The profile nicknames of men and women

Have you noticed that many women have "momof3", "emmasmom", "soon2bmommy", etc.? I rarely, if ever, have seen men's nickname referring to their roles as fathers. Why do you think this is?

 

it is a cultural weakness of traditionaly denying women their own identity.
and of the traditional compulsions of them to go along with it.

Not too many do that here. I've seen a lot of that on parenting boards, men and women, but that's the point there...

Tons of people here have kids but don't advertise it.

 

I have 24 illegitimate children, but my nickname has nothing to do with it.

I used to have 27 but I ate 3.

 

At least you kept your diet low carb.

 

Well...maybe we can hold off on the next Baby Eaters' meeting...population control is rarely a bad thing. :H

 

unless the government is in charge of it.

 

I haven't ever really noticed that... but it is probably because men aren't exactly trained to advertise whether or not they have children and all of that. I don't know, doesn't really bother me.

Speaking of fathers though, yesterday I saw this guy who was skateboarding... while he was pushing a baby in a stroller. Talk about irresponsible parenting...

 

I want... babies!

 

this isn't about edible babies.

 

Yaaar, once again the Baby Eaters hijack a thread! *waves stick in the air, does a piratey dance, then runs away*

 

My profile nickname refers to me being a father.

 

I just thought it meant you were dirty and had a speech impediment.

 

Nope, Father of Young Lively, ummmm, what's a word for kids that starts with F?

 

I'd have to agree with the manx on this one.

Aren't you just denying your own identity by doing that?

 

fries? or, in honor of the frenchiness going on here today, fils?

 

We'll go with "Family"

 

as you wish...though "fluffernutters" would be a fun one.

 

isn't that what the girl does right before the guy goes in front of the camera
