NYT Left Baffled by the Radical Concept of a Married, Pregnant Working Mom Who Wants to Be Called Mrs.

The New York Times did an article on alternate fertility methods. They did an interview with a woman who specializes in that field. She happens to be a conservative who has children herself, is pregnant with another child and is happily married. She works very hard and apparently doesn't have lots of free time. It sounds like many working moms across America. Apparently, this has the NYT baffled.

Oh, and she asked the publication to make her title 'Mrs.'. That really threw them for a loop.

Why did she also seem confused by a married woman wanting to be a Mrs? It’s just accurate.

It's very strange.

You may think you can parody The New York Times, but you can’t.

Not possible. https://t.co/FPoFkj1a3u

When truth is stranger than fiction.

Is there a group of people more out of touch than the writers at The New York Times? https://t.co/lGROeUKh2R

Women working hard at a career and enjoying motherhood is very foreign to them.

Hi, @nytimes —

This is what life is like for working mothers. Perhaps Anemona Hartocollis should spend some time getting to know those of us who live outside of the Big Apple. https://t.co/lGROeUKh2R

Maybe talk to women outside the bubble.

The idea that there are only two options - girlboss or tradwife - is nuts. MOST women I know, whatever their politics, are in the middle of that spectrum.

We juggle. We pump with one boob out while driving to a meeting; we read bedtime stories over FaceTime. This is NORMAL. https://t.co/LwXwl9TYxX

That's the life of the modern American woman.

Newsflash: American women trying to balance working hard and rearing children are busy.

Get a look at this lunatic Hartocollis. Ugh.

Honestly… most intelligent & hard working people wouldn’t make talking to a NYT reporter much of a priority in their lives.

They know the game & how the “journalist” will frame a story.

Lots of “scare quotes”, subtle negative jabs & stereotypes.

Kudos to Waters. pic.twitter.com/P8pGazFtjH

Waters truly believes in what she is preaching and that's a good thing. Too bad the NYT will never respect conservative women.

Since the NYT “journo” probably refuses to define “woman,” this is not surprising.

Fair point. They're probably really confused right now.

“Mrs” is the correct term, as she is a wife

For an ideology obsessed with labels and pronouns being respected it is odd the writer appears to have a problem with this

It is also something to be proud of, one has to become a “Mrs”

Correct titles apparently only matter when it's a man demanding you pretend he's a woman.
