Obviously we're all a bunch of deadsbeats

So there's this social networking site online. Called meetup. Basically it's any one person organizing a group of likeminded people to share events, activities, thoughts around a common interest. The one I belong to - loosely - is a moms group. The site remembers what you are interested in and forwards you a notice when a similar group in your area opens up.

So today, I checked email and saw the following:
Surrounding Boston Cities Working Mom's Meetup

Oh how great, I thought. A new group for working moms, that's a good idea. I know my friend Kim doesn't know a lot of moms, etc etc. I was very pro-group. Until I read the description.

Meet friendly local working moms to talk about your kids and have fun! Mom's groups are a great way to meet other mom's and give your child/ren the chance to meet new friends, but most of them are geared towards mom's that do not work. This group will schedule weekend activities so that working mom's can participate and get the chance to meet other working mom's in the area. The group welcomes working mom's with children of all ages!

See, not to be a jerk - but you never see SAHM's posting exclusive groups like this. All the groups I see say "All Welcome". Meanwhile, what's up with the "moms who do not work" comment? Try staying home full time, missy, and you tell me who's not working.
