Moms are the new sexy and I’m happy as hell about it

Who me? I’ll be digging past the worn out granny panties I’ve been living in for the last several years and rummaging around for the one last thong at the bottom of my underwear drawer. Then Imma shave my legs and put on some heels. Then I guess I’ll find a clean dress that fits, an actual pair of matching earrings … do my hair … put on some makeup …

Okay, but I could! Because moms are the new sexy. You heard it here first.

It’s not that women who happen to be mothers areĀ more sexy than other women who happen to not have any children; it’s that they’re in the running. Of course, this year they also happen to be winning.
Penelope Cruz sexiest woman alive
Penelope Cruz was just namedĀ EsquireĀ magazine’s sexiest woman alive for 2014. She also happens to be a 40-year-old mother of two,Ā  as every damn story about this makes sure to point out in the first paragraph.Ā But somehow Brad Pitt, sexy leading manĀ despite being a father of six, never seems to comes up. Of course mothers can be celebrity sex symbols. Mothers can also be senators, CEOs and fighter pilots and it does drive me crazy when a woman’s professional accomplishments are trumped by the fact of her motherhood. This Telegraph headline from earlier this year comes to mind.
