I'm looking for some opinions today.
You know how women are always joking about how things would be different if men experienced them?
Well my husband found a Mother's Day card that loosely reflected that sentiment. He thought it was hilarious. I'm wondering if it's really meant as a compliment or a thinly-veiled dig.
The caption inside says - It's not easy being a mother. If it were, fathers would do it.
So what do you think?
Did the designer intend it as a compliment or not?

I think the dig in the statement is on Dad...meaning the job is way too difficult for a man, only a woman could handle it. Not sure what the picture implies.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a happy Mother's Day.
Thanks, Linda!
DeleteI thought that except that the picture makes it look like mom does nothing all day. Hmmmm. Maybe dad couldn't even handle that?
Now if she was slaving away at the computer....
I thought it was a cute dig on men. I got a chuckle out of it. My wife would have enjoyed it. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks, for commenting, David! I guess you and my husband share a similar sense of humor. This is one of those times I'd love to know the artist's intent. But I guess it's fun just to speculate.
