When I first found myself single again, I guessed that it would be difficult to find friends while I have two kidlings in tow.

I have found that nearly the opposite is true.


What is it about the maternal instinct that makes it sexy?

I know I have spoken with one or two posters about this issue, now I am just throwing it out there for discussion.

I don't have any Maternal Instinct.

Kids are fun people though, and I'd never ignore a woman just because she had kids with her.
 
Not to rain on any parades but.....

A lot of guys know that single-moms are nervy about whether anyone will be interested in them and so see them as easy or at least vulnerable targets.

I have found that the opposite of THIS is true for me. There's just something about having two young ones that seems to scare people (men :rolleyes: ) away. I have yet to figure out why :confused:
 
scares some, intrigues others. my second wife had three boys when we married. there are plenty of guys out there that won't run, they're just a little harder to find i suppose.

Yes, I realize that.

But there are men who simply get all warm and cozy over kid stories or listening to me on the phone with lil ones in the background.

Yes...some think single moms are desperate and yes, some are pedophiles.

But, my discriminating eye has found some just really like women in "mommy" mode.

Heh,my fella has taken me and three kids.

Bravery is what it is. ;)

Ya, I joke frequently about how my kidlings will scare anyone away!


Seriously though, I think that anyone who decides to settle down with me will find that their adjustment to life with small children will be the biggest challenge.

In that event, my word of thumb is "Proceed with caution!"

:D
 
Hell yes!

Uncle J, it IS VERY hard to find a man who will marry a woman with children. It means having to share her! Some men just can't stand that. Then again, some men who have had their children will tell a woman with her own kids that he doesn't wanna play daddy with hers, cuz he has his own. Like, what woman is going to ASK a man to "play daddy"?

Damned if I know what it is. But being a mum, nad a succesful and independent one at that, is just one of the sexy attributes of my licky.
 
Some men don't mind ready-made families. I myself have nary a maternal bone in my body. I am an aunt and that's fine with me. I can play, give presents, and send home. ;)

Call me selfish, I don't mind. I enjoy traveling which is hard enough with a bird, let alone children.
 
Oh man, it is much deeper than all of this. First of all, there is something very sexy about motherhood because motherhood is the essence of a woman. Certainly a childless woman is still a woman. But women who have children have crossed a line over into immortality and goddessness. They have borne fruit, they are full of life, and have given life themselves. They are vessels of love, bearers of the mystery of the whole fucking universe. They are proven masters of evolution, they are creators of life.

Fuck this "easy target" bullshit.

Mothers with children are sexy as can be because they are in touch with the universal current we all live on. They are the juice in the batteries of life. Man, if you can't feel it, you can't feel the flow of life, the universal cosmic river (which btw, you are about to drown in.)

i believe you can tell a lot about a woman by the way she handles her little ones. if she shows that huggable, loveable, caring mom thing with them, chances are, you will have found a person who is loving and caring and takes responsibility and maturity seriously.
find one who yells, screams, and swears at the kids.........well, you get the idea. different as day and night.
you can't be over-protective either, as that may be scary.

and besides, it gives us guys a chance to come over and see if mom is approachable for a talk or not. kiddy stories are a great ice breaker.
Hugs!!
 
One of my big concerns with my possibly impending singleness is that I have kids. I don't want to be alone, but I've always assumed that taking on someone else's kids would be something most men wouldn't want to deal with... and dates being cancelled because of sitters not showing up, etc.

But then, I think about my wonderful step father, who at 29, married my mom and all 4 of us little girls. Took a brave, caring man to do that. That, more than anything, tells me how much he loves her.
