“Oh, Sweatpants & Coffee? No. I never checked out the website. I thought it was just a mommy blog!” I didn’t know the woman very well, but I explained we are an online magazine focused on comfort, creativity, and inspiration. All the good stuff. That we have recipes and poetry and fiction and personal essays that can be sharp or funny or piercing or raw all of the above. We talk about books and TV and coffee and kindness and travel and cool products. We interview authors and actors and we geek out unashamedly over things we love. Not all of our staff are women. Not all of us are married. Not all of us are parents. Not all of us are straight. We’re not even all coffee drinkers or sweatpants wearers! If a man had a website and he sometimes wrote about his experiences as a father, would people think it was just a daddy blog? P.S. Mommy blogs are, in fact, awesome. They serve vital and robust purpose. They shouldnt be described as “just.” P.P.S. You should totally stop by.
