       Worker ants have three grandparents, not four. This is because male ants have a mother... but no father. They are haploid clones of their mom.

       Ant "boy mom" instagram must be SO TOXIC. Can you imagine?Alternately, maybe this whole "boy mom" thing is some haploidipoly nonsense. Yes. Those weird "instagram moms" are wasps. Explains everything.

       I feel like I should explain what an "instagram boy mom" is... but it's one of those disappointing trends that I was sad to learn about so... IDK if you don't know what it is yet that could be a good thing for you. It's like the whole "trad wife" trend in some ways.

       @fritzoids Ha ha ha I'm a boy mom that's why I DON'T teach my sons to clean up after themselves, feed themselves or to be polite. Ha ha.Oh no I'm so exhausted. Look at how my house is trashed. This is kinda stressful. But only boys moms will understand!  It can't be the consequence of my own actions, it's just how boys are I guess.

       @futurebird @fritzoids The other part that bothers me is that there are a lot of things that all children do that get coded as gendered so they get suppressed in some kids and encouraged in others when they really should be encouraged for all.Playing with dolls and climbing things, for instance.

       @gbargoud @fritzoids Kids will go to extraordinary lengths to try to meet your expectations. So, its worth thinking about if what you expect will serve them well in life, if it will stress them out, if it will be good for them. I expect EVERYONE to clean up after themselves if they are able to do so. I've known many adult men who couldn't cook for themselves, or adult women who couldn't ... use tools. It's really limiting and bad. Why do this to people?
