Etymology

This term originally meant the second term, mothers with just male children without any negative connotation. The first term that is derogatory was from a comment section in a TikTok video from @amandachristine saying that she loves all of her children equally but the youngest son, “just hits different.” This is where the more derogatory term of “boy mom” originates.
