[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't mind changing my name because it was so common. Kind of similar, but I am not a jewelry person at all. Pre-kids, I only wore my wedding rings for special occasions. Since having my DC, I make it a point to wear my rings whenever I'm out for the same reason you mentioned OP - I don't want my family stereotyped. [/quote] Some of my friends wore fake wedding bands when they were pregnant and their fingers were too swollen to wear their own, just so they could avoid the judgmental unwed mother looks. I get it.[/quote] This. My SIL recommended this to me. She told me to wear a fake wedding ring while pregnant to avoid the unwed baby mama stereotype. Crazy, but the stereotype against AA women is real. So sad. [/quote]
