How Moms Feed Their F*&#ing Families (According to TV)

Posted by Madeline Holler

Nothing wrong with being the main cook in the family (even if you're a woman, a feminist, a mom). But don't you hate how TV portrays the household cook, always assuming she (1) is a she, (2) makes all the cooking and shopping decisions and acts alone and (3) gives a shit what the family eats day in an day out.

Target Women's Sarah Haskins, our favorite satirist of the media's take on all things lady-related, hates it too. Here's her latest video, this one on how food prep makes the mom.

This is so freakin' funny. My husband loved it too, because the men in these commercials are portrayed as drooling morons who can't make a meal for their kids. Sarah Haskins rules.
