Know of at least four husbands/boyfriends to either:
1.) Tell the expectant mother to “hurry up”
2.) Complain he’s the one suffering because he’s been sitting in a chair for hours
3.) Blame the doctor/mother because baby wasn’t sex he had wanted
4.) Get mad they couldn’t smoke a celebratory cigar whilst holding the newborn and/or in the hospital <—- Boomer thing, apparently
So yeah, I do not envy anyone in the OB/GYN field
SOURCE: Worked at a hospital for a few months in what was essentially sanitation. Someone leaked it or spilled it, we cleaned it.
Believe and trust I heard plenty but thankfully never saw anything
31 u/ratbum Apr 24 '26 Wow. I bet they complain when people say "men are trash" too 51 u/jimmyrigjosher Apr 24 '26 I don’t appreciate when people say that, but that’s because I don’t exhibit trash behavior like that. It’s ok to be upset when you’re inappropriately lumped in with shitty people solely based on your genetics. -1 u/catfish7xoxo Apr 24 '26 If you don’t exhibit trash behavior, then why do you feel attacked when women complain about mens trash behaviour? I don’t get angry when black people say negative stuff about white people, because I recognize I don’t act like that, and if I do, I fix it 20 u/LimpAd1859 Apr 24 '26 Do you apply the same standard when men say negative stuff about women, or when white people say negative stuff about black people?
