Hallmark discrimination
6.19.2007

I hope all the dads out there had a nice Father's Day! I sent my Dad some chocolate goodies and a Hallmark card, but each time I go card shopping I'm noticing a bad trend - discrimination against only-child sons! The Father's Day section was almost 50% filled with those silly "From the both of us" cards, so those are right out for single only-kids like me. The next 25% are all daughter cards, because I guess Hallmark thinks only girls want to give their daddies nice cards. The last 25% is a smattering of step-dad cards, plus a whole bunch of cards that begin with "I know I never told you this before, but...", but since I'm in the habit of actually telling my parents I love them (what a shock), I can't use those either! Thankfully, I found something nice in the mere 5% of cards that apply to me, but I hope Hallmark starts making more cards that work for sons like me!
