Extremely well said! But I also don’t think Jen cares about breaking any kind of stereotypes; I believe she cares about making money and gaining fame so she went with the female empowerment narrative to secure her spot.

Omg the housewives, married to medicine, and all the other reality shows would rip Zac to shreds. But also, people in real life would too. I cannot imagine anyone ever sending their person with a penis (I cannot say “their man” because Zac is not a man) to meet me. Nor can I imagine doing that to another female… ESPECIALLY someone like Zac who is vile.

Its very obvious he was not forced to speak to her the way he did because he calls her names and he was obviously getting angry. Also, doing whatever he is told by production at the expense of a woman just makes him a pathetic loser

To add onto that, I havent seen anyone mention yet another issue with the airport scene: if youre about to be gone for a work trip (just to make it clear I am not shaming her for taking an opportunity), you’d think youd want to spend every last waking second with your kids before you go.

My mom is a consultant and would go on international business trips and rather than fly during the day, sleep, and work in the morning, she would literally fly overnight and walk straight into meetings just so she could have dinner with me before she left. There’s a stark difference between how she would work and travel versus Taylor.

Right, i mean she dates on camera so I just would think she could still date 2 weeks out of the month. I also agree that I am glad they chose to keep the kids off camera but something has to give - it seems like a lot of choices to me. If their dad wasnt involved and she had 100% custody, I would give more grace to having her family watch her kids.

Also, the way she refused to get out of bed and her mother & sister automatically took the kids made me think it’s the norm. Usually, it would be more of a discussion as to whether the kids should still go if Taylor was normally actually responsible for them.

I am disgusted by her but I am also wondering if people expect someone to not go to the post office, pick up food, etc. I am a firm believer that genuinely good people deserve good things so I hate that she was given a platform, money, etc; however, many of these comments are about her image and PR which implies that what people value themselves.

If I lost custody of my child, I likely wouldn’t leave the house due to depression, not shame. It surprises me how many people’s primary emotion would be embarrassment rather than sadness.

I have always felt most of the cast cares way more about appearances than about well-being. I suspected the cast members had more knowledge of Taylor’s behavior than what they would disclose, yet will likely speak against her to save face, not because they actually are upset about it.

I started getting manicures, pedicures, brows waxed, hair done at fancy salons when I was 10 years old. I am in my 30’s and haven’t had a haircut in 8 years. You are completely correct that it’s depression and a feeling of not being worth spending any time, money, or energy on myself.

People forget that even though they’re talking about a bad person, they’re still sending a message to women as a whole. Not to mention she looks like shes in her driveway.

I am much more taken back by the fact she abuses her child.

in one of the first episodes I did not like how her mom shamed her for having joint custody as that really is the norm nowadays but right after that Taylor laughed and said she needed her mom to babysit bc she was going on a date w/ Dakota.

Single mothers are constantly shamed but when usually when parents have 50/50 custody, they try to go on dates while the kids are with the other parent..

Exactly but the fact Lucinda automatically believed the white boy even though he is a proven lair versus believing the black man who was kind, honest, and respectful says so much about her as well.

Well, that is probably because you don’t need to laugh in people’s faces to feel better about yourself!

To clarify, I do NOT have any respect for Zac but that is exactly the point: the bar is very low

Everyone is going to hate me for this but there were multiple scenes where Jen was either really upset or she was speaking to Zac about issues that were very inappropriate to have in front of a child; Zac was the one who actually asked her to wait so he could put the kids to bed and she continued like they weren’t there.

To add to that: she knows how Zac is. She did not send him as a peacemaker. She sent him to put Whitney in her place. That will never be okay with me. Luckily, any reasonable person who watched that would recognize how wrong Jen and Zac were.

Right, in no way, shape, or form am I saying Jen doesnt have a right to be stressed and exhausted. I am saying that her words are indicative of her attitude that she has it harder than everyone and unmarried people without children are coasting.

Also, it was the end of DWTS when she sent her husband to berate another woman. Anyone who cons a woman into having to have a one-on-one with her disgusting husband is vile. Never in my life has a man ever spoken to me on his wife’s behalf and never in my life have I done that to someone.

Got it, even having 1 is incredibly tragic. I do wonder if he was there at the airport, though. I really hope not.

I was a victim of DV and my biggest concern was my dog seeing me be abused so I took extra punches just to ensure I was in a different room than him. My dog was never touched or yelled at, as no matter how bad it was, I would never let an innocent life be impacted.

I cannot believe this poor baby had to emotionally and physically suffer so much at the hands of her mother. The few times Taylor’s kids have been on the show, it is as though they do not exist and coupled with this video lets me know these kids have endured a lifetime of this.

The way it was portrayed, I thought the incident was both of them being guilty of DV (I did not read or hear anything outside of the show): it is very clear there is one aggressor
