I found this shirt hanging among the Mother's Day apparel at Wal-Mart.(It says, in case you can't see it, "Moms do the hardwork/Dads do the yardwork"). I know, I know. It's supposed to be cute and funny. But it casually perpetuates so many stereotypes: fathers are incompetent, mothers have it so hard, women belong in the house, and so on and so on.
Mother's Day does not have to equal Anti-Father's Day.
