Mothers. For raising up kids.

[–] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Too broad. I've seen my share of really bad mothers.

[–] max641@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

'really bad' can be applied to fathers also.

[–] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Well sure and to all other humans, too. You specifically mentioned mothers though.

[–] max641@lemmy.world -3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

How can you compare a Father( other humans ) to a Mother?

Nature prepares a lady very earlier than a man. Menstruation , Pregnancy, Giving birth, Caring a kid from Day one to years (at least couple of years ) .

Think of all that sufferings, at least.

You argue like a toddler. Or I'm too dense to sense the trolling - in that case: well done.

You have a male centric ponlint of view and cannot accept the facts.

Do one thing, ask a male if they can through menustration for the rest of their life. If you are a male, ask yourself

I cannot accept facts? You're the one making claims and moving the goalpost with every reply. Now we've come from the "heroic" deed to raise a kid over giving birth to just having a menstrual cycle.

Do you know what a hero is? You can hardly define something as heroic that 50% of the world's population are just born into. Women are not heroes just for being women.

We have different POVs and idea, better agree to disagree.

I'm surprised to see this has been downvoted. I know not all mothers are perfect but just keeping a baby alive and healthy is pretty heroic IMO.

[–] max641@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Humans identify power/mighty ( even angry ) people as Heroic. Those ones with empathy, love are considered as cowards.
