[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a defensive move to try and assure everyone that don't worry it's okay, they are just fine not having a daughter (because people tend to assume you want a daughter.) Agree it's off-putting and makes those of us with both genders roll our eyes hard. You will never see a mother with both sons and daughters trying to invent a ridiculous identity around this, and that tells you everything you need to know. [/quote] I never refer to myself as a #boymom but I do have three boys and it really grates on me how people always seem to assume that I wish I had at least one girl, especially moms of all girls (#girlmom?). I had zero preference, but the pitying looks get old. I can see why some embrace being a parent of all boys since we get so much shit for it.[/quote] Yup. It's totally a defensive / insecurity thing [/quote]
