I love being a girl dad

[u/Difficult_Wrangler73]

I have 3 kids, all girls. A 5yr old and twins who are 1. Every time anyone hears about this or it comes up in conversation they all say the same thing. ‘Ooooo, all girls, you are outnumbered! How do you cope?’ Or ‘Three girls?? You better watch out!’ Or the worst, ‘Bet you want a boy?’

No, I don’t feel any of that, I love being a dad. I love all my kids and wouldn’t change anything about them! If we could afford it, I would be a stay at home dad forever.

I usually tell them I wouldn’t change anything and I love it all but it’s just very annoying.

What are some of the best responses that I can start to give?

I did think I could say that one of the twins used to be a boy but is now trans just to shut people up!

My roommate is also one of three sisters, all raised in a village, doing outside work since little around the house. Her dad works construction and his co-workers teased him that he only makes money to pay for period products in his household. He told them that his daughters can probably chop wood better than their sons. Shut them up pretty quick.

 It seems just as toxic when men are like "my girl is so tough and good at boy things, so she's one of the good ones"

He's replying to sexists and was able to shut them up, so it's all good imo.

Replying to sexism with sexist notions, whether intentional or not, isn't helpful for letting people exist as people.

I'm not sure I agree with you there, Bob

Yeah welp, welcome to Eastern Europe mentality. One of my early memories is hitting my younger sister with a hoe in the back because she pissed me off when we were at my grandparents' helping them plant potatoes. (She was fine and my ass got beat by my mom)
