God I swear every subreddit that has to do with marriage or relationships is full of women bitching about their partners who wouldn't help PRIOR to getting pregnant and now they're all shocked Pikachu face when she has to parent them both.

Do people not realize how much work babies are or something??? They all act like it's a total surprise every time they're exhausted from running the household while Kyle sits on his ass playing video games and not changing diapers.

Ridiculous.

I had the pleasure of speaking with the most fabulous drunk lady at a concert recently. During the course of conversation, she dropped the banger of a line "I don't need kids; I have a PhD."

I just got a cricut and my older sister has a PhD, so naturally, I made a shirt for her with this phrase on it. I wish I could show the awesome lady.

I posted it on a related subreddit and someone seriously commented that it's as obnoxious as the shirts as advertising the wearer's motherhood.

I'm sorry, did motherhood require YEARS of studying to achieve? Fuck that. Her PhD is worth the bragging rights over the inability to use protection. She busted her ass for YEARS for that achievement, which is literally why she gets to add Dr. To her name. To even compare motherhood to a doctorate is an insult to education everywhere.

I realize it was literally nothing more than a Reddit comment, but I'm legitimately angry that anyone could even compare wearing a PhD shirt vs a motherhood shirt.

Not sure if this is related enough to be on this subreddit 🤷‍♀️
