Hey ladies,
Here's the article I just read:
This is why we need FDS.
- He says he owes everything to his mother's encouragement and care. "I like having her around, motivating me, consoling me."
- "It's OK to be a mama's boy. There's nothing wrong with it"
What a generation of losers. They're claiming it's the same as a "daddy's girl" which I disagree with completely.
Thoughts?
I don’t date mama’s boys cuz their relationship with their mom is always emotionally incestuous and it’s disgusting, same with daddy’s girls. Men who have normal, healthy relationships with their moms don’t claim the title mama’s boys. Just like women who have normal, healthy relationships with their dads don’t call themselves daddy’s girls.
I haven't thought much about this topic, but I'm interested, so I have some questions. Why was being a mama's boy negative to begin with? Was it because of what we at FDS would associate it with (likeliness of being a manchild), or was it because of misogyny? (being non-romantically close to a woman is seen as weak, so being close to your mother would be seen as a bad thing) I have a feeling that the cultural phenomenon is a result of the latter rather than the former. In turn, why do you see being a daddy's girl as a positive? And why do others see it as negative?
