The MILF Movement

There is a movement taking over motherhood. It has nothing to do with staying at home or working, and everything to do with looking hot and loving it. Ultra-feminist at best, tacky at worst, the MILF movement is sweeping the nation. From coast-to-coast, online and off, mothers are trying their best at a chance to best to be sexy.
Two New York Magazine writers commented on this trend in a recent article. They question the movement and it’s timing “…why the hot mom and why now?” I agree with their rationale that is has something to do with women having babies later in life and the need to rebel against traditional mommy stereotypes. I think we can all agree that there’s nothing sexy about June Cleaver.
Or me. I am not MILF-y.
I may be at my pre-baby weight, and I may not look a day over 28 (I’m hanging on to my twenties, here, people.) But I’m nowhere near the hotness of Stifler’s mom or Kathleen Clearly of “The Wedding Crashers.” I could never utter the words “kitty cat” with a straight face. My chest is flatter than it was before I had my son and I only wear sweats to bed. I’m about as hot as Dora the Explorer. Thinking that I need to do something about my lack-o-sexiness, I decided to poke around town to see how I could improve my va-va-voom. The results? There’s lots you can do if you want to be a MILF in the Windy City.
- MILFs must have very toned abs. I need to spice up my workouts a bit, so I might listen to the pro Chicago trainer Jim Karas and try his “cardio free” diet. Or, I may just sit on my couch and watch the season finale of “The Bachelor.” Both, I assure you, will be equally stimulating for my heart.
- I don’t have very many MILF-y accessories, and I like to shop, so I may stroll to The Pleasure Chest in Lakeview. It caused waves when it moved to my ‘hood, but getting sexy without having to drive somewhere sounds very pleasurable to me.
- MILFs and strip teases go together like Barney and purple. So if I want to get sexy, I’d better learn how to move my booty. My friend tipped me off to Arabesque, also known as home of the burlesque dancer on “America’s Got Talent.” (You know you watched it too.) What size pasties do you think I’d wear?
- Finally, every good MILF needs a pouty lip. I’m all for the au natural look, and thanks to Annie at Time Out Chicago, I can get it with this incredible sounding new lip gloss. Plus, it’s called Oxymoron, which is what me trying to be a MILF really is.
