So in spite of the fact that all three moms on ANTM made the top four, the only woman who wasn’t a mom in that group wound up winning. I realize that there are plenty of other factors/reasons going into the choosing of a winner, but I want to pretend for a moment that this decision was all about Jaslene not having children where the other three did.
It sends the message that having a family, and in particular children, is an un-overcomable (not a word, but I hope you know what I mean) obstacle in the way of getting started in the modeling world. This phenomenon probably extends beyond just modeling- as I have seen with the opt-out revolution stuff and with the celebrity-actress mothers, it is hard to work in any field with a young child.
All I can say is that I was really hoping a mom would win this reality show too.
