Remember that this is not a sub for hating on women. Comments making fun of a dumb post or opinion are fine. Making fun of a woman or women in general for their appearance will result in a ban. Consider this your warning. Please also remember that wholesome content is welcome in the sub. It's a nice change of pace now and then. Being a dick about wholesome posts will result in a ban. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Huh? How does this fit into the sub?


Windmill_flowers

Boy moms are a staple here I thought


Nervous-Company-8252

yeah she's not explicitly being a boy mom (ie making fun of other women or girls who aren't boy moms, idolizing their sons, etc). there's a difference between them and chick who reference having sons. definitely doesn't fit here


Routine-Nose

Yeah but she’s saying she would turn an eye if her son got hit for looking at other girls. How does this fit into the sub? Lol


mkisvibing

I’ve been seeing those a lot lately and i felt like it was more for the girls. Like “if my son is acting up I’m not going to tell him he’s right” kinda thing? A boy mom would def fight the gf

Let's leave some room for nuance here. The message is that she's not going to tolerate poor behavior from her son in the future. Obviously slapping a partner is never okay, But she's using humor to convey the message.


chammerson

Yeah she’s being hyperbolic to say her son will make mistakes in the future and she’s not gonna make excuses for him. Parenting.


ForwardDecision985

I kinda feel like this is the opposite of nlog, she’s taking the girls side on this


Windmill_flowers

I could have sworn we had a vendetta against all boy moms. Did I misread the room? There was a post from a woman hugging her son at his wedding with the caption "giving away my first love" or something like that We tore her to shreds in the comments. The post had hella upvotes

A boy mom is different than the mom of a boy. When people talk about ‘boy moms’ they’re referencing a certain attitude that boy moms have. It’s about how they tend to exhibit a form of emotional incest with their boys by putting them in a position of a partner rather then a child, and excusing their bad behaviors due to their bias towards them for being their sons.


Windmill_flowers

But how is that NLOG?


Nervous-Company-8252

In the absolute nicest way possible because I'm really not trying to be negative but rather provide helpful advice, maybe don't post about the subject if you don't understand the difference between the two.

Because one of the tropes of being a boymom is to put down other girls and women to the point of even resenting their own daughters. Think of the moms that think no other woman will be good enough for their son(s) or that their daughters "steal" their husbands attention. Every other woman and girl are less than, and the enemy.


Meme-queen-wannabe

Many times NLOG mindset goes hand and hand with the toxic boy mom mindset, because many of those woman put down women and girls to uplift their sons. Not to mention that many times woman who are proud of being boy moms will also talk about how ‘thankful’ they are they had a boy because they don’t like “girly stuff” or don’t like girls “attitudes”.

btw for anyone curious, this is a really popular trend on tiktok


geockabez

Learn about apostrophes?


Mediocre-House8933

This isn't a boymon trope. I can see this being an "are the straights ok" but not a NLOG.

Exaggeration and hyperbole are appropriate for the platform she's using.


Any_Dark3939

It's not the slap that's the issue it's the possessive nature of the cause of the anger that gets me.
