I Hate Mothers - Comments Page 3

I hate mothers. Bright and shiny, fresh from the birthing chambers, endorphin charged, plastic smiles, tits still full mothers.

Author's Note: People fucking HATE this essay. I don't really know why; it's just satire. I'm not actually calling for the systematic execution of all mothers. I'm not looking to start a revolution. I'm not asking snipers to start picking them off as they line up to Pilates classes with little tots in tow. Still people think I'm the devil for having written it. I guess something or other about the sanctity of Motherhood, and the price of raising our future leaders and the toll of the strain on women's bodies and BLAH BLAH BLAH, I dunno I wasn't listening. Ah well, enjoy. And Happy Mother's Day, Mom. I love you.…

    this post has honestly made my day better. i am really confused by the people saying it goes too far. i kind of thought that wasn't possible with satire, but people are often offended when they see their own flaws pointed out

    I love this and I am a mother...I can't stand other mothers and decided to Google "I hate other mothers" and found this site... they really are inconsiderate A*******
    I really try hard not to be one and will remove the kiddies if they start up (which of course they will from time to time). What I can't stand is the fact that women (at least most) lose common courtesy after having children. I am holding the door open for another mom (leaving my son's preschool)...I have both kids by the wrists,carrying schoolbags, etc. etc. and this mother behind me just stands in the door...literally is standing in the door talking to the other morons behind her, not bothering to grab the door from me so I can get the hell home and away from there... I just let it go. They do this all the time. Not to mention how many times I try to be nice and hold a door open so a mom can pass through with her stroller...no "thank you" ...they forget their manners and are raising their little ones not to learn theirs. Maybe I feel "above" them because I was 38 before I had my first and suffered through horrible meals and plane rides and vowed not to do it to other people.

    Sandgirl, you sound awesome. I know parents like you are probably the vast majority, but I hope it stays that way. I'm scared of having kids and turning into a bratty mother and/or making their lives hell unintentionally. No kids for me until I get plenty of counselling!

    i loved this! laughing outlud for most of this, it is soo true, how new mothers know everything and how inconsiderate they are to the rest of the human race. the last two times i seen a movie (past 9:00 pm) there was babies crying all the way through, i will not tolerate it anymore.

    swingpuss - absolutely not acceptable, you and mommies like you don't make your situation any better by being defensive bitches. the author did state at the beginning it was satire. aside from that, well i think our world is way to child loving for my taste.

    I agree with the blogger and I am so glad to see I am not alone!
    A woman was congratulated on her pregnacy (standard etiquette) on who wants to be a millionaire, then the host proceeded to say "well done everyone give her a round of applause", seriously!? For what?? Having sex and managing to get knocked up?
