Motherhood and Hotness
In my last post, I showed photos of women and asked everyone to say who was the hottest woman. This is part of the comment I received from VaneDave:
“So my vote would go to mrsprosa since she is a fellow New York hottie and she can recite Tribe Called Quest lyrics, but she is holding her baby in the pic. That detracts from her hotness.“
Now this is the photo of MrsProsa that I posted:
Now here are the other photos she sent me to pick from:
I picked the first one because I thought it gave the best full view of her face. I actually was concerned I was giving her an unfair advantage holding the child because I thought that would get her more votes.
In my opinion, a woman who has a child, cares about that child and has maternal instincts has her hotness factor go up by ten times. I think it is a turn-off when a woman acts like her children are a burden and an interruption to her life.
Do you think a child “detracts” from a woman’s hotness?

Sometimes.
If the kid is uglier, it makes the mom seem hotter.
nO WAi!!!!!
I agree with you Dan…it can actually increase attractiveness in my opinion also. Maybe it’s that level of confidence and self sacrifice that makes it so…well…attractive.
Doesn’t change for me.
GODDAMN MIDDLE-AGED MOTHERS
I don’t think it detracts from her physical appearance, but the fact that she has a child would make me less attracted to her overall. I don’t want to have to deal with a kid, you know?
I dont know but she looks TOTALLY different in the picture with her bb then she does in any of the other pictures i’ve seen of her.. she’s a milf.. I’d do her.
Don’t see why it should have any role in her hotness.
yeah because that would mean she was already taken for the most part. i would think that if i saw a guy with a child.
It’s not the matter of a hot girl acting like her children are a burden or whatnot. It’s just that mothers and hotness just don’t click. MILFs are shown without their babies, whom are wholesome and innocent. So, having a baby within a picture with the question of ‘Who’s the hottest?’ does heavily detract her from that definition of being ‘hot’, in my opinion.
She is very hot, though, in her other pictures.
@edlives - Attractiveness comes in various different forms. I think ‘hotness’ is just one of the many sub-categories. I personally don’t believe that babies can possibly add on to that sort of attractiveness. Cute, yes, charming, yes, but not hot.
I do think a child detracts from a woman’s hotness — because I don’t want to date a mother. I, personally, do not want the responsibility of a child, and so any potential girlfriends (or boyfriends, for that matter) lose points when they’ve got a kid.
LOL. I wondered why Vanedave wrote that, and mentioned it to him….But in all honesty, I do believe men (& women sometimes) view “Moms” as less appealing as women who dont have children. I actually wrote about it in a post once titled “Can Mothers be sexy?” I actually feel more “Hotttt” Than I ever have after having my babies! So there, Society!
@The_Melancholy - LMAO! he didnt ask “Which kid would you like to deal with. But I see where you are coming from…He did ask who was hottest. and kids arent hot huh?
@MomGoneMadd - Why thanks my Fellow MILF!
no not at all.
motherhood is sexyyy
I’m bias. Moms are hot! Haha.
I think the baby is a distraction but it in NO WAY takes away from her beauty. If anyone makes the argument that it does…then I could see that they were possibly more in tune to the baby. I’ve come to notice people rarely see me in a room if my kids are in the room also.
LOL at the first comment.
Nope.
Yes, I think it does. I noticed something while walking past workers with a child at my hand. When with a child it’s like you are invisible.
I guess it depends on what the person rating the hotness is hoping for… or fantasizing about.
@mrsprosa - Kids are definitely not hot to a 19 year old guy lol. But I suspect you wouldn’t really be trying to attract my attention anyway, so it doesn’t really matter!
Naw. Kids are awesome. Definitely a plus. But possibly more so if it’s a guy with a kid. Chicks dig a dude who’s good with anklebiters. As a dude who’s great with anklebiters, I hope that’s the case, anyway!
I don’t think it takes away from her looks at all. I think she is gorgeous. And a child just adds to it. It giver her an air of confidence. I think so anyways.
Well, it’s a personal thing. I really don’t like children very much… And I highly doubt that I will ever be responsible enough to have one, so I think it does sort of detract from the hotness… But, that’s just me.
mrsprosa is a sexy momma though ;D I’d do her! (If she ever were interested, lol.)
I didn’t vote for her with or without the baby.
having a kid in the picture is a total turn off. she’s hot, but baby faces incite a different feeling. it’d be like eating a rare steak while watching Saw V.
hot is hot
I think a girl could be hot with a baby, cute is definitely a factor.
If a woman is a mother and shows good maternal instincts, her attractiveness goes way up. However, mothers tend to also be married and unavailable, so when I see a woman with kids I tend to not make a move no matter how hot she is.
@TakingxOverxMe - Bahaha!
You’re awesome.
@SerenaDante - LOL. you are the greatest!
“a woman who has a child, cares about that child and has maternal instincts has her hotness factor go up by ten times.”
So you find Octo-mom 140x more attractive than the average woman? : )
I find some moms attractive. I like a competent mother. It’s kids I’m not so keen on.
nothing wrong with a mother daughter combination,,, now,,, thats hot,,,,,,
oh,,, the daughter would have to be a little older than the kid depicted in your photos,,,, no,,, im not that way,,,,,
@YourOuterCritic - Hahahahaa no way! @mejicojohn - Ew(????)
No way, a woman is hot whether she is a mother or not
In the case of this lady she has that mommy glow and seems genuinely happy so I’d argue it makes her even more attractive
It certainly doesn’t make her less attractive. I just think that a lot of guys would shy away from a woman with a child. haha
no it shouldn’t!! she’s gorgeous!
