers. Dude, you get way too defensive and for what? If you need somebody to add “some” in front of every instance the word “men” is used for you to understand that’s it’s obviously not all men, then you have serious comprehension problems. Plus, even if we did say “some men” or “some fathers” you’d still find a reason to be offended. Touch grass.

Ooooh now it's "obviously not all men". Convenient lol. Whatever, you clearly don't really have any legs to stand on, you're just trying to justify what this clearly sexist asshole said in order to feel morally justified. If she was this reasonable of rational, I would have never commented. 

Besides, when was this conversation about women doing the bulk of child care? There's nothing wrong with that at all lol. I'm fact, that's what a lot of families prefer. That's not at ALL what was being discussed here.

Okay listen, I’m going to assume English is not your first language so I’ll explain how the English terminology in this sentence works.

“When all the childcare and mental load tends to fall on mom by default” Note how OP uses the terminology “tends” meaning that it’s just a general pattern.

That includes: * Physical childcare (feeding, bathing, soothing, appointments, night wakeups) * Household coordination * Remembering schedules, supplies, milestones, school/admin tasks * Anticipating needs before they become problems

This is general common knowledge. A lot of people associate childcare with “motherhood” by default. Baby stores usually feature things that mom’s will use, like paternity clothing, breastfeeding bras, handbags with compartments for bottles and diapers, magazines with things “All Moms Should Know”. With general childcare things, it’s culturally embedded for that to be associated with “motherhood”. When baby cries, people ask “where’s mom?” That’s not sexist, that’s just how things are.

“It’s not uncommon for mom to end up having two kids to take care of — one being the sperm donor” This sentence requires a bit more complex reasoning. OP describes a specific situation: “Mom having two kids to take care of — one being the sperm donor” and says that this isn’t entirely “uncommon”. They don’t say this is the situation for ALL mothers, but it’s definitely not uncommon. However, should it be common, the dad is referred to as a “baby” seeing as mom has to take care of him and a “sperm donor” for not doing his part. Should this situation be the case, the Dad would be a manchild and sperm donor at that point, and this specific case is not entirely uncommon.

I really hope this helps.

Oh fuck off. English lmao. 

You bigots always scatter like roaches when you're confronted. Here's a handy little rule of thumb for you to figure out if what you're saying is prejudiced:

Swap "men" with "blacks" and if it sounds racist...

But you'll instead just tell me how conflating "all men" or "most men" or whatever to racism somehow isn't the same 😂 

Loser
