It's not a younger generation thing. To be honest, nobody is forcing dudes to date single mothers but it's like they feel slighted if a single mom has standards or wants better for herself and her child. She's pretty much tainted but you don't hear the same rhetoric about baby fathers. Like you said, it's a package deal.
:ehh:.. true. So very true. I guess I said it's a younger generation thing because they are the only ones that I've heard be vocal about not wanting to date single mothers. They are just good enough for a hit it and quit it.

I wonder why men feel that single mothers are not worthy of a good mate? :jbhmm:

Shouldn't her child come before you? You (a grown man) need to be put before a child? If you have a daughter, doesn't your daughter come first before any woman?
There's absolutely nothing wrong with having your child come first before anyone you date. Your child should ALWAYS come first. With that being said, a lot of dudes don't want to deal with that. They want to be the top priority. That's why most dudes especially us younger ones shy away from single mothers besides smashing them. And even that can be a headache. Shorty cancelling plans because she can't find a baby sitter, or can't get in them guts because her kid won't leave her sight for not even a second :dead::martin:

I don't know, it's strange. I think it shouldn't matter if you don't wanna date them right?

Nothing about the dating game is fair. Being a single mother does not make you a bad woman but not the best dating option for a man that does not have kids.
This.

When you're single... You're single. For whatever reason, people will judge you. Thicken your skin and push on or be eaten alive.

And if I was a single parent... Dating would be the least of my priorities up to a certain age of my child. Imo.

My mom got divorced when I was 10 and didn't start seeing a dude (to my naked eye) until I was 16. She felt I was old enough to understand.

Hated that muthafukka.

It's because they're upset they weren't chosen by a specific woman. So when she becomes a single mother, it's a brief feel good moment for them ( see what happens when you don't choose me). Now If that single mother gets a good mate, it shatters their illusion that the single mother should suffer.

Just my two cents.

All this drip on me
The general consensus on the coli isn't actually reality...in real life bad milfs get wifed up everyday b.


As they should, since there's enough people out there for everyone to eat. :salute: I don't have kids but ostracizing a single person (male or female) that does, seems dumb especially if you're not even going to be the one involved with them at any point.

I disagree with this. These men are coming from a standpoint that the woman didn't look twice at them when she was "in her prime", banging body before a baby, no children, emotional baggage from past traumatic relationships etc.. but now when she's sick and flabby from pregnancy or letting herself go, has children etc she's now checking for you.

And a similar example I can use is a woman who used to be sexually promiscuous and loose becomes a born again virgin and won't' have sex with a man until he marries her. Many men may feel slighted or cheated by this. "You gave it up to a bunch of other men basically for free, but now you want me or another man to marry you?". I understand where these women are coming from and I agree that they should be more wise in the future about who they open their legs to, but I also see it from the standpoint of the man.

Me personally, the cons of dating a single mother versus a woman with no children outweighs the pros. First of all I'm only 21 and I don't have the means nor do I want to take care and currently be responsible for someone else's life. Now to get to the potential cons. The child comes before me, and I fully understand why that is the case and in no way fault the mother for it. So it's easier for me to just not date single mothers. If I want to spend time with the mother alone, she'd have to find a baby sitter, see if she can fit it within her schedule, etc. There probably can't be much spontaneity.

The father of the child is always going to be around, if he is. They may be having sex behind my back. The father and I may have two different parenting styles. He may be imparting different values onto his child than those I agree with. Same thing with the mother. They may have their children dressed in clothing I don't feel appropriate, feel that perming or chemically altering their daughter's hair is okay. Feed their children unhealthy food, let them watch cartoons, listen to music etc that affects them in negative ways.

And if the relationship does not work out, my relationship with the child most likely also ends. And I am not the child's father. I hear from people all the time that they are grateful for their step parents, but they don't view them as their real REAL parents.

These mfers on the coli aren't even getting p*ssy. I just let them cook. I've seen some bad single moms out there and I wouldn't have a problem with it but I also have a kid. They act like every single mom is some emotional wreck stuck to their BD or doesn't have their shyt together which is not the case

Nobody is forcing you so who cares if you're not even checking for her. All these scenarios are dumb when you're adult. People go through shyt, you live and you learn. I'm not understanding the rhetoric if you have the upper hand in not even wanting to fukk with them.