Nope.
I think it does, and for this reason.
What do women think about when they see a guy with a kid?
They probably think one of 2 things:
That guy’s a dad
That guy is good with kids.
What men think when we see a woman with a kid:
)
She’s got a kid, guess I won’t deal with that.
She’s got a kid, probably has a husband too.
(optional: Well, she’s pretty hot, I would’ve got her pregnant too
See how one is negative, and the other is positive?
Women like seeing men with kids, it shows that they care about not only the kid, but the woman as well, whereas guys see a kid as a cockblock, because essentially to a guy who’s trying to date a mom, that’s probably what the kid is.
Due to how society is, it is nothing special to see a mom with a kid. But guys usually aren’t good with kids, so seeing a guy with one, is sort of an “image enhancer” so to speak.
yeah, but only because I’m 22, I know I won’t care when I’m older.
i don’t think it does.
but in society it depends on the age, and the MATURITY FACTOR of whoever’s making the judgement.
obviously the maturity factor of whoever made that comment is very low.
i think that judging by ‘hotness’ is generally a bad idea.if we’re judging looks, we should use other words [beautiful, pretty, gorgeous, cute, adorable, etc.].calling someone ‘hot’ makes it sound like all you want them for is sex.
@figachewy - Nice simile.
some people feel as if we are less appealing because of our kids. i think i look jus as good befor my so and i will continue to look good.
@mrsprosa - ok,, ok,,, the statement may have been a little vauge,,,, have to uphold my image tho,,,,,
Negative! I dont think it does at all. If anything it could only add
Only if the child is uggo.
I think it makes a woman that much more beautiful.
well… it feels inappropriate to think of someone’s mom LIKE THAT, you know.
it’s easier to do when you’re not reminded that a woman is a mother. she might still be hot, but you can only let your mind wander so far with it… i mean… the kid is IN the picture.
the third picture is best, anyway.
Not in that picture. Both of them look cute and sweet.
I don’t think motherhood detracts from attractiveness.
@xpinaixstylesx - I think you’ve never had a crying baby up at 2am. LOL.
Not to say that I don’t love my children…. but they are what I guess I would call “beautiful interruptions”.
Children are sticky and scare me. So, yes. I would NEVER, EVER date or screw a girl/guy with a kid. Unless it was with my mate who MADE aforementioned kid with me.
Britney spears is a ma. Lol.
Absolutely not!
I think the motherhood just makes her hotter.
YES
i think it makes her way hotter! and even if the child wasnt in the pic i think it was the best choice… coming from a fellow mom of course!
I think good mums are hot. In a certain admirable way. : )
Not in the least! She’s a beautiful woman.
She’s a loving mother. It matters not if I think she is hot or not. That matter is settled between her and her husband.
The one thing that destroys my infatuation with a woman is finding out she is married, divorced, or has a child. Why waste energy deciding hot or not issues with married women? I grew up in a single-parent home, and I remember what my mom’s friends were like: not that hot. One or two of them were cute, but that was that. They also had kids. nuff said.
Hot or Not is just a fantasy. Who wants to deal with real life when rating women (or men) in this manner.
And I really do hate the concept behind “MILF.” It has no class.
I think it depends on the type of guy and where they are in their lives. If a guy is at an age or a place where family is appealing, it will probably make her more hot. A young guy out to chase only tail, not so much.
i think it’s because women with babies are seen as motherly, nurturing, loving, caring, soft, gentle, etc.
none of these really collide with ‘hotness’ ..
for sure she can still be attractive, but in a different way
No, but I think full smiles detract from most women’s hotness.
Not at all.
She looks great in the photo with her baby. ^_^
she is more attractive in the first photo. the child doesn’t interfere, but i’m a mom. =) the last two are just over-exaggerated efforts to be sexy. she does not need to pose that way. she IS beautiful but posing that way isn’t flattering at all.
@Morningstarrising - Yeah, I haven’t. lol. But you love your children, right! That’s what I meant by women who think their children are a burden.. those who don’t love their children. Sorry for the confusion. -____-
undoubtedly.
@drakonskry - yeah, she looks so middle aged
yes
I like the baby picture best!
being a girl, the maternal factor doesn’t really sway me in either direction..
but her face definitely looks the most naturally gorgeous in the first one!
depends on how she treats the child. but just the fact that she has a child? absolutely not.
@xpinaixstylesx - Oh yeah, absolutely, I love my children.
I was just confused on the way that you worded what you said. Because I think all mothers have at one time had “one of those days”.
No, but I can see why a person wouldn’t want to break up a home.
But hotness is dependant on the person, not on her kids.
Not as much as a facial piercings do.
no.
It depends on the woman. Age, definitely. Like… if you’re a 17 year old guy, are you gonna be more attracted to the 17 year old with the baby, or the one without?
I just think that mothers who take photos of themselves like that are shameful.
I don’t think just seeing her with a kid makes her less physically attractive, but I can see why I guy might be a less likely to feel attracted to her because if she has a kid, she’s either taken or a single mother. He probably doesn’t want to go for a woman who is already taken, and most guys realize a kid would change the dynamic of the relationship.
If I see a guy out with his kids and it looks like he’s having fun with them, I’ll think that’s really cool, but I’m not going to get a crush on him until I know for sure the kids aren’t his. I don’t want to be a homewrecker and I’m not ready to be an instant mother.
@venomous_poison - what’s wrong with her pictures? They look pretty normal to me. It’s not like she’s posing for a Playboy pinup poster.
What if the little boy in the picture was a cousin, or a friend’s child instead of her own? Then would she be hot?
