Today, I realized my mom is a big hypocrite for telling me sex is wrong and sinful outside marriage, because I just worked out from their marriage certificate my mom must have been pregnant with me in college, and I was born after they’d only been married for four weeks. FML

Today, I’ve been bricking it about telling my mom I’m pregnant but aren’t getting married to my boyfriend. My mom has a big thing about marriage. Then grandma told me mom’s just a hypocrite, because she got pregnant not only wasn’t she married, they had to do a DNA test to see who was my dad. FML

Today, I told my mom I was 3 months pregnant, expecting her to be happy. Instead, she screamed that I was no longer her daughter and she never wanted to see me again before throwing me out of her house, because I got pregnant out of wedlock. Nice math mom. I've been married for 5 months. FML
Today, my father informed me that I was born only because my mom lied about being on birth control. FML

Today, I told my parents I'm pregnant. I got a long lecture from my mom about using protection. It would have been fine hearing all that, but I'm turning 22, I moved out a few years ago, have a full time job with great benefits, and am getting married next summer. FML
Today, my mom shrieked in horror and burst into hysterical tears when I casually mentioned I was having sex. I've been married for three years. My wife and I have sex. Deal with it. FML

What you view as hypocrisy, she probably views as "trying to make sure my kid doesn't make the same mistakes I made."

As people grow older, they gain new knowledge & experience and may not be like they were in their younger days. However if you are an ADULT, and of sound mind to make your own decisions, do what is right for you.

That’s what we call experience. Though not all expériences must be taken into account.

"Do as they say, not as they do". That being said, the decision is yours.

Maybe she feels like a sinner for that and doesn't want you do the same thing she did... I dont necessarily agree, but moms say stuff to try to protect their kids from the "mistakes" they think they made themselves.

And that kind of speech is precisely why some teenage girls end up pregnant. Abstinence is not a solution, education is. I'll never understand how people don't get that...

How did it take you that long? Just seeing some wedding photos throughout life should have been enough.

Or maybe she's trying to save you from making some of the same choices she did, which made her life more difficult. Parents don't want their children making the sane mistakes they made when younger. So what often seems hypocritical is actually them trying to protect you. You'll understand this when you become a parent. You'll see parents aren't actually as stupid as their children think they are.

Lol same! Exactly 4 weeks! And now my mom's bitter that I had my first child by the age she was pregnant with her third, because I'm "supposed to be the ****-up" but instead I had the nerve to do better than her 🙃
