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

Wow. I bet they complain when people say "men are trash" too

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.

Nah. I'm not shitty but I know on the whole men are shit. Doesn't bother me one bit when a woman says it. I'll say it with em. Men are shit.

Same way if someone says "people are awful." Pretty much inclined to agree with em, despite also being a person.
