5 Comics That Reveal How Differently Dads And Moms Are Viewed In Public

Agreed. Criticized for breastfeeding, Criticized for formula feeding. Take your eyes off of them for 5 minutes when you've had them non stop for 24 hours a day 7 days a week for 6 months and you're a piece of s**t. Wean your kid off the boob at 6 months? Oh you're being selfish. Wait until they self wean and it continues after they are 2? So you're planning on breastfeeding until they are in college. It's a catch 22 no matter what.

Sir, that's not the point of the whole post. This wants to highlight how only women are still seen as birthgivers and caretakers of their children, unloading men of all responsibilities.

You can say the word bitches. They are. And they criticize women bitching about other women. It's an eternal circle.

Not as much as men who are brutal to women.

And also as a man how the hell would you know anything about stuff between women. The fact that people have given you thumbs up is sick.

Oh shut the hell up. That is not true at all. That's just some f****d up misogynist stereotype that people like to spew around for some reason. It doesn't f*****g matter that these characters are both women. The point is that moms are treated more like c**p than dads are. And IF women are ever "brutal" to other women it's only because in this society we have all be brainwashed to hate other women. We are unfortunately seen as the "inferior" sex after all. Fortunately most people know better.

Fathers don't usually get the role they deserve in custody cases based on existing statistics, which in fact often seems like circular logic. The point being that many marriages fail and with the father very often being taken out of the equation in that case there is no way for the male sex to prove themselves as able caretakers. I know of many cases where by family court decision fathers only get to see their children around 3-5 % of the time, while the remainder is spent with mothers. It is virtually impossible to have any meaningful impact on the child's upbringing in such a limited time-frame, hence impossible to prove the ability to be an active parental figure.

This phenomena is also damaging to mothers as persons in their own right because by putting them primarily on a pedestal of holy motherhood you create pressure on each one of them personally and enforce the traditional sexist role of females, in which they are basically only good for house care and taking care of kids while advancing in career is an option only expected if their life situation allow. Since I get a lot of question on how I became a single father to two girls I turned my answer around: “You don’t have to be a mother to be a bad parent.” While often viewed as a provocative statement that doesn’t get me many friendly looks I hope it makes the interviewer (in all but the occasional case a woman) think about gender equality and why enforcing any stereotype is never a good thing.

Me too, and I’m not even a parent. Nor do I ever want to be, which is totally acceptable!

Again no, women are criticized for everything they do. This is insulting to WOMEN.

Oh, that sucks. Sorry to hear that.

really? I knew there was a reason I didnt get my hair done professionally. I thought it was just cause theyre all snooty judgmental jerks about your hair/look didnt realize it extended to your parenting too LOL I'd ask her right back when she plans on going back to school to do something serious with her life.

Seriously? I thought these had to be exaggerated :/

ahahaha ily

BEST RESPONSE EVER! Be the best you can be for HER! SHE IS ALL THAT MATTERS. I'm so glad someone else knows that. I wish my dad did. But in recent years he's made up for it. :) Daughters carry how their daddies treat them their entire lives.

My partner wants to be a great Dad. In circumstances like the doctor's where they speak directly to me and only to me about our son I make sure I'm looking at him to make sure he's involved. He just feels like a stick in the corner.

The issue is that men aren't expected to have to take care of the kids, it's not their job. Yes, things have changed some, but evidently, not enough. So when a man is out in public with his kids, it's like, "Isn't he a great guy, helping his wife out (at *her* job), what a good dad." But women are expected to be perfect at child raising, so they're always under scrutiny by people who have nothing better to do than make judgements about strangers.

I was thinking the same thing. I usually start with "how are you doing", and then, I move on according the direction towards which the conversation is developing.

Shows you care
