"I don’t want the responsibility of being a mother. I want to be the cool parent. I want to have as little responsibility as possible, and mothers don’t get that," she explained.

The video's comment section is full of women who are in total agreement with her.
"Never related to anything as much as this," one person said.
"I have two kids and I ALWAYSSSS say in my next life I’m coming back as a Dad!! In fact i was just telling my Gmom this yesterday!" someone wrote.
"Saving this answer for the next time I am asked that. Thanks," another person said.
"I’m 31, my therapist asked me if I ever wanted to have kids. I basically said, 'I would be a really good dad,'" a person wrote.
"As a mom I got it immediately ," someone commented.
