Young Mom Goes Viral for Filming Thirst Trap Instead of Feeding Her Baby
Young mom prioritizing recording a thirst trap over breastfeeding her baby receives a flood of online comments.
A thirst trap is a fun slang term people use to describe a photo or video meant to get attention online, usually because the person looks attractive or confident in it.
When someone posts a thirst trap, they might be showing off a nice outfit, a good angle, or just feeling good about themselves and wanting others to notice. It’s called a “trap” because it often catches people’s attention quickly, especially those who might leave likes or compliments.
Simply put, a thirst trap is a post made to get noticed, admired, or appreciated, especially for how someone looks.
Recently, the Facebook page May Gustong I-post ‘To shared a video showing a woman recording a thirst trap on her cellphone while someone else looked after her baby. The post quickly went viral and gained various reactions from internet users.
In the video, the young woman can be seen striking suggestive poses in front of her phone camera while someone else was seen taking care of her child in the background. The uploader could be heard teasing the mother, saying that while she was busy making her video, someone else was left watching over her baby.
The woman simply laughed off the teasing and continued recording her video. Some netizens criticized her for prioritizing content creation over her child’s needs, while others defended her, saying that short moments of self-expression don’t necessarily define her as a bad mother.
